[Player Ratings] Arsenal 2-0 WBA: Monreal & Lacazette impress for Gunners
Arsenal eased to a 2-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion at the Emirates tonight thanks to a brace from Alexandre Lacazette.
Here are my ratings:
Cech 7/10 | Great save to tip a Rodriguez shot on to the post at 0-0. Vital stop and didn’t put a foot wrong all game.
Koscielny 7/10 | A solid performance from the skipper. Dealt well with a physical West Brom side.
Mustafi 6.5/10 | Very fortunate not to give away a stone-wall penalty at 0-0 but was otherwise solid.
Monreal 8/10 | Superb goal-line clearance to keep it at 1-0 and was excellent all night. His best performance of the season.
Bellerin 7/10 | Involved lots down the right and wasn’t really troubled defensively.
Xhaka 6.5/10 | Poor in the first half as he gave away possession countless times but improved after the break when he controlled the game.
Elneny 6.5/10 | Another bang average performance from Elneny. He isn’t great at anything and shouldn’t be a regular starter but he’s a useful squad player.
Kolasinac 7/10 | A monster down the left at times. Got in to some great positions going forward and was solid at the back.
Ramsey 7.5/10 | Won the penalty and made some excellent runs but still think he’s better utilised in central midfield rather than in attack.
Sanchez 7/10 | Mixed game from Alexis. Was sloppy at times, gave away possession cheaply and looked rusty but was also involved in some excellent moments.
Lacazette 8/10 | On hand to head home the opener from close range and dispatched his penalty expertly for 2-0. A proper poacher who’ll score plenty this season. Great movement and work ethic too.
Subs:
Giroud 6/10 | Not too much to speak of from his late cameo.
Ozil 6.5/10 | A couple of lovely passes after surprisingly being left out.

A vital win considering all our rivals won over the weekend and it was great to see Lacazette getting among the goals once again. Next up is a trip to Belarus to face BATE on Thursday….
