Arsenal 4-1 West Ham: 5 Talking Points

#4 Monreal is now a reliable steward in the Arsenal side

Consummate finish by the left-back.

The Spaniard is slowly growing into one of the most reliable men in an Arsenal shirt these days. After a timid start to life in England, when he arrived along with Santi Cazorla from Spain, he has grown into one of the favourites of the home crowd - regularly putting in sturdy performances and chipping in with important goals in Cup finals and the like.

Another terrific performance put in by the left-back on the night, igniting the spark that eventually burnt the visitors down. A terrific left foot volley to get things underway for the Gunners. He has surly become indispensable to the Arsenal cause.
