Centre-Backs

7.2. He was pretty good, but I think he does better in a back two, when he doesn’t have as much ground to cover. He’s not a mobile defender and it showed. Thankfully, it didn’t bite him that badly, but he just isn’t a great defender in a lot of space.. RCB. Arsenal. SOKRATIS

7.8. A wonderful goal, but even aside from that, his defending is so clutch. It’s a wonder how we ever got by without him. He saved the club with a fearless diving challenge to shoo away a rebound shot after a fantastic save by Leno and was on top of his play throughout the match.. CB. Arsenal. LAURENT KOSCIELNY

7.3. No real complaints here. It’s a usual performance from Monreal when he does everything you’d expect him to do, and that was the case here. He did everything you’d expect him to do and that was that.. LCB. Arsenal. NACHO MONREAL
