Played deeper than he usually would and struggled to get into the game. Was taken off with just over 25 minutes to go for Gabriel Martinelli.
Thomas Partey 4
Really struggled in midfield again and seemed at a loss without Granit Xhaka next to him. Passing radar was off too.
Emile Smith-Rowe 7
Like Odegaard, he was asked to play a deeper role. The youngster had some nice touches and moments and was Arsenal’s best player. Never stopped running.
Bukayo Saka 5
A rare off-night for the teenager, who has been brilliant this season. Never really got into the game and created little.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang 5
Hit the twice post and went close with another effort, but it just wasn’t his night. Still doesn’t look fully fit after his battle with malaria.
Nicolas Pepe 5
A few flashes of brilliance, but not at the level he has been in the Europa League this season. Swapped wings at times, however he couldn’t get into the game.
