Arsenal Vs Spurs: Player ratings – Sell Mustafi, Kolasinac now

CB. Arsenal. SHKODRAN MUSTAFI. 3.0. In a back three, the wide centre-backs have the most space to progress play and distribute from deep. Mustafi was atrocious in this area. His passing was inaccurate, he took too many touches on the ball before releasing it, and he largely made the wrong decision. Late in the game, was tested by Spurs with balls in behind. Invariably failed to deal with them, especially when faced by Harry Kane. Quite simply, not good enough.

5.0. Covered for Kolasinac and Mustafi well when needed and was the most comfortable of the trio in possession. Is still loose in his marking. Harry Kane made several runs that were simply not covered by Luiz, whose complacency often gets the better of him. That said, he did not have much chance playing alongside his chumps.. CB. Arsenal. DAVID LUIZ

Arsenal. SEAD KOLASINAC. 2.0. Kolasinac really is a terrible footballer. Perhaps the most damning aspect of his assist for Son Heung-min was not the pass itself, however disastrous that was, but rather the decision. Xhaka was free for an easy inside pass to evade the Spurs press. Kolasinac panicked, dribbled backwards, and then rushed his pass. It was an epitome of his performance. Loose defending, terrible decision-making, and utter panic throughout. Dreadful.. CB
