Arsenal vs Everton player ratings: Seven goals in two games?!

BUKAYO SAKA. 6.6. Came on for an injured Kolasinac in just the 13th minute. Greeted to rapturous applause. Naturally, he got involved straight away, setting up a great chance for Nicolas Pepe before coming back and delivering a pristine cross for Eddie Nketiah’s beautiful finish. Perhaps it was an inevitability of timing, but this club looked completely different after he got introduced.

5.9. Did well in allowing Xhaka to get forward, but really struggles settling into a match of this nature, where there’s bodies flying in every direction. The pressure got the best of him a couple times.. SUB. Arsenal. LUCAS TORREIRA

6.2. His high pressure late in the match was a welcome boon at the other end, while we were hunkered down defending the lead. Did well in that sense, keeping a level of energy that seeped away late on.. SUB. Arsenal. MATTEO GUENDOUZI
