Jens Lehmann (7) Claimed some low drilled crosses with ease!
Mathieu Flamini (7) He has really grown into this role, and looked very comfortable all night.
Kolo Toure (8) Two stunning last ditch tackles ensured that we kept a valuable clean sheet.
Philippe Senderos (7) Saw off any remaining danger.
Emanuel Eboue (7) His pace caused them all sorts of trouble down our right.
Robert Pires (7) His best game for us in a long while – he was making challenges for crying out loud!
Cesc Fabregas (9) The Gooner billed this game as master v apprentice. Fair to say that the apprentice came out on top by a country mile. What a simply stunning player.
Gilberto (7) His best game in a long time.
Alexandre Hleb (7) Still a slight doubt on his passing, but you can't fault his commitment.
Jose Reyes (7) Bought us a few free kicks and burst forward well.
Thierry Henry (7) He looked up for this one, and got the goal he deserved after more fine play from Cesc.
Subs:
Robin Van Persie (6) Got clattered which led to a red card, otherwise quiet.
