#7 Alexandre Lacazette (Arsenal FC)

The Auba-Laca bromance never ends!

Words are not enough to describe the amount of love the Gunners have for Alexandre Lacazette. The Frenchman has been a fan favourite since day one, and he is only getting better and better with time.

Although Lacazette always enjoys playing with his partner-in-crime Aubameyang, the presence of the Gabonese striker forces the Frenchman to play a deeper role. Aubameyang is a central striker who gets behind the defence with ease, something not every striker is capable of doing. Lacazette, on the other hand, tracks back deep, draws fouls and forces the defenders to commit mistakes inside or near the penalty box thanks to his incredible ball control and tailor-made dribbling skills.

The deeper role of playing as a false nine more often than as a striker has helped Lacazette develop his game as he has bagged 20 goals+assists in the league already, 2 more than his combined goals+assists last season.

Unai Emery has often benched him for Aubameyang, but that hasn't demotivated him at all. He shares a special bonding with Aubameyang and they are arguably the best-attacking duo across England when they play together.
