Bukayo Saka (RW) - 8/10 - A reminder of Saka's inevitability. Another night with multiple productions for the winger, who's benefitting greatly from the current right-hand side dynamics.

Kai Havertz (ST) - 7.5/10 - A dogged performance from Havertz, who got on the scoresheet. Offered an outlet in behind and was genuinely effective when holding the ball up. This felt like an archetypal performance from the German.

Gabriel Martinelli (LW) - 7/10 - Got the ball rolling with a poacher's finish but Martinelli wasn't involved too much thereafter with much of Arsenal's play being focussed down the right.
