Reiss Nelson 6.5/10

Nelson was good today. He had a lot of promising bursts, although none of them materialized into anything for the Gunners. He certainly didn’t do anything to ruin his reputation among the Arsenal faithful.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – 5.5/10

I’m not quite sure what was wrong with Aubameyang today. He had a few chances but they lacked real conviction, and his passing was sloppy. His off day needed to come sooner or later, I suppose.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan – 7.5/10

Henrikh Mkhitaryan was in the mood for it today. On his return from injury, he scored the only goal against his former club. It’s just a shame it didn’t build to anything. He also looked to bring his teammates forward regularly.
