#4 Best team performance: Arsenal
Match: Arsenal vs. Bournemouth
Arsenal shook off their ‘November curse’ in style by putting in an impressive showing against Eddie Howe’s Bournemouth at the Emirates.
The Gunners started off on a high, with Sanchez capitalising on a mistake by Steve Cook to open the scoring within minutes.
However, the Cherries were awarded a dubious penalty, and things were back on level terms. Despite playing an eye-catchy spell for a few minutes thereafter, Bournemouth failed to score from two mouth-watering chances.
Arsenal came back into the game strongly, thanks to the dynamic Alexis Sanchez and the workhorse Elneny, who were ably supported by the rest of the team. Mesut Ozil, Granit Xhaka, Petr Cech, Theo Walcott, Laurent Koscielny all played their part, and so did the substitutes.
The introduction of Giroud proved crucial, as the Frenchman turned in an assist for the Gunners’ third goal of the evening – a tap-in by Sanchez.
Honourable mentions: Chelsea, Manchester United
