With 7 goals and 3 assists from 14 games in the league, Lacazette carries a significant goal threat, and he also links up the midfield and the wide men with his brilliant holdup play.

Having struck up a prolific partnership with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, the Frenchman has started the last 2 league games from the bench, owing to his injury and Aubameyang’s form as the central striker.

The Frenchman has had a telling impact as a substitute, scoring in the North London derby and playing a vital role in the second goal against The Red Devils.

The forward is one of the players currently in the hippie-crack storm, where The Gunners' stars were seen consuming Nitrous Oxide from a balloon. In spite of that, Lacazette may be handed a start against Huddersfield in his preferred role as the central striker, and the onus is on him to deliver.
