Forwards
Bukayo Saka (RW) – 8/10 – Started Arsenal’s rout with a smart finish off a rebound and dazzled in the opening period against Sergino Dest. Finally earned some respite by being withdrawn with plenty of time remaining in the second half.
Gabriel Jesus (ST) – 9/10 – Jesus looked at ease on a stage with which he’s familiar. The Brazilian was outstanding on Wednesday night and deservedly got on the scoresheet. His best showing in a long time.
Leandro Trossard (LW) – 8/10 – Scorer and provider: Trossard was cash-money in the final third once again. Did his early withdrawal hint at a start on Sunday?
