The shot for their goal was inch perfect, otherwise did fine – one scary moment but he was clearly being fouled

Did his defensive work pretty well, but plays the role so differently from Timber/White in that he doesn't overlap. Had a couple of shots too

I think he let Cameron Archer get the shot away a bit too easily, otherwise solid

A game in which he made 0 clearances, mostly because he wasn't asked to

Swashbuckling stuff again from the Italian, he's just so much fun to watch – completed 3 dribbles

Made a couple of excellent first time passes in the opening 45, but the game needed something different in the second half

That's the 7th successive home game he's scored in, and what a hit it was too. The way he was fighting for the ball even in injury time sums him up so well

Had some moments, but it didn't really come off for him in the final third

Like Sterling, had some flashes, but he'll be disappointed his barren streak in front of goal continued

The difference between him and Sterling was stark, for me at least. The speed with which did things was night and day, got a great second goal with some smart movement and a tidy finish

Made a real impact when he came on – although unusually some of his decision making/final pass wasn't quite at the level you'd expect. Involved in our third

0/10: Sorry Cameron, there's only one Archer whose goal contributions matter at the Emirates ;)
