Tony Cottee reviews Arsenal’s game against Nottingham Forrest…

Tony Cottee was on hand to analyse Arsenal emphatic win against Nottingham Forrest in the EFL Cup on Tuesday night and the former West Ham man was impressed by what he saw.

Lucas Perez and Granit Xhaka starred for us, with the latter seriously knocking on Arsene Wenger’s door to start on Saturday against Chelsea.

Xhaka dominated the game with his possession, but Cottee was more impressed with Lucas having seen him for the first time against the Championship side.

“He’s quite a lightweight player, the sort of Arsenal player you’d expect,” Cottee told the host.

“He certainly looks like he can finish, lead the line well, he certainly looks a decent player.”
