Alexandre Lacazette has a five-word message for Arsenal youngster
Emile Smith-Rowe took his tally for the 2021-22 se🐼ason to nine goals on Boxing Day as Arsenal cruised past Norwich City, winning 5-0. Alexandre Lacazette has heaped praise on his Arsenal teammate, on Instagram.
Smith-Rowe is becoming renowned as s♊omewhat of a super sub. The 21-year-old has now failed to start for Arsenal in the Premier League since scoring in the 3-2 defeat to Manchester United, at Old Trafford.
Missing the game against Everton, he was an unused substitute in the 3-0 win over Southampton. Since then, he has come on as a sub against West Ham, Leeds and Arsenal – scoring i▨n all three, despite a combined 44 minutes.
While he might feel harshly placed on the substitutes bench, it seems to be doing the trick for the Gunners. Smith-Rowe is shining when used, and now has an impressive eight goals and two assists in 1🐓7 league games.
In all competitions, he h🔜as nine in 20. The Arsenal wonderkid posted on Instagram after netting Arsenal’s fifth against Norwich – tapping 💞in Nicolas Pepe’s deflected shot.
Lacazette message to Smith-Rowe: Arsenal star best from the bench?
Smith-Rowe’s form is easil de💯serving of a start. But has it got to the point where he is impressing so much fr𝔉om the bench, that he is becoming even more effective as a substitute?
Could it be, that Smith-Rowe might not actually start matches because he is ♛a more-effective weapon from the bench? The more he shines as a sub, the more Mikel Arteta will be tempted to use him sparingly.
Lacazette, though, was full of praise for Smith-Rowe on Instagram – posti༺ng a five-word comment on the England star’s Instagram. He told Smith-Rowe not to change.
