It was telling that Noni Madueke’s name was being chanted by Arsenal fans inside the Emirates Stadium moments before they went ahead against Nottingham Forest.

The winger was Arsenal’s brightest spark in the first half, and had just left Dan Ndoye in his wake with one of many dribbles into the Forest penalty area.

By the end of the first half, no player on the pitch had attempted or completed more dribbles than Madueke (five attempted and four completed).

He may not have scored or assisted, but Madueke was just as dangerous in the second half, and showed some variation to his game too.
