Elneney MotM ratings v Chelsea as Arsenal do the double


By Gunnersingh

Too little too late, although it's always good to win big games, especially when its Chelsea, the first double over them since the Invincible season, so we will take it. However winning games like this is not sustainable as you need to offer more of an attacking threat. 

Leno- Better performance from him, although he got lucky with Zouma header-7

 
Holding- Played well, defended well.  Looks more comfortable in a 3 man defence- 7
 
Mari- Shakey firat half but much better 2nd half-7
 
Gabriel- Doesn't look comfortable playing wide in a 3 man defence but he grew in to the role and done well-7
 
Saka- Not as the race's and the game passed him by.  Doesn't help he's switched position every week-5
 
Elneny- Covered every blade of grass, just edges Partey for MOTM- 8
 
Partey- Defended well and looked much sharper tonight-8
 
Tierney- Struggled both in attack and defence but that's to be expected.  Spent to much of the game on the ground-6
 
Odegaard- Worked hard but couldn't get involved in attack and should have done better with a chance in the 2nd half-6
 
Auba- Worked much harder than of late and done well to pass rather than shoot for our goal-7
 
Smith Rowe- Our best attacker- carried the ball well at times and was calm on the ball and got a goal which was a bit lucky-8
 
Bellerin- not on long and got injured from a good bit of defending-5
 
Chamber- NA
 
Laca- NA

Absolute garbage. Are we managed by Mourinho?

It was more akin to a Sam allardyce team.

Didn't like the football.
But rather win than play great and lose.

Thought it was horrible to watch. I have no interest in watching games like that.

On any other day we would have played like that and also lost. This wasn't some heroic defensive performance in a second leg of a champions League game. This was dreadful and had Chelsea not been so poor in front of goal we would have been hammered.

But we wasn't hammered.
We won. We beat Chelsea away.
We did play well at times as a defensive team even though Chelsea did miss some chances.

Remember we are a poor team.

We should be happy with the win, of course youโ€™re right but that was pretty bad.

The decision to play Saka at left back was baffling

Saka was MOTM game before starting L/Back.
But we shouldn't be playing him there I agree.

I hate winning like that when we don't deserve it, but I hate it more when we lose and don't deserve it. This season we lost so many games that we perhaps didn't deserve to lose so I'd grudgingly accept this win.

Always good to win over Chelsea and especially Man United.
