William Saliba was once again solid at the back for Arsenal against Brighton. He won two tackles and completed an overall 11 defensive actions during his time on the pitch.

The Frenchman was dominant in defence, winning six out of seven duels, and was a big part in securing a point for his side. He completed 47 out of 50 attempted passes, giving him a pass accuracy of 94%.

Saliba will be disappointed not to have won the game and kept a third consecutive clean sheet. He was one of his side's best performers and deserves plenty of credit for his defensive work.
