Arsenal took a huge step towards finishing in the top four as they beat Manchester United 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
Granit Xhaka gave the Gunners the lead with a swerving strike from outside the box in the first half before Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang made it two from the penalty spot.
Sportsmail's Sami Mokbel runs the rule over both sets of players.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang celebrates scoring Arsenal's second against Manchester United
Bernd Leno - 7.5
Two crucial saves to deny Lukaku were crucial for Arsenal.
Ainsley Maitland-Niles - 7.5
A nervous start, but grew in stature. Was a colossus for his team by the end. 7.5
Sokratis - 7
Quickly becoming a supporters cult hero. Another powerful display. Booked.
Laurent Koscielny - 8
His experience was decisive in containing United's strikeforce. Led by example.

Nacho Monreal - 7
Quietly went about his business in Arsenal's three-man defence. Tenacious performance.
Sead Kolasinac - 7
Marauding display. Up down Arsenal's left side like a steam train.
Aaron Ramsey - 6.5
Broke forward when he could but the Welshman was a picture of discipline.
