Arsenal 1-2 Southampton: Player Ratings For League Cup Defeat, With Young Defenders Impressive, But David Ospina Disappointing

CM) Abou Diaby – 7

A positive return from injury from Diaby, who thankfully got through 67 minutes unscathed.

CM) Jack Wilshere – 7

Led the midfield well, getting hold of the ball and driving forward, but lacked the support around him. Booked late on after a frustrated tackle.

AM) Tomas Rosicky – 5

Gave away the penalty for Southampton’s first goal, and was generally uninspiring throughout the night.
