Having not scored for the last two matches no Arsenal fan can claim they were expecting seven goals last night. The highest number scored away at the knockout phase ever in the CL. What a feast it was, and one right back did manage a goal as well. The skipper got two in a stylish manner amnd not to forget the new CF Merino who not only scored but skillfully passed the ball around in the last third. Without further ado the ratings follow:
Raya 6 - Excellent handling, a couple of dodgy moments
Timber 8 - Great leap for the opening goal
Saliba 8 - Defended superbly
Gabriel 8 - Beast mode activated 💪💪💪💪💪
MLS 5 - Played well but very lucky to stay on. Great assist
Partey 6 - Gave away the pen, I don't really notice him but I had been drinking
Odegaard 9 MOTM - 2 goals, an assist and elevated his game in the second half
Rice 8 - Ran and ran and ran. Hit the box a lot
Nwaneri 9 - so f.ucking good
Merino 7 - Nice goal, some good flicks
Trossard 8 - I thought he was great.
Subs
Calafiori 8 - Goal, assist and great hair, could probably play up front
Tierney 7 - Like a young, pale Neymar.....Stella had kicked in by then
Zinchenko 7 - Lively
White 7 - Trademark short roll up, wonderful thighs. Sun is out and Ben is back. He's like a solar panel
(and hopefully some great shithousery to look forward to. Ed).
