**Arsenal **
|
|
|
|
**Wojciech Szczesny 7/10
|
|
|
|
**A spectator throughout the first-half, but then alert to deny Rooney and
|
|
Nani with vital second-half saves.
|
|
|
|
**Bacary Sagna 7**
|
|
|
|
The PFA's right-back of the year got forward regularly and, despite his
|
|
erratic delivery, was a persistent threat.
|
|
|
|
**Laurent Koscielny 7 **
|
|
|
|
Dealt well with the movement of both Rooney and Hernandez and lifted crowd
|
|
with first-half challenge on Fabio.
|
|
|
|
**Johan Djourou 7**
|
|
|
|
Arsenal's best defender this season, but was forced off in the 68th minute
|
|
after landing awkwardly from an attempted clearance.

|
|
|
|
29 Apr 2011
|
|
|
|
**Gael Clichy 7**
|
|
|
|
Outstanding in limiting the impact of Nani but fortunate not to concede a
|
|
penalty with late challenge on Owen.
|
|
|
|
**Alex Song 8 **
|
|
|
|
Screened the defence with discipline and intelligence to negate United and
|
|
ensure that Arsenal dominated possession.
|
|
|
|
**Aaron Ramsey 7**
|
|
|
|
His first Arsenal goal since January 2010 and was excellent alongside Song at
|
|
the heart of Arsenal's midfield.
|
|
|
|
**Theo Walcott 6 **
|
|
|
|
Seemed to play in a slightly more central position in support of Van Persie
|
|
and his pace helped keep Manchester United on the back foot.
|
|
|
|
**Jack Wilshere 7 **
|
|
|
|
Granted more licence to get forward in the absence of Cesc Fabregas although
|
|
his finishing remains his one relative weakness.
|
|
|
|
**Samir Nasri 7 **
|
|
|
|
His pace and understanding with Clichy was constantly threatening but forced
|
|
off at half-time with a hamstring injury
|
|
|
|
**Robin van Persie 7**
|
|
|
|
Denied a first-half chance by the arm of Vidic and showed real poise to
|
|
provide the assist for Ramsey's winner.
|
|
|
|
**Subs:** Andrei Arshavin replaced Nasri at half-time and was a calming
|
|
presence in possession. Sebastien Squillaci was forced on for Djourou while
|
|
Emmanuel Eboue substituted Walcott as Arsenal held their nerve.
|
|
|
|
**---------------------------------------------------- **
|
|
|
|
**Manchester United **
|
|
|
|
**Edwin van der Sar 6**
|
|
|
|
Had few saves to make despite Arsenal's initial control of possession and
|
|
could do little about Ramsey's decisive finish.
|
|
|
|
**Fabio 7**
|
|
|
|
More impressive attacking rather than defending and broke forward to create
|
|
Manchester United's best first first-half chance.
|
|
|
|
**Rio Ferdinand 7 **
|
|
|
|
A calming presence in the Manchester United defence and was helpless to
|
|
prevent Ramsey's late run from midfield.
|
|
|
|
**Nemanja Vidic 6 **
|
|
|
|
Fortunate to have one horribly misplaced clearance unpunished and then got
|
|
even luckier when his handball went unnoticed.
|
|
|
|
**Patrice Evra 6 **
|
|
|
|
Made one vital first-half interception but his attacking threat was generally
|
|
negated by the pace of Walcott and Sagna.
|
|
|
|
**Nani 5**
|
|
|
|
Preferred to Antonio Valencia on the right but was a peripheral influence as
|
|
Clichy pressed forward down his flank.
|
|
|
|
**Michael Carrick 5 **
|
|
|
|
Excellent last Tuesday against Schalke but his limitations in a game of
|
|
frenetic pace were evident here.
|
|
|
|
**Anderson 5 **
|
|
|
|
Selected in central midfield in order to give Ryan Giggs a rest but did little
|
|
to advance his case for a Champions League place.
|
|
|
|
**Ji-Sung Park 6 **
|
|
|
|
Delivered a typically industrious performance but another Manchester United
|
|
players whose final ball was lacking.
|
|
|
|
**Wayne Rooney 6
|
|
|
|
**One of his more frustrating afternoons and, in the current climate, risked
|
|
further punishment for his protestations at first-half booking
|
|
|
|
**Javier Hernandez 5 **
|
|
|
|
Largely subdued and, from his two best chances, was just unable to get onto
|
|
the end of crosses from Nani and Fabio
|
|
|
|
**Subs:** Antonio Valencia, Michael Owen and Dimitar Berbatov were all
|
|
introduced as Sir Alex Ferguson tried to inject some creativity to a flat
|
|
performance.
|
|
|
|
Owen was unfortunate not to win a penalty after provoking a clumsy Clichy
|
|
challenge.
