Attacking Midfielders

Arsenal. HENRIKH MKHITARYAN. 2.3. Doesn’t belong. Has had so much trouble gelling this season and whatever gains I thought he was making were lost in this one. Was more of a liability than anything else. Took seven shots, only one was on target, his touch was horrible. Had a couple of good runs in open space, but anyone can run in open space. Lost the ball nine times all on his own. That’s more than the rest of the front four combined. Troubling times for the Armenian. Have no idea how he was left on for the full 90.. SUB

Arsenal. ALEX IWOBI. 6.8. Tried things, but few of those things came off. It was a really hit and miss day for the Nigerian. Combined well enough with Kolasinac, but never provided the same threat. The one thing that <em>did</em> come off, however, was the beautiful ball that set Kolasinac up for the goal. That alone buoyed his rating, but overall, was hoping he’d do more.. AMR
