Mikel Merino's impressive debut season with Arsenal is continuing apace.
The Spain international has become an integral component, acting as a makeshift striker, as Mikel Arteta's side attempt to fight on two fronts heading into the current campaign's final weeks.
But Merino is fast becoming the Gunners' man of the moment after opening the scoring in Tuesday's Premier League encounter with London counterparts Fulham.
That effort took his tally to sixth goals in his last ten outings for club and country.
It also confirmed his most prolific return in a domestic season to date.
