Arsenal forward Alexandre Lacazette has revealed the backing that Unai Emery gave him ahead of his introduction against West Ham.
Lacazette was brought off the bench at half-time against West Ham, with Arsenal 1-0 down at the time.
The Frenchman then impressed as Arsenal went on to win the game 3-1 and secure their first win under the tutelage of Unai Emery.
Speaking to The Mirror, Lacazette said this:
What I do is different to everyone else. I just want to play and help my team all the time.
When you come off the bench you have to be ready for your team-mates, it is what I tried to do and obviously it helped us to get the win.
Lacazette is yet to score a goal for Arsenal this season, after scoring 17 goals in all competitions last campaign.
The manager just told me to play my game and said we will win if I play well.
The French international scored 14 Premier League goals, as he was often left to come off the bench to make an impact.
