The EPL's joint-top goalscorer continues to produce the goods when his team need him most as Arsenal secured a crucial victory over Bournemouth
Arsenal returned from their two-week international break looking to extend their unbeaten run in all competitions to 17 games, but faced a tricky game against Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.
On paper, there were just four points between the two sides going into the match and Unai Emery's side were rocked by the news that Alexandre Lacazette wouldn't feature due to a minor injury. Star man Mesut Ozil was surprisingly left on the substitutes’ bench while Emery opted for three defenders at the back, with Sokratis starting alongside Shkodran Mustafi and Rob Holding.
