Arsenal player ratings vs Fulham: Bukayo Saka’s back! ‘Starboy’ shines brightest as Gunners go six points clear – and boost goal difference – in easy win at the Emirates


David Raya (6/10):

Had almost nothing to do against a feeble Fulham side.

Ben White (5/10):

The weak link in the Arsenal back four. Looked to get forward when he could but his distribution was poor.

William Saliba (7/10):

With nothing to do in defence, the Frenchman was able to venture forward at times and nearly set up his central defensive partner Gabriel for a goal with a beautiful ball to the back post.

Gabriel Magalhaes (7/10):

Won an unsurprisingly physical battle with Fulham striker Jimenez and, as usual, caused chaos at set-pieces.

Riccardo Calafiori (8/10):

Recalled at left-back and while the Italian was unlucky to see a fine header (rightly) ruled out for offside and another hit the bar, he proved an excellent outlet down the left flank all evening. Also made a crucial block to deny Jimenez in the first half and will be hoping to start the second leg against Atleti.
