da spicy bet: Is this Arsenal’s new striker?
da marjack bet: Well Gunners supporters on the internet certainly think so.
Mathieu Flamini was seen as a player surplus to requirements by manager Arsene Wenger, and was expected to be sold during the summer with the likes of Galatasaray and Besiktas both keen on the Frenchman.
But, Arsenal and interested parties couldn’t agree a deal, so Flamini was stuck at the Emirates with little hopes of playing a major part this season.
That seems that have changed.
Flamini was given a starting role for the club in the Capital One Cup North London Derby clash against Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday, and wow did he take his opportunity to show his worth.
The former AC Milan midfielder put Spurs to the sword with two goals, first a clinical rebound from an Alex Oxlade Chamberlain shot, and a brilliantly taken volley for the second.
Gunners supporters couldn’t hide their delight on social media, with many of them even saying that he should replace Olivier Giroud to lead the line!
Let’s take a look at the best tweets.
