Had one iffy moment on the ball in the first half, but otherwise really solid – made a couple of very important saves.

Solid defensively, 4 clearances, 2 tackles, 1 interception - hopefully nothing serious when he went off

4 tackles, 7 clearances, and in the second half in particularly he was really at his best

To me he looked a little rusty, understandably so as he hasn't played a competitive game since April

Scored the only goal of the game, dealt with his booking well

Solid if unspectacular debut - will have learned a lot. Such as: referees will allow people to elbow you in the face when you're an Arsenal player

His corner led to the only goal of the game, but he really didn't look right to me today. Covered 1.5km less than both Odegaard and Zubimendi

Only William Saliba made more clearances for Arsenal today, which tells you something about how hard he worked, but also a lot about the overall performance today

Tidy but not impactful in the final third until a shot right at the death

Had to work hard defensively but basically anonymous in the second half

Didn't get a lot of service, but nor did he do much with the ball when he did.

Put himself about well when he came on, should have had about 10 free kicks but the referee wasn't in the mood to give us anything

Picked up a booking, poor touch but a bit harsh for me as he played the ball

Not on long enough to rate

Bonus

10/10: Starting the new season with a win at a difficult ground. Analysis of the performance can wait, but I'd have taken a scabby 1-0 beforehand.
