Alan Smith offers up four-word reaction to Arsenal result at Leicester
Arsenal put in a very impressive performance to see of Leicester City this afternoon, as goals from Gabriel and Emile Smith Rowe proved enough for the Gunners.
It was another excellent display from Mikel Arteta’s side. They were exciting in attack again, and looked very solid in defence as well. On the day, they just had too much for Leicester.
For Arsenal, it was another game where people were suggesting it was a real test for this improving young Gunners side. And just like they did against Aston Villa last time out, they passed the test with flying colours.
Some players excelled again. Aaron Ramsdale was the obvious shining light, while Gabriel and Ben White were both great in defence. In midfield, Thomas Partey did well, while Aubameyang, Saka, and Smith Rowe were a threat all day.
And former striker and now regular pundit Smith, took to to offer his immediate thoughts on the manner of the Arsenal win at Leicester.
Smith’s reaction is one that many Arsenal fans will echo. Leicester are a good team on their day, and the Gunners simply breezed past them.
TBR’s View: Arsenal coming good and don’t look like stopping
This was a huge test for Arsenal at Leicester today and to their credit, they came through it brilliantly. Mikel Arteta will be delighted, and rightly so.
The next test for Arsenal is finding consistency and ensuring they keep on winning games as they are. That’s where fans will then start to believe a run at the top four might really be on.
Of course, it’s still early in the season. But Arteta has definitely stumbled on a formation that works well. Saka and Smith Rowe are brilliant, and that’s feeding into the experience of Lacazette and Aubameyang.
