Substitutes

6.5. Came on just before half-time. Made some really excellent saves to keep his team in the game, including one from a Troy Deeney volley that was truly phenomenal. He did punch a few crosses and set-pieces clear, but I have to dock him slightly for the one panicked collection in which he got nowhere near the ball when he tried to catch it. Still, this is his chance to seize the starting role and not relinquish it.. SUB. Arsenal. BERND LENO

6.5. Provided a much-needed spark when he came on. A lovely cross for the first goal which Lacazette did enough to cause Cathcart a problem. Looks like a much sharper player under Emery, which is nice to see.. SUB. Arsenal. ALEX IWOBI

There is no rating for Danny Welbeck as he came on too late to effectively evaluate his play.
