Arsenal beat Nottingham Forest to 2-1 at the Emirates and unfortunately we couldn’t keep a clean sheet. Overall I’m happy with the first half performance, but it did get a little bit nervy in the second half after Forest scored their goal. Six minutes of amazing football led to 2 of Arsenal‘s goals From Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah. With Timbers injury, we did have some bad luck but I hope he’s going to be okay.

First Premier League win of the season. Let’s go! Onto the next one: bring on Crystal Palace. 

Arsenal 2-1 Nottingham Forest Arsenal Player Rating

Aaron Ramsdale: 7

Solid game could not do anything about the goal

Partey: 6.5

At Inverted RB was more a CDM then at RB

White: 6

Ben White overlap left of expose for the goal from Forest.

Saliba: 7

Solid .

Timber: 7

Was good but let’s hope that injury isn’t bad.

Rice: 7

Declan Rice has been phenomenal & almost scored too

Odegaard: 7

Solid game and second half he slowed down with the rest

Havertz: 6.5

Havertz gets too much hate. He did not have a bad game created a good chance for Rice & won most of his duels

Saka: MOTM 8.5

Bukayo Saka starts off where he left off last season, scoring a goal, having a man of the match performance and leaving people at the Emirates done after scoring a brilliant banger from outside the box with his left foot Starboy doing Starboy things.

Martinelli: 8

Martinelli looks really strong. Every time he goes into a 50-50 with Aurier, he comes out on winning. Also That pass by Martinelli leading up to Eddie Nketiah goal 😮‍💨

Nketiah: 8

🎶 Your defence is in trouble in Nketiah is in the room Score a good worked goal in 26 min i’m not ready to call him steady Eddie, but hopefully, keep it up.
