Bernd Leno – 7/10

Leno got 45 minutes under his belt, and they were impressive. He got a good save almost immediately after coming on, and much to the delight of Arsenal fans, it was against none other than Troy Deeney. Co-jo-nes.

Alex Iwobi – 7.5/10

More from Arsenal FC

For me, Iwobi was the brightest spark for the Gunners today. He didn’t have much time to work with, but he impressively was involved in two goals. The first, he forced a mistake out of Catchcart, and the second he was involved heavily in the build up. His finest moments are always his celebrations, though.

Danny Welbeck – 6.5/10

Unfortunately he didn’t pick up a 10, so it’s a bad day at the office for him.

Unai Emery – 7/10

Seven to match his number of consecutive wins. My word, he is looking impressive. He didn’t get everything spot on today, but he was on the sidelines inspiring his players throughout the entire 90 minutes, and it paid off.

This is perhaps the most he will learn about his side, as there were plenty of ongoings in today’s match. Let’s hope he can use his lessons to his advantage, and strengthen even more in the next match.

Next. Lucas Torreira's delayed start at Arsenal says plenty about Unai Emery. dark
