Arsenal have not found the net in their opening two games, against Sunderland and Stoke, since the departure of Robin van Persie.

"It is coming soon. We played well and had some good situations in front of goal," he said after the Stoke draw.

"We just have to score now – me too. It was a hard game against a big team. But I felt good in the game and we missed only one thing, a goal.”
