Fabio Vieira (RW) - 5/10 - Vieira is yet to convince in pre-season despite starting the summer with a goal against Bournemouth. There were a couple of neat dribbling sequences in the opening 45 minutes but not much else.

Gabriel Jesus (ST) - 8/10 - Jesus looks razor sharp. Led the press superbly in the first half and finished his outing with a well-deserved goal having cut inside on the break and benefitting from a weak Kovar palm

Leandro Trossard (LW) - 7/10 - A big shift from Trossard, who played 81 minutes on Wednesday. Shifty down the left, the Belgian was cool and composed to convert Arsenal's second of the night.
