Mesut Ozil – 7/10
Another game, another assist. The playmaker’s perfect delivery for Olivier Giroud helped open the scoring, and he was bitterly unlucky not to add a third late on when striking the post.
Alexis Sanchez – 6/10
Caused problems for the Everton backline throughout, but wasn’t perhaps one of his better games as he was unable to have a decisive impact.
Olivier Giroud – 7/10
The Frenchman is in great goalscoring form whether he’s on the bench or not. Great finish to break the deadlock and could have had more.
Substitutes
Mathieu Flamini – 5/10
Missed a chance to make the game safe, but otherwise did a decent job in final 10 minutes or so.
Kieran Gibbs – 5/10
Came on with just a few minutes remaining, not enough time to have a say on the result.
