How Arsenal rated in Monday night’s FA Cup victory over Sutton United

Mohamed Elneny – He looked okay without ever standing out before departing through injury. The Egyptian did little to further his cause to be a first team regular in central midfield. 4

Granit Xhaka – It wasn’t a great performance from the Swiss international as he failed to make a single ball recovery. Considering he is in the team to be a dominating presence, it is a concern that he couldn’t win the ball back once against a non-league side. 4

Jeff Reine-Adelaide – Arsene Wenger gave him another opportunity in the FA Cup, but he didn’t stand out as he did against Southampton. Like Xhaka, he failed to make a single ball recovery during the match and was dispossessed seven times. 3

Theo Walcott – He was one of the more experienced players in the team and marked his performance with his 100^th Arsenal goal. The Englishman has been a great player for the club and he played a key role in helping the side reach the next round. 7
