MANCHESTER UNITED
Foster: 6.5 -Hit and miss. Could possibly have done better with the goal and flappedat several crosses. However, made amends by saving brilliantly from VanPersie with his feet to keep United in the game.
O'Shea: 5.5 - Struggled against Arshavin defensively and rarely ventured forwards to support Valencia.
Brown: 6.5 – Beaten by Van Persie at the start of the second half but pulled off a great challenge later on to deny the Dutchman.
Vidic: 6.5 – Perhaps ought to have closed Arshavin down earlier for the goal but otherwise did little wrong.
Evra: 7.5 – Anotherstrong showing by the full-back. Important block on Van Persie in thefirst half and his pace caused problems offensively. Decent shot in thesecond half that forced Almunia into a good save.
Valencia: 5 – Disappointingdisplay from the new signing. Couldn't make any impact against Clichy,didn't make the most of his chances and was far too hesitant.
Fletcher: 8 - Wasjust about everywhere, fortunate to escape a penalty after flooringArshavin in the box, fired an early chance over and didn't stopchasing.
Carrick: 6.5 – Neat and tidy in possession and had a decent shot from a corner that was blocked.
Nani: 7 – Enjoyeda good tussle with Sagna. Great ball to Berbatov late on which shouldhave finished it and showed discipline to get back and defend whenneeded.
Giggs: 7.5 – After a poor start, a great pass sent Rooney away for the penalty before crossing for Diaby to head past his own 'keeper.
Rooney: 8 –A fairly quiet first half, although he hit a super pass to set upFletcher and sent a free-kick just wide. Kept going and got his rewardby winning and scoring the penalty.
Substitutes
Park: 6.5 - An improvement on Valencia.
Berbatov: 5 - Should have finished it as a contest but wasted a stoppage time chance.
ARSENAL
Almunia: 4 – Poor goalkeeping to rush off his line and bring down Rooney for the penalty. Might just have cost his side victory.
Sagna: 6.5 – Played well against Nani, in particular a great tackle to get back and deny him in the first half.
Gallas: 7 - Continuesto look back to his very best and yet another commanding display.However, crucially strayed offside late on, which denied Van Persie adramatic late equalizer.
Vermaelen: 7 - His biggesttest so far and one he passed. Eased Rooney out of Evra cross early onand did well against the England international.
Clichy: 7.5 – Snuffed out the threat of Valencia and had a good game.
Denilson: 7 –A couple of mistakes in possession almost proved costly but otherwisehe helped dictate the tempo of the game for long periods as Arsenaldominated.
Song: 7 - Put himself about and a few wild challenges saw him pick up a booking but, alongside Denilson, generally bossed the midfield.
Diaby: 5 -A good performance was spoiled by an awful own goal. Good play straightafterwards almost brought salvation but his shot didn't match the run.
Eboue: 6.5 - Rewardedwith a start after some excellent displays. Made strong forward runsbut poor touches at important times let him down. Booked for diving.
Arshavin: 8.5 -Scored a fine opener, could have had an earlier goal but wasfractionally wide from hitting the top corner. Set up Van Persie for agreat chance but then hobbled off, which must be a worry for theGunners.
Van Persie: 7.5 – Unlucky not to find himselfon the scoresheet. Forced Evra to block a shot in the first half, wasdenied brilliantly by Foster after the break and then had a stoppagetime goal flagged for offside.
Substitutes
Bendtner: 6.5 - Good cross just too high for Eduardo late on.
Eduardo: 6 – Couldn't find an equalizer. |
