Some Arsenal fans have rated Ghana prospect, Eddie Nketiah, as better than Manchester City's Erling Haaland and Liverpool's Darwin Nunez following his two goals that helped Arsenal defeat Oxford United 3-0 in the FA Cup on Monday.
The English player of Ghanaian descent, Eddie Nketiah, struck twice in the second half after Mohammed Elneny had scored the first goal to help Arsenal to a comfortable 3-0 win over Oxford United.
Nketiah’s impressive performance caught the attention of his club fans, who took to social media to express their excitement about their striker and rated him as one of the best in the Premier League.
Although Norwegian striker Erling Haaland has scored 21 league goals from 16 matches while Liverpool's DarwinNunez has 5 goals from 13 matches, Arsenal fans believe Nketiah, who has scored 7 goals in 23 matches, is far better.
Below are some comments from Arsenal fans:
If Erling Haaland works hard enough, he might reach Eddie Nketiah's level #OXUARS - @SoletheBanker
Nketiah/Haaland competition is what everyone wants. - @MandelaMinutes
In terms of overall ability, beyond goals, I don’t see how Haaland is better than Nketiah. - @Footbollistic

Nketiah is far better than Nunez, if you disagree, you can argue with your ancestors. - Kenneth Appiahgyei
