Arsenal earned a hard-fought 1-0 win against Wolves this afternoon. Here is our playersâ rating.
David Raya â 8.0
The second half was one of his busiest as an Arsenal player, but he rose to the occasion with some crucial saves.
Jurrien Timber â 7.0
Timber was solid, keeping the tricky Wolves attackers on his side of the pitch under control and neutralising their threat.
William Saliba â 7.0
Saliba stepped up brilliantly after Arsenal went down to ten men, showing composure and ensuring no Wolves striker got the better of him.
Gabriel MagalhĂŁes â 7.0
Enjoying his partnership with Saliba, Gabriel was as dependable as ever and put in another strong performance.
Myles Lewis-Skelly â 5.0
His red card almost cost Arsenal. While the decision may have been harsh, he needs to refine his decision-making when committing tactical fouls.
Thomas Partey â 6.0
Arsenal controlled possession before the red card, but Parteyâs performance lacked anything particularly noteworthy, even when Wolves went down to ten men.
Declan Rice â 7.5
A typically reliable showing from Rice. He was eager to push forward and added stability in midfield.
Ethan Nwaneri â 5.5
The youngster started again but was less effective compared to previous outings, struggling to impose himself on the game.
Gabriel Martinelli â 6.5
Made some impressive surging runs, but his final balls lacked the quality to truly trouble Wolves.
Leandro Trossard â 6.0
Trossard had a quiet game by his standards, failing to make a significant impact in attack.
Kai Havertz â 4.5
Another underwhelming performance. Arsenal desperately need a more clinical finisher to replace him in the starting lineup.
Substitutes
Riccardo Calafiori â 7.5
Made the difference with his decisive winner and also performed his defensive duties well.
Kieran Tierney â N/A
Came on too late to have any real impact.
