Ramsdale - 7 - composed and inspired confidence.
Tierney - 5 - Another pretty poor game. Crossing was poor and positioning suspect
White - 8 **MOTM** - class playing out from the back, was the main organiser of the defence talking all the way through. Great reading of the game
Gabriel - 7 - good. Worked well with White
Tomiyasu - 8 - Very good indeed today - energy, aggression, good recovery on the 2 occasions he was caught out of position. Very good in the air.
Lakonga - 7 - oozes class on the ball. Another composed performance. It is so good to see our players so comfortable and concentrated in possession
AMN - 4 - poor decision making all game
Saka - 6 - Not at his best. Some poor passing and found it hard to really get behind the defence.
Odegaard - 6 - Bit of a 'meh' game. Didn't do anything particularly well.
Pepe - 6 - frustrating performance. Busy and started well, but his control was abysmal and too many moves broke down because of him
Aubameyang - 6 - for is goal, but his finishing was again poor and he didn't do well enough to create passing lanes from midfield
Partey - 8 - Excellent passing long and short - good decision making on when to do both
ESR - 7 - Looked very good driving at the defence again and creating danger
Soares - N/A
Arteta - 8 - Brave line up, team looked well set up and substitutions proved decisive
Ref - 7 - didn't cheat - a welcome change.
