The time has come to cast your votes again and help determine who should be crowned our men’s Player of the Month for October!
As usual, there are four contenders for the prize, and whoever polls the most votes from our supporters will be presented with the trophy.
Here are the quartet up for our latest accolade:
Kai Havertz
Kai continued his fine goalscoring form by netting the opening goal against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League and then followed that up by scoring against Southampton, the seventh successive game he’d netted at Emirates Stadium.
He would round off the month with a thumping header against Preston North End to move onto seven goals for the campaign so far, and keep us interested in all three competitions we’ve entered so far.
Gabriel Martinelli
After rediscovering his scoring touch in September, Gabi carried that into October and netted a crucial goal to put us in front against Southampton as the Saints threatened to cause a shock.
He also popped up with another vital moment to hand us a second successive win in the Champions League when his strike hit the post and went in off Shakhtar Donetsk goalkeeper Dmytro Riznyk to hand us a 1-0 success against the Ukrainian champions.
Thomas Partey
Thomas continues to be a huge influence in our midfield, and featured in all six matches during the month as we battled in the league, Europe and League Cup. Patrolling the middle of the park, he helped us keep PSG and Shakhtar at bay as we remain water-tight in the Champions League.
With injuries biting, he has also been excellent filling in at right-back, and against Liverpool, he became the first Gunner to record over 3 fouls won, 5 tackles, 10 duels won and 75 touches in a Premier League match for nearly five years.
Bukayo Saka
Bukayo has already reached 10 goal involvements in the Premier League in just eight games, with four of those coming in October. A stunning performance saw him score one goal and create two more against Southampton, while his strike against Liverpool was rewarded with a nomination for the Premier League Goal of the Month.
He was also included on the shortlist for the league’s monthly award, while he also shone in the Champions League, netting a free-kick against PSG to help seal our 2-0 win.
