3. William Saliba

This is the sort of performance that we have come accustomed to and Arsenal are a far superior team with Saliba in the heart of defence. Partnered today by Riccardo Calafiori, Saliba looked calm and composed.

Saliba dealt with the threat of Leao very well and never gave the Rossoneri centre-forward time or space to create anything of note.

The pick of Saliba's work today was when he used his pace to cover before stealing the ball away from Loftus-Cheek's toes, denying him a clear chance.
