Arsenal started the 2020/2021 Premier League campaign with a comfortable 3-0 victory over newly-promoted Fulham at the Craven Cottage Stadium.
Former Chelsea winger, Willian made his debut alongside Gabriel, who also joined from Lille.
Alexander Lacazette opened the scoring in the eighth minute after a goal mouth scramble.
Willian shone on his debut for his new club by providing two assists, but Gabriel also got on the score sheet with his shoulder from a Willian corner to complete a sweet debut for the duo.
Aubameyang put the icing on the cake with a superb goal to give the Gunners a resounding 3-0 victory in their first league match of the season.
Willian is the first player to assist two goals on his Premier League debut for Arsenal since Ray Parlour in August 1992 against Liverpool.
Arsenal forward Alexandre Lacazette: “It was the best way to start the season. We wanted to win and have a clean sheet and respect what the coach wanted. Everyone is happy.
“He wants us to be perfect. We worked in the week for this kind of game. We have a lot of big ambitions. I want to help the team to be on top I know it is my job.
“I am really happy [at Arsenal]. It is only the press and other people that say I am not. I want to play and win titles. We want to be aggressive with and without the ball and improve every aspect of our game.”
Arsenal will welcome West Ham to the Emirates Stadium on September 19 in another London Derby in their next match.
