Arsenal: Oleksandr Zinchenko's outrageous nutmeg in 4-2 win vs Leicester

Around this time last year, everything was going wrong at Arsenal.

Mikel Arteta’s side lost their first three games of the 2021/22 Premier League campaign, failing to score a single goal and conceding nine in the process.

Things looked incredibly bleak back then, but there’s now a cloud of positivity hanging over the north London club after an impressive start to the new season.

Zinchenko’s partnership with young sensation Gabriel Martinelli is also blossoming nicely, as was highlighted in one brilliant moment involving the pair.

At the start of the second half when Arsenal were leading 2-0, Zinchenko managed to feed his teammate right by the touchline with one of the best nutmegs we’ll see in the whole of the 2022/23 season.

“He’s incredible… he’s incredible,” Walker said about Zinchenko in a recent interview with famous
