"Eze, who had faced some scrutiny after being substituted early in the midweek draw against Brentford, responded in spectacular fashion. Starting in a central playmaker role, the England international dismantled the Wigan defence with a series of precise, eye-of-the-needle passes. He provided the direct assists for Arsenal's opening two goals, the first a clever ball for Madueke in the 11th minute and the second a perfectly weighted pass for Gabriel Martinelli just seven minutes later."
"He was unbelievable today. He pulled all the strings from the middle and had a hand in all the goals. I'm really pleased for him. "They can be tricky sometimes if you don't apply yourself properly, but that wasn't the case with us today" ?
