Arsenal have started this season well, despite an early defeat to Liverpool. They won their opening Champions League game, 2-0 against Athletic Club, and their most recent showed plenty of desire to claim a point at home to Manchester City, with a Gabriel Martinelli goal in injury time. This game delivered more injury woes for the Gunners, with Noni Madueke picking up a knee injury.

Another signing was Madueke from Chelsea, and the England international has impressed so far, with the Arsenal boss describing him as an “unbelievable” player.
Madueke was causing Nico O’Reilly a number of problems at the Emirates on September 21 and was unlucky not to score before being substituted at halftime.

Madueke has appeared in six games so far this season and has proven to be a great outlet for the Gunners. His pace, directness, and silky skills have seen him impress for Arsenal. He also shone on international duty, scoring for England against Serbia.
