Arsenal were unlucky to take only a point away from Stamford Bridge in the end, as the Gunners put in a very solid big away performance for once.

We’re going to take you through how we think each player did in the early Sunday kick-off, below:

Sead Kolašinac – 7

Sead had another good game generally, but wasn’t quite as effective as against Bournemouth and FC Köln. His most important contribution was getting fouled to get David Luiz sent off. Nonetheless he was dangerous at times, in particular with one first half shot, and he won all of his aerial duels.

Hector Bellerín – 7

Hector created a couple of great chances in the first half and was one of Arsenal’s main threats. He won all of his tackles and although he dropped off in the second half a bit it was still a good game from the Spaniard.

Granit Xhaka – 7

Xhaka made a couple of important interceptions and put a great ball in for Mustafi’s offside goal. His passing wasn’t quite at it’s usual high level, but defensively he did what was required and that was the most important thing today.

Aaron Ramsey – 8

One mazy first half run almost brought a goal and the combination of Ramsey and Lacazette were unlucky to be denied by the post and an unpredictable rebound out. Given man of the match by commentators, he worked hard and contributed at both ends.
