Emiliano Martinez  7.5 – Another superb display between the sticks from the Argentine as he continues to excel in the absence of Bernd Leno. 

Shkodran Mustafi  7.5 – The German continues to improve and impress at the back as Arsenal battled against the Leicester tide to hold on for the win. 

David Luiz  6.5 – A solid enough display from the Brazilian. 

Sead Kolasinac  6 – Another unconvincing display in the back three. 

Hector Bellerin  6.5 – A danger going forward and but could have done more defensively. 

Kieran Tierney  6.5  Not the Scot’s finest display in an Arsenal shirt but he caused plenty of problems going forward. 

Granit Xhaka  6.5 – A solid and composed performance in the first half but he faded after the break. 

Dani Ceballos  8.5 – Pulled the strings and dictated the tempo in an excellent midfield display as his good form continues. 

Bukayo Saka  7.5 - The youngster keeps getting better and better, setting up Aubameyang’s goal with a delightful pass. 

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang  7.5 – A determined, hard-working performance that was capped with a goal to keep him in golden boot contention 

Alexandre Lacazette  6.5 – Held the ball up well and linked nicely with Saka and Aubameyang but was missing the cutting edge in front of goal. 

Substitutes 

Eddie Nketiah – 0 – Sent off just minutes after coming on and although it was an honest challenge, he left his team in the lurch with 15 minutes to go. 

Joe Willock – 5 – Failed to impact the game. 

Lucas Torreira – 5 – Failed to make his mark on the game. 

Ainsley Maitland-Niles – N/A

    Ive always thought these player ratings are pointless too. What of the players whos anonymous for 89 mins leaving his team to play effectively with 10 men and then scores a wonder goal to win a match 1-0? Does he get a 10 or a 1? It was a good match. Damn good Leics side who would be awesome if their midfield ever chimed in with a few goals to help Vardy. We played very well first half and Schmiecal kept them in it at times. Very resilient team are Leics. A good point.

    Agree with Wengerballs, subjective rubbish. Dan you're in danger of becoming a second Graham Perry. And I wouldnt wish that on anyone.

    More pointless subjective player ratings. Martinez was more like a 9. Mustafi was poor for their goal, hes too slow. How can you give Torreira a 5 saying he didnt make his mark on the match when he was hardly on the pitch. And not enough .5s in your ratings either lol.
