How Arsenal’s players rated during their challenging 2-0 win over Hull City

Kieran Gibbs – Returned with a calm and composed performance. It was his blocked shot that led to Sanchez poking the ball over the line, and overall he did enough to warrant another start – can count himself fortunate to escape with a yellow for a last-man challenge on Markovic though. 6.

Laurent Koscielny – Sat deep at the heart of Arsenal’s defence to mop up anything that breached the midfield, leading by example as ever. Solid in the air against Hull’s physical presence throughout the match and kept his side’s shape during a testing final fifteen. 7.

Shkodran Mustafi – Dealt well with Hull’s sustained attacking threat at the Emirates, cutting out numerous crosses as the visitors looked to work the ball out wide. Needs to work on his composure, but he came back well from a shocking performance against Chelsea. 6.

Hector Bellerin – Recovered in time after a nasty clash last weekend, and continued his usual attacking instincts as Arsenal pressed. Linked up well early on and flashed just wide, and continued to press forward as his side searched for a second. 7.
