Theo Walcott enjoyed a cheeky dig at Arsenal teammate Mesut Ozil after victory over Ludogorets.
Ozil hit a second-half hat-trick for the rout.
But Walcott aimed a cheeky jibe in his team-mate's direction before hailing his new-found aggression.
The Arsenal man said: "I could really throw him under the bridge here, first half he wasn't around though was he?
"No, he's a fantastic professional, fantastic player. He showed me how to score hat-trick anyway.
"He's worked really hard, he's looking strong and fit and you can see there's a new aggressive level about his play at this moment in time. He's ruthless in front of goal and chipping in with a lot more goals than he has, so hopefully it can continue."
