Fulham 1-5 Arsenal: 5 Hits and Flops

#1 Hit: Alexandre Lacazette

Morale boost: Lacazette, who has scored five in all comps this term, with his trademark celebration

He created one and could have scored a hat-trick himself during the Gunners' 2-0 win over Watford last weekend, but made no mistake with his efforts this time out.

His first was well-taken, having taken a brilliant touch to send Tim Ream one way and create space for himself to strike, wrongfooting a helpless Bettinelli at his near post. The second was hit sweetly and with more aplomb from range, blasting the ball towards the bottom corner despite the Englishman's best efforts.

It's a welcome goalscoring display from a striker who has been unlucky not to score on a handful of occasions already this term, whether that be through his own eagerness or poor finishing at vital moments.

Crucially, he didn't shy away from his defensive duties either - two tackles, one clearance and two fouls committed just proved he was more than happy to track back to help teammates out of possession. He only completed one dribble, having been fouled on three separate occasions, which just proves how tough he was for Fulham to continuously keep tabs on throughout, before being replaced by young compatriot Matteo Guendouzi with 10 minutes to play.

With games against Leicester, Crystal Palace, Sporting Lisbon twice (Europa League) Liverpool and Wolves all coming up in the next few weeks, supporters will be hoping this performance boosts the Frenchman's confidence after an encouraging start to the campaign.
