The 22-year-old rounded off a team effort to get his side back in contention against the Blues
Alex Iwobi’s goal against Chelsea is so far the longest move for a goal in the 2018-19 Premier League season.
The midfielder struck his first goal of the campaign as Arsenal bowed to a 3-2 defeat at the Stamford Bridge in Saturday’s English top-tier encounter.
Iwobi rifled a cutback from Henrikh Mkhitaryan past Kepa Arrizabalaga to keep the scoreline levelled going into half-time.
And the Nigeria international’s effort ended a sequence of 19 passes, involving 10 of Unai Emery’s men, except Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, to become the longest move so far in the league this term.
Arsenal sit 17th in the log, having lost their first two opening games, and will hope to bounce back when they lock horns with West Ham United at the Emirates next Saturday.

Aubamiyang is a very big disappointment and also Lacazzette also gave a wrong that caused the 3rd goal.but arsenal still need defence.there is no defender.we cannot wait to welcome Kolscielny back into the team.

Arsenal could do better provided the manager pairs the rightful players. Ozi and Mustfi should now come from the bench. The two players ate not contributing much to the success of the team. Give the young players chance and see then stuff that they are made of. Arsenal defensive problem is far from being solved. Rotate the defence line in he next game and see what will happen.
Ya but Emery got two huge games as his first games. He needs to get time. arsenal have to give him a year to implement his style. He just needs time.

Arsenal has always been a team that passes the ball around well. This is expected really.
