Eddie Nketiah is undoubtedly in one of his best moments at Arsenal. The English striker, who did not enjoy a major role in his first few seasons at Arsenal, is finally a key player for Mikel Arteta.

The 24-year-old striker, who was once criticised for taking the legendary No. 14 worn by Thierry Henry during his time at Arsenal, played 39 games for the Gunners last season, 19 starts, scoring nine goals and providing two assists.

During this season Arteta has shown his confidence in the English attacker, starting him in 3 of the 5 games played by the North London side at the start of the season.

Due to his goal scoring form, Nketiah has been rewarded with a call up to the Three Lions. Take a look at England's new weapon.
