No. 10 and Striker

4.0. Another very poor performance from Ramsey. I don’t think he’s played well yet this season and the advanced midfield role really doesn’t suit him. The problem is that he and Ozil don’t work in the same midfield three because of a lack of balance and defensive cover. Emery may have to choose between the two of them because this current system is hurting both of their effectiveness right now.. CAM. Arsenal. AARON RAMSEY

7.5. Hard working and industrious in the first half, Lacazette’s quality improved drastically in the second. His spatial awareness is excellent, his hold-up play is neat and tidy, and the first-time flicks that he provides to running teammates can be deadly. A little unfortunate not to have scored but seems to have established himself as the starting centre-forward, which is a good thing.. ST. Arsenal. ALEXANDRE LACAZETTE
