The Armenian was a spectator in what was a fine attacking display from Arsenal. He was substituted off in the second half with a knock, which Arsenal fans will hope isn’t too serious. In these Arsenal player ratings vs CSKA Moscow, Mkhitaryan takes the joint worst, it wasn’t his night.
Alexandre Lacazette – 8/10
With the cup tie rule working against Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, there was a lot of pressure on Lacazette to deliver, and deliver he did. That’s three goals in his last two games now, and the confidence is surely sky-high.
Mesut Ozil – 9/10
I am running out of words to describe Mesut Ozil. Tonight was the Mesut Ozil show, and everybody in the stadium knew it. Arsenal could have easily doubled their lead with the chances the German was creating. He is simply unmatched.
