Midfielders

Sambi Lokonga (DM) – 6/10 – The visitors certainly had some joy breaking through the midfield in the second half, but Lokonga generally proved a stabilising force in the middle of the park. He lacks Thomas Partey’s aura, as well as his assertiveness in all phases, but the Belgian did produce some wonderful switches of play.

Granit Xhaka (CM) – 5.5/10 – Caused a few problems higher up the field as he got in behind a couple of times. Sloppy in deeper zones, however.

Fabio Vieira (CM) – 7/10 – Had two big moments in the game which helped Arsenal to victory. After missing a pair of big chances in the first half, Vieira grabbed his goal late on following some excellent work from Jesus. His assist for Holding was divine.
