Arsenal made hard work of their game against relegation fodder, Stoke, on Easter Sunday.
The match was dire for the first hour until Alexandre Lacazette’s introduction sparked Arsenal into life.
But on a day of poor performances across the team, did anyone stand out?

Alexandre Lacazette 7
Brought on after 60 minutes and looked energised and busting to get involved.
His introduction certainly lifted the tempo of the entire side and Arsenal were ahead 15 minutes later as the game opened up.
Held the ball up well and played in Mkhitaryan for the Armenian to test Stoke’s keeper.
Not content with that, he won a penalty by luring in a Stoke idiot who just shoved him in the back. Looked nervous as he stepped up to slot it home to make it 3-0 and goodnight Stoke.
In general, he made a great impact on the whole Arsenal side and it was an excellent return for the Frenchman who looked so relieved to net from the spot.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan 6
Was another who was full of energy and produced a fine save from Butland. His enthusiasm, however, affected his passing which was more than a little wayward.
Granit Xhaka 5
Was only on for a few minutes when he managed to stamp on a Stoke player. It seemed clumsy more than malicious but, either way, he was lucky the referee missed it completely. Allowed Joe Allen to wind him up, although to be fair he was defending Lacazette whom Allen had just tried to cripple.
