Arsenal Player Ratings vs Bayern Munich: Arsenal Defenders Found Guilty

Arsenal lost 5-1 to Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena as Arsenal’s defence had a terrible night. Let us take a look at how the Arsenal players performed

Petr Cech 7

Even though Arsenal conceded 5 goals, he kept the score respectable with some good saves. The defence didn’t help him either. Unlucky at the goal.

Mathieu Debucy 3.5

Worst. He got beaten by Coman time and time again. He failed to clear the chance as it led to the second goal. He was bewitched by Alaba for the fourth. At least he saved another certain goal with a tackle on Robben.

Gabriel 4

Playing everyone onside by standing too deep and then deciding to play the offside trap. Got embarrassed by Robert Lewandowski.

Per Mertesacker 4.5

Deflected a goal into his own net. His pace was badly exposed by Bayern Munich. Surely a night to remember for the German.

Nacho Monreal 5.5

He was he only defender who looked good. But he wasn’ supported well by his fellow defenders.

Santi Cazorla 5.5

He was good with the ball. He was exposed as a holding midfielder when David Alaba brushed him aside to score the third.

Francis Coquelin 5

Coquelin showed good promise in the beginning. But was faded away as the match went on.

Joel Campbell 5.5

Was harshly booked and was taken out in the 58th minute as he had a shocking game, looked way out of his depth

Mesut Ozil 5

Shouldered a ball into the goal, that could have been headed and eventually it was ruled out. Went missing for most of the match.

Alexis Sanchez:

A night to forget for the Chilean as he looked completely out of touch. Had an assist in the game.

Olivier Giroud:

Was the best Arsenal player in the pitch. The Frenchman toiled hard as he failed to give up in the match. Scored the lone Arsenal goal and saved them from embarrassment.

Kieran Gibbs: 3
