8.2. Very, very good at winning the ball back, but was shocking poor at keeping it. That didn’t matter though, because when the game got into crunch time, Torreira was the heartbeat of the club, not for the first time. His goal… I don’t even know what to say about it. I was giggling like a child. I don’t think Spurs are used to us having a player like him. Such a blessing to have. Play him forever.. CM. Arsenal. LUCAS TORREIRA

Arsenal. GRANIT XHAKA. 8.0. Such a solid match from the captain. This was your typical anti-Xhaka game, at least early on in his career here, given how high-paced and often frantic it was, but he held his ground better than most. The only player to last the full 90 and not surrender possession or make an error. That is all you can ask for. Also created the second-most three chances, behind only Kolasinac. Such a stud.. CM
