AML) Danny Welbeck – 6
Petered out after a bright start, but should’ve had a goal in the first half, and didn’t see a pass when he burst clear of the Newcastle defence.
AMR) Alexis Sanchez – 6
Badly needs a rest, and with a busy international schedule it is difficult to see where the rest will come from.
CF) Olivier Giroud – 9
Arsenal’s man of the moment was efficient with his chances to haunt Newcastle once again.
Substitutes:
Tomas Rosicky – 6
Brought relative calm in the dying embers at a time when Arsenal needed it.
Flamini – 6
Fought alongside Coquelin and was effective in his defensive duties.
