With all three points and a clean sheet, Arsenal have won their first three away games in a top-flight season without conceding for the first time ever. Ratings versus Bournemouth follow:

GK: David Raya - 7. Not a lot to do but his kicking was excellent. Needs to kick like this in big games, Spurs he was poor.

RB: Ben White - 7. Solid and grabbed a goal.

CB: William Saliba - 8. Made what he had to do look simple. One great tackle in pen box.

CB: Gabriel Magalhaes - 7. Same as Saliba.

LB: Oleksandr Zinchenko - 7. Didn't really have to worry about defensive side today.

DM: Declan Rice - 8. Solid as a rock again.

CM: Martin Odegaard - 8. Enjoys these games with no pressure on him. MOTM

CM: Kai Havertz - 6. Let the kid score a penalty. Need a lot more from him.

RW: Bukayo Saka - 8. Better today. Scored a tap in but you have to be there. Should have been subbed before his injury.

ST: Eddie Nketiah - 6. Won Penalty. Never looked like scoring with his chances. He's a weak link for us.

LW: Gabriel Jesus - 6. Not at his best today.

Arteta 1. Got the subs totally wrong again. Hopefully, Saka will be ok.
