Arsenal came from behind to secure a much-needed 1-3 win against West Ham United at the London Olympic Stadium on Monday night in the Premier League. Goals from Gabriel Martinelli, Nicolas Pepe and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ensured that the Gunners secured their first win in the English top-flight since October 6, 2019. While Pepe was the key player for Arsenal, another player who made the headlines was young French midfielder - Matteo Guendouzi.
