Arsenal fans are excited by the prospect of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette spearheading their attack in the season ahead.
The pair have struck up a friendship off the pitch, but can they strike up an effective partnership on it?
We examine how they fared together last season and assess the ways in which Arsenal's new head coach Unai Emery is most likely to use them.
The story so far
Aubameyang and Lacazette had to wait for their first start together following the former's arrival from Borussia Dortmund on the final day of the January transfer window. Aubameyang initially got the nod up front, with Lacazette benched, and the Frenchman was sidelined by a knee injury before he could win back his place in the team.
It was not until Arsenal's Premier League trip to Newcastle in April that they were named in the same starting line-up, with Lacazette deployed through the middle and Aubameyang stationed on the left of a 4-3-3 formation. It only took 14 minutes for them to successfully combine, with Aubameyang crossing for Lacazette to volley home.
