Arsenal stretched their unbeaten run to nine games with an impressive victory at Leicester City.
Simon Collings was at the King Power Stadium to see the action...
Aaron Ramsdale 9 | Star man
Arsenal’s best player. Made a number of brilliant saves, namely his effort to keep out James Maddison’s free-kick just before half-time. Distribution was excellent too.
Takehiro Tomiyasu 8
Made a number of vital blocks and interceptions during a good performance. Has settled really well at Arsenal and looks the part.
Ben White 7
Marginally worse than his centre-back partner, but not by much. Looked so calm on the ball throughout and carried it well too.
Gabriel 8
Got on the scoresheet from a corner and was a rock in defence too. Forming a good partnership with White and is getting better on the ball too.
Nuno Tavares 8
Excellent again from the youngster, who is filling in for the injured Kieran Tierney with aplomb. Looks so dangerous when he bombs forward.
Albert Sambi Lokonga 7
Another good performance from the midfielder, who has bounced back from his tough game at Brighton at the start of this month.
Thomas Partey 8
Looks so much better playing in a midfield-two than on his own. Broke up play well and his passing was decent too.
Bukayo Saka 7
Setup the first goal and looked very lively early on. Faded a bit in the second-half and wasted some good openings.
Alexandre Lacazette 6
Did a solid job playing just off Aubameyang. Pressed well and had a hand in the second goal. Taken off just before the hour mark.
Emile Smith Rowe 8
Another great performance from the youngster, who is surely close to Gareth Southgate’s England squad. Scored again to make it four goals in seven games.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang 7
Looks better and more like himself with each game he plays. Led the line well and was denied a certain goal by a stunning Kasper Schmeichel save.
Substitutions
Martin Odegaard (Lacazette 58’) 6
Came on and showed the odd flash of brilliance. Faces a fight to get back into the team.
