Arsenal Substitutes Ratings
Mohamed Elneny – 2/10 – Shied away from Rodri’s shot at goal, had nothing to offer. But then again, did anyone expect differently?
Alexandre Lacazette – 3/10 – An isolated figure after replacing Aubameyang, rarely ever seeing the ball, let alone touching it.
Ainsley Maitland-Niles – N/A – Came on for Odegaard likely just to protect the Norwegian, and Maitland-Niles, by no fault of his own, just slotted into the mess he saw previously.
