Didn't have much to do really, beaten for the penalty but that's not his fault

Did fine, and defended quite well, but moments when his passing range could have been useful he was wayward

Solid and dependable as always, conceded the penalty about which I have some thoughts (see tomorrow's blog)

Not overly tested defensively, strong and committed as ever

Thought he was good and solid tonight - harsh booking

Poor this evening, caught in possession too often which is the thing a player of his experience should be able to cope with

Played a nice part in the goal, but missed a good second half chance which would have made it 2-0 just before the penalty was awarded

Ran his legs off tonight, but looked leggy early in the second half

Scored a lovely goal, a bit careless on the ball at times when he lost it trying to beat a man, but he'll learn. I thought his booking was garbage.

I was hoping he'd respond to the BOOOs buy hurting his former team, using that as motivation, but couldn't manage it

Worked hard, put himself about well, but didn't really threaten or didn't get service to threaten

On at half-time, didn't offer any real attacking threat

Unwell before the game and didn't train, and that was obvious in his performance when he came on – just never got to the pace of the game.

0/10 - The way things happen to Arsenal that you never see happen to any other team. Ever. Never ever. Never ever ever. Even if tonight's might divide opinion
