The onus fell upon Alexandre Lacazette to do the attacking duties as his partner-in-crime Aubameyang was not a part of the squad. But Lacazette was nowhere near to his usual self, and the 27-year-old missed two very vital chances, that could have proven to be game changers.

In the 40th minute, Laca's solo brilliance saw him ease past Bolly and Johny, but the Frenchman blasted his shot miles over the crossbar, and that could have been a change in momentum for Arsenal. Nketiah's introduction played an important part, as the youngster often troubled Willy Bolly, and he created a brilliant chance for Lacazette in the dying minutes of the game, which was yet again not put in the back of the net by Arsenal's sole striker.

Hopefully, Aubameyang is likely to return for the trip to Leicester, and it is going to be the same atmosphere at the King Power stadium like it was at Molineux last night. Lacazette and the others have to mentally be prepared for it, as Leicester are a much better attacking side than Wolves, who play to the opposition's weaknesses.
