Arsenal v Dinamo Zagreb: Player Ratings

by Daniel Borgertpoepping

Arsenal collapsed 2-1 against Dinamo Zagreb and once again seem under threat early of not advancing from the Champions League group stage. Here are your player ratings:

DAVID OSPINA

GK, Arsenal FC

6.5

No real chance on either goal. Gave a little too much space at the near post on the second but with neither defender actually doing anything, any player can nod that home.

MATHIEU DEBUCHY

RB, Arsenal FC

6.3

Not great, but fine. More physical than Bellerin but not as good going forward. Won’t stay in the team. Tucked too far inside to open for the first goal.

LAURENT KOSCIELNY

CB, Arsenal FC

7.0

Did what he could. No real glaring mistakes.

GABRIEL

CB, Arsenal FC

7.2

Made a couple sensational last ditch tackles. Couldn’t be looking at the end of Mertscielny, could we?

KIERAN GIBBS

LB, Arsenal FC

6.0

Poor defending on the second goal, looked up for it going forward as the night went on.

MIKEL ARTETA

MID, Arsenal FC

5.8

Nice to see him in the team, but there’s a reason he was sacrificed early. Offered no defense for the second goal, and his assuredness on the ball just doesn’t mean much when we’re used to the destructive influence of Coquelin.

SANTI CAZORLA

MID, Arsenal FC

6.0

Not good at all.

ALEX OXLADE-CHAMBERLAIN

MID, Arsenal FC

6.2

Had a couple mazing runs, but didn’t see the opening for the first goal quickly enough. Unlucky to score, though.

MESUT OZIL

MID, Arsenal FC

6.4

Struggled all night, not a real threat.

ALEXIS SANCHEZ

MID, Arsenal FC

6.6

Really struggling in the final third, but had some good burst to set up quarter chances for teammates.

OLIVIER GIROUD

ST, Arsenal FC

4.5

Ref had it out for him, but he was awful anyway.

FRANCIS COQUELIN

MID, Arsenal FC

6.5

Ran around for a bit.

THEO WALCOTT

MID, Arsenal FC

7.3

MAN OF THE MATCH- He scored and secured a long run in the center forward position, though that’s due mainly to how awful Olivier Giroud was..

JOEL CAMPBELL

ST, Arsenal FC

4.0

Gave the ball away and fouled needlessly, so par for the course.
