"Eze set the ball rolling in a comfortable 2-0 victory for the Gunners against Bayer Leverkusen with a blistering thump from the edge of the box. The emphatic nature of that finish stole the focus, that the summer recruit was even starting could be viewed as an individual triumph."
"Since bagging a brace against Tottenham Hotspur in N17, Eze enjoyed a run of seven starts in eight, the only blemish on that record an FA Cup tie against Mansfield Town which saw him come off the bench to score anyway."
"Eze was nailed on to line up at Wembley against City until misfortune intervened. It got lost in the fog of his heroics but Eze came off against Leverkusen after sustaining a knock."
