Yup, a great start - but he will have to score a lot to negate our dodgy defence !

You could see that a better team would have got through our Mf.

We still don't have a shield in Mf and hopefully we can get away with not having defensive cover for the remainder of the season

Offside goals

He will hate VAR

A ball player like nzonzi would have been a good addition

I loved his runs into the 6 yard box and also how he constantly kept dragging defenders with him.

It won't take us long to coach that out, though.

N’Zonzi is garbage man. Sevilla tried to bin him for a reason. If we are gonna bring in players like Aubameyang then why can’t we bring in top players in other positions. Seen we have been linked with Oblak which would be a great signing. We then need to make a massive upgrade on Xhaka and if there is money left over for a top defender like Manolas then go get him.

Fk these garbage stop gap signings like N’Zonzi and Evans

Hopefully, at his age we won't force him to change his game much.

Didn't really sink in that we'd signed him until the game started. Brilliant player, exactly what we've been missing up front. Combination of power, pace, finishing and decent link up.

Where does lacazette go from here?

Yeah promising start. Will definitely give spurs a tough challenge.

Very impressed with Mhkitaryan as well. He was involved in everything, and his work rate was better than I was expecting. Let’s hope they both keep it up

Had a decent first game. But Mkhitaryan had a great game.

Was good in the first half as the whole team but not involved in the second half. Dont know what the OP have watched. Should have make an article about Mhkit instead. The real goat.

Nzonzi

We'll end up signing him.

You want Xhaka off us? Maybe take Welbck too? Well pay you 😂

Mate do we look like a club that want your cast offs?

How much?

Aubameyang didn't even touch the ball in the second half. Mkhitaryan was the man

Miki was brilliant this article should be about him

Miki crosses are pin point in situations where others players hit and hope

Still has a big role to play. Europa league is our best chance of CL football next season so we need Lacazette to find form fast

Lacazette started well too in august...hasn't lasted

Lacazette didn’t start well. At the start of his goal drought I was more optimistic about Lacazette than when he was scoring the odd goal at the start of the season because his all round game was very good and it was a matter of time til it paid off.

Worried for him now though because it just isn’t happening for him and Auba looks so much a better fit than him.

Won’t be surprised if we use him in the summer as a makeweight for Oblak

Where are the Oblak rumours coming from? Last I heard they were coming from an unreliable spanish outlet

And you make that out after one game, right?
