Here are the half-time player ratings from the match...
5. Dan Burn - 7
Had his work cut out by Bukayo Saka early on but improved after a difficult start.
6. Bruno Guimaraes - 7
Struggled to stamp his authority on a scrappy game but played an important role in retaining possession at key moments. Booked.
7. Sean Longstaff - 5
Worked hard but Almost let Arsenal in after slipping and was unconvincing in possession.
8. Joe Willock - 7
Tracked back well to help Dan Burn but should have done better after the ball fell to him on the edge of the box in the first half. Kept Arsenal alert with his runs down the left with a tireless display.
