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

RW) Alexis Sanchez – 8

Was the dominant player in the game during the early stages, and scored with a stunning free-kick early on.

LW) Joel Campbell – 5

Finally had his chance to shine from the start, but disappointed and struggled to get involved before being replaced.

ST) Lukas Podolski – 5

Another disappointing performance from the Arsenal forward, who will be lucky to survive at the club beyond January.
