RAAAAAATTTTTINNNGGGGGGSSSS (as the late Brendan would say...)
8.5 Kelleher - Couple of sloppy balls from the back knock a point off, otherwise almost a faultless display. Great finger tip save from the free kick and another couple of great saves at 1-0
8.5 Robertson - Kept Saka quiet, which is very hard to do.
6 Matip - Not his best performance, rightly subbed at half time
(8 Konate) - The man is a man mountain... thou shall not pass!! Almost scored an unbelievable header too
8 Virgil - One of his best performances for a while, Lacazette was feeding off scraps
9 Trent - 2 assists, a menace going forward, Martinelli had him on toast early on, and was a constant danger throughout, however it was 50/50 after the first goal.
8.5 Fabinho - What a player, that saving tackle was sublime.
8 Henderson - See Virgil above, filled in for Trent when he meandered forward.
8 Jones - I didn't get all the hate for him last night, until their 18 yard box, he didn't put a foot wrong all game. Some of the misplaced passes were frustrating, but that comes with 'match fitness'. Was giving Arsenal all kind of fits with his energy and creativity outside the box.
6.5 Gordon - First 15 was a struggle, the final 10 were also a struggle after his miss. Sandwiched in between was a solid performance, one where he'll watch the tape back and be proud of and learn from.
(7 Minamino) - I thought he played well when he came on was every bit as dangerous as Curtis outside the box
9.5 Jota - 2 shots, 2 goals the second was outstanding - I'm not convinced the first was a mis-hit. constant threat. MOTM
8 Firmino - a delicious flick for the first goal build up, and always wanted the ball. Fun Bobby at his best.
