Arsenal player ratings from WBA win – Alexis MOTM

Well that was pretty easy to pick which of the Arsenal players performed best in our reasonably easy 2-0 win over West Bromwich Albion last night, as not only did Alexis Sanchez score both of the goals but his bustling drive gave a much needed lift to the flat atmosphere inside the ground and offered some inspiration to the Arsenal fans that did come as well as his team mates.

Cech 7 – Solid and commanding after his slip last weekend.

Bellerin 7.5 – Buccaneering game showed just why he made the PFA team of the year.

Mertesacker 7 – Never troubled and gave our defence good leadership and a calm feel.

Koscielny 7.5 – Very good as usual from the Frenchman who even got forward at times.

Monreal 6.5 – Steady but nothing special.

Elneny 6.5 – Lots of work, decent game, poor attempt to win penalty.

Ramsey 7.5 – Very effective game with great energy and a hand in both goals.

Alexis 8.5 – A class apart and two super goals.

Ozil 7 – Looked tired or affected by atmosphere but still some quality stuff.

Iwobi 7 – Slow start but grew into game.

Giroud 6.5 – Put himself about and came close to scoring late on but struggled to get into game early on.

Subs: 6
Coquelin steady, Campbell and Walcott nearly got our third straight away.
