Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (ST) – 7/10 – Wasn’t as involved with the entire Arsenal team combining in the right areas on the night, and when the moment came for him he stepped up (at the second attempt).

Alexandre Lacazette (ST) – 8/10 – Some of his one-touch combination play was out of this world. Given he’s barely featured at all this season it was supremely committed. Worked his socks off in a No. 10 slot before his withdrawal.

Hats off to him. It’s never easy feeling like an outcast.
