Arsenal’s defensive general radiated calm through the back line.

Had one or two moments against Wolves’ pacey attack but held his ground well.

Was replaced by Fabio Vieira.

Man of the match as he pulled strings all over the place.

GABRIEL MARTINELLI – 7

Brimming with confident after getting the nod for Tite’s Samba boys.

Might not be scoring but he’s doing everything else and more required of a modern-day striker.

One of the best buys in Premier League history if he carries on like this after the World Cup.
