MC) Santi Cazorla – 5
Not the Spaniards best game compared to the high standards that he sets, gave the ball away numerous times and struggled throughout the entire 120 minutes.
MC) Francis Coquelin – 6 (Walcott, 101)
Usual performance from the Frenchman, broke up Reading attacks and kept it simple but he wasn’t helped by the amount of time his usually reliable teammates squandered possession.
AMC) Mesut Ozil – 7
Pulled the strings for the Gunners in the first half, where he went close with a free-kick, then created the opener for Alexis with a fine pass. Dropped off significantly after the interval as his side lost control of the game.
