This was a truely horrible match. If Arsenal play like this against Villarreal the tie will be over by the first leg. Arteta has to start Martinelli in Spain
Leno- Another error from him. It's becoming a habit-2
Chambers- Is not a right back, lacks agility to play there-6
Holding- Didn't have much to do but a few sloppy passes-6
Mari- His lack of pace shows when an attacker is running at him-6
Xhaka-s Lack of pace and agility proved costly-5
Partey- Another poor game from him. His passing was shocking-4
Ceballos- Back to his spinning worse. Offered nothing-5
Saka- was off the pace and Digne had him in his pocket-6
Smith Rowe- Took too many safe passes when we needed him to run with the ball-6
Pepe- Didn't produce much but 1 good cross-6
Nketiah- Was lively and holded the ball up well in the first half. Wasn't much of a goal threat but the best of a poor bunch-7
Odegard- Couldn't get involved-5
Martinelli- 1 half chance but didn't get much service. Should have started-5
Good ratings mate.
Ryan to play against Villarreal?
Since the end of WW1, 1919, when the FA restarted its 4 tier football league, with Arsenal fc in the 1st div, thereโs only ever been one club to have never been relegated from Div 1/ EPL.

I'd play Ryan. Leno's confidance has gone and he's dropping too many clangers.
[/u]BTW, this is the most home defeats we've had in 91 years.[u]
Yes I heard that.
I hope history repeats because after the 1930 loss Afc became the top club in England, during the 1930s.
