Forwards

Saka (RW) 6/10: He looked to be playing within himself as the World Cup looms. Had his moments but not to his usual standard.

Jesus (ST) 7/10: He came close to breaking his scoring drought in the first half as he hit the bar but was again in the thick of everything with his pressing and energy a feature.

Martinelli (LW) 6/10: He linked up well with Zinchenko several times but couldn’t impact the game as he usually does. A few bright spots, but overall, not up to his usual standards.

Substitutes

Nelson N/A: Came on late as Arsenal looked to round out the win.
Cedric N/A: The right-back got a few minutes late on as Arsenal rotated.
Elneny N/A: Introduced with minutes remaining as Arteta looked to shore up the midfield.
Vieira 7/10: Better outing for the midfielder than against Brighton. Produced a delightful chip to find Odegaard for the game’s opener.
