Viktor Gyökeres will return to Arsenal in confident mood after setting a new Nations League record with four goals in four games for Sweden over the international break.
Gyökeres was on target to give Sweden a 1-0 win over Romania in Bucharest on Monday night, extending his scoring streak in the competition to seven straight games.
The 28-year-old, who signed for Arsenal from Sporting Lisbon in a £64 million ($85m) deal last summer, has been used sparingly so far this season by Gunners boss Mikel Arteta, making just two substitute appearances in the Premier League.
Gyökeres, though, showed few signs of a drop in confidence over the extended international window with goals in each of the fixtures, which started with a wins over Romania and Poland in Stockholm before a 1-1 draw away to Bosnia and Herzegovina as Sweden went top of Group B4.
With Germany forward Kai Havertz picking up a hamstring issue early in the break and returning to Arsenal for further assessment, Gyokeres could be brought back in to lead the Gunners' attack when Premier League action resumes against Leeds on Saturday.
"That [the goals for Sweden] means we win three games and draw one. It is a good start to the Nations League this year and for me it feels very good," Gyökeres told reporters, as quoted by SVT Sport.

Arsenal defender Riccardo Calafiori got his first goal for Italy in their 3-1 win over Turkey in Bologna.
Calafiori, who scored for Arsenal after only 24 seconds in the Community Shield win over Manchester City, is hoping to continue to make plenty of contributions in the opposition box.
"Last year, I was unlucky and I was close to at least five or six goals. This year the season started quite well, but obviously, beyond the numbers, I am interested in the contribution I give to the team," Calafiori said in an interview with Rai Sport.
"I try to be well physically -- in the end that is what matters, because when I am okay I can help in so many ways."
Versatile full-back Calafiori revealed Arteta has encouraged him to make the most of his attacking instincts.
"I spoke to the coach and he himself told me that if I have this impulse to go and attack the spaces I have to do it, because it comes naturally to me," he said.
