Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored a hat-trick as we eased into the third round of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night, courtesy of a 6-0 win at West Bromwich Albion.
On a near-perfect evening during which Aaron Ramsdale marked his Gunners debut with some fines saves and a clean sheet, and Martin Odegaard celebrated his return with a glorious backheel assist, our captain – making his first start of the campaign – took home the matchball after a typically-clinical performance in front of goal.
Nicolas Pepe, Bukayo Saka and Alexandre Lacazette added further gloss to the scoreline against a young Baggies side who carved out some decent openings of their own, but had no answer to the attacking dynamism of Aubameyang et al.
Auba had given West Brom an early warning, getting in behind and marginally taking the ball out of play before crossing for Pepe to knock home from close range.
The hosts didn’t heed their reprieve and fell behind after 17 minutes, Aubameyang tapping home from close range after Alex Palmer pushed Saka’s initial effort into his path.
Odegaard went close to adding a second midway through the half, hitting the post from a tight angle, while Palmer raced from his goal to prevent Aubameyang from taking the ball around the goalkeeper after he had accelerated clear of the hosts’ inexperienced backline.
Despite Arsenal threatening sporadically, it looked as though West Brom’s young side would go into the break just a goal behind. Enter Aubameyang. Mohamed Elneny’s slide-rule pass sent Pepe clear and, though he was denied by the frame of the goal, Auba was once more perfectly placed to finish from close range.
There was still time for Arsenal to add a third before the break – Aubameyang turning provider by acrobatically teeing up Pepe to sweep home from inside the six-yard box after another lightning quick break.
It took just five minutes after the restart for a now rampant Arsenal to add a fourth. Odegaard took centre stage, delightfully backheeling the ball through to the onrushing Saka, who finished clinically after Aubameyang – in an offside position – had intelligently left the ball.
Just after the hour, Aubameyang completed his hat-trick in style, curling into the top corner from just inside the area.
Lacazette completed the scoring soon after, firing home Pepe’s inviting low cross just two minutes after replacing Granit Xhaka.
Ramsdale – impressive on his first appearance – saved well from Taylor Gardner-Hickman in the closing stages as we completed our first victory of the season in emphatic fashion.

I VERY VERY LIKE ARSENAL
very very goooooooooooooooooooooooooood
This should be Arsenal's Best XI in attack going forward. Keep Saka on the left, Pepe on the right, Auba up front and Odegaard through the middle. ESR can play LW or CAM occasionally but i wouldnt guarantee a regular starting position.
Josh and Stan Kroenke if you are serious about getting the Arsenal fans onside you must sack Arteta, Vinai, and Edu immediately. Edu's comments on sky sports as Arsenal's Technical director were absolutely disgusting. How can the technical director of Arsenal Football Club come out and say that he doesn't want to finish in the top 4, top 6, top 8 or even the top 10 – that comment in itself is a sackable offence without all the other incompetence that he has been responsible, and the inappropriate behaviour of him, and his wife (giving the finger to supporters). Disgusting. If you don't want to do sell the club who wants to run this club properly or you will never ever be welcome at this club, and you are as disgusting as all the incompetent fools that you have employed
Obviously trading in Bitcoin is as risky as possible that's the reason you need to trade with a professional broker, I'm currently investing with expert Bernard's and ever since I started he has never failed to deliver and to be honest I would say he is the most sincere broker I have ever known.
The crypto market will come back to its normal state, so going into it now that it is low is the best.
This is helpful, thanks….gotta message him right away

6-0 against a reserve West Brom side isn't something to brag about or shout from the rooftops. But a win is a win and winning breeds confidence.
If you want to rise, join Aubameyang and Andrea Belotti
