Arsene Wenger celebrated his 18th year at the Arsenal helm with an impressive 4-1 victory over Turkish giants Galatasaray.
Danny Welbeck grabbed a hat-trick to announce himself on the Gunner scene following his £16million summer move from Manchester United, while fellow new-boy Alexis Sanchez etched himself onto the scoresheet too.
Wojciech Szczesny saw red late on allowing Burak Yilmaz to convert from the penalty spot, but there was no spoiling the night for Welbeck, Wenger or the Gunners who took second spot in Group D following Dortmund’s 3-0 win over Anderlecht.

Many fans were perhaps a little disappointed at the final whistle because we had gone ahead with 20 minutes left, however, a draw against the champions is a good result and one the team can draw confidence from.
In many respects we were lucky not to have our point stolen from us at the end, yet Danny Welbeck was so unlucky not to see his chip bounce into Joe Hart's net.
Ultimately the draw was a fair result, and on the whole the arsenal performance was one of the best we have seen this season.
It's time to push on from here though. 20 games in a row unbeaten at the Emirates, let's start winning more now!

Wojciech Szczęsny – 7 - Saved us at the end and did very little wrong. It would be unfair to blame him for either of the goals but could have possibly reached the equaliser, which was a shocking bit of defending all round. His distribution was as wayward was ever, and Ospina will eagerly be waiting his opportunity to shine.

Arsenal managed a 1-1 draw with Leicester City in what was a performance fans are becoming more and more used to seeing. Despite there being positives as there usually are with the Gunners, they left the field with a result and a performance that aren’t good enough.
Sanogoals
His own twitter handle embraces his nickname but at what point will Sanogo’s lack of confidence in front of goal begin to concern the manager. Arsene clearly has an immense amount of belief In Yaya and it’s not without reason.

A frustrating performance saw Arsenal draw 1-1 at the King Power Stadium against a resolute Leicester. Arsenal had their fair share of shots, 24, but couldn’t find the target on more than one occasion.
Leicester held their own superbly as they used their share of possession to maximum effect and looked quite dangerous on the counter.
Player Ratings
Szczesny - 7 - Played well throughout the game. Distributed the ball well and made a couple of good saves. Most notably a full stretch diving save from James Vardy’s shot in the second half to keep Arsenal in the game at 1-1.
