Forwards

Bukayo Saka (RW) – 6/10 – Wasn’t quite the majestic showing he had against United last time out. Saka was bright in moments and he created Arsenal’s best chance of the first half. Lisandro Martinez did also try to kill him, I’m sure.

Eddie Nketiah (ST) – 4/10 – Worked hard to fashion an opening before United took the lead, but that was his brightest moment. United’s two centre-backs had few worries dealing with Eddie.

Gabriel Martinelli (LW) – 5.5/10 – Should’ve given Arsenal the lead in the opening exchanges, but his effort from close range was weak. Withdrawn before the hour.
