Chamakh is Two for Two

Marouane Chamakh has had a great start with his new club.  The striker scored a penalty in the last game against Neuseidl 1919 after being hauled down in the area.
In today's match vs. AC Milan in the Emirate's Cup, Chamakh scored a beauty after being fed by Andreiy Arshavin in the 36th minute.  His mature play and skillful moves earned him the title of Man of the Match in his debut at The Emirates.  Gunner fans warmed to him quickly and gave him a standing ovation when he was subbed off in the second.
It will be interesting to see how he pairs with Robin van Persie (as Wenger has hinted he will) upon his return from extended vacation after the World Cup.
