AML) Alexis Sanchez – 8
Even when the Chilean is not scoring, his unbelievable workrate is frightening at times and Burnley’s back four weren’t afforded time on the ball.
AMR) Aaron Ramsey – 8
Scored the eventual winner and continues to do a job for the team on the right of midfield.
CF) Olivier Giroud – 6
Arsenal’s in-form man was kept quiet and it wasn’t his type of game. Burnley defended deep and Giroud was often surrounded.
Substitutes.
Danny Welbeck – 6
Came on in the last 10 minutes for Giroud and seemed to be more effective than the Frenchman during his time on the pitch. Had the England man started, Burnley may have not been able to handle his pace.
Calum Chamber – N/A
Was brought on for Alexis to run down the clock.
