A fun little side project of my Arsenal Fan journey with a spreadsheet, previews and ratings.
With momentum gained and the squad looking the same fitness wise; the run for the finish starts against Wolves in midweek and then continues into the North London Derby on the weekend. It’s time for everyone to step up; especially Eze.

A solid selection providing minutes to players who deserve it while giving Saliba 60 before the next Premier League game after he missed Brentford through illness. Providing Salmon with further minutes while having Setford debut at home was lovely.

MANAGER. M.Arteta ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Players getting injured in the warm-up, when will that end and still adapted well. Needed to preserve Gabriel and Hincapie for the remainder of the season while Saka needed a few minutes to get back into things.

36. MID. M.Zubimendi
35. GKP. T.Setford
A little reshuffle after White had to come off and Zubimendi is just quality. A very nice debut for Setford with a wonderful solid first action of a huge mark in the box and then looked to play it out quickly.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
89. DEF. M.Salmon ⭐⭐⭐
A solid 30 minutes for the 16 year old; didn’t look out of place at all, apart from leaving the clearance for Kepa; probably could’ve taken ownership of that moment. But that will come in time.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
19. FWD. L.Trossard ⭐⭐⭐
Quality again; took his defender everywhere and made clever crosses into different areas of the box.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
14. FWD. V.Gyökeres ⭐⭐⭐
Hit the post with his first chance and moved alright. Chased and created space for the Martinelli header in the box.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
09. FWD. ⚽ G.Jesus ⭐⭐⭐⭐
A lovely finish for his goal. Moved in position out wide and centrally throughout the game; linking up, dragging defenders and creating threat.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
11. FWD. ⚽ G.Martinelli ⭐⭐⭐⭐
An excellent finish on his weaker foot; couldn’t have finished like this against Brentford? Offered a lot of threat in behind and swapped well with Jesus.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
20. FWD. ⚽ N.Madueke ⭐⭐⭐⭐
In an impressive run of form and finished his chance brilliantly. Dominated his full back in the build up to the third goal. Quality hour performances by providing the team with contribution and taking the burden off of Saka.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
07. FWD. B.Saka ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Didn’t look right in the previous game coming on but was much better now and hopefully he can return to full fitness soon. Looked great playing closer to the midfield but still has the ability to move out wide when he needs to. He won’t be able to get tagged playing like this.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
10. MID. 🅰️🅰️ E.Eze ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
An improved sensational performance with one beautiful line breaking pass for Madueke with a decent ball for Martinelli’s finish. Was everywhere; taking shots, linking up with Norgaard and Saka. He has to do this in the tougher competitions now.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
16. MID. 🅰️ C.Nørgaard ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
An excellent all round Norgihno performance; lovely passes over the top, superb assist for Jesus. Covered the ground and linked up well with Eze.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
49. DEF. M.Lewis-Skelly ⭐⭐⭐
Was looking forward to seeing him in midfield and it happened in the second half at times. Still decent performance but just needs to get that edge back in one on one situations.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
03. DEF. C.Mosquera ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Superb performance; made an amazing tackle in the first half but also lost his position which led to the shot. Still was quality throughout.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
02. DEF. W.Saliba ⭐⭐⭐
2nd gear after the illness. Ready for the remainder of the season.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
04. DEF. B.White ⭐⭐⭐
Solid; made runs both ways, defended well and made a beautiful pass for Gyokeres.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
13. GKP. K.Arrizabalaga ⭐⭐⭐
Solid distribution and a great save in the first half.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
Madueke continued his form as did Martinelli while Jesus scored a lovely dink making a good run. We will need all of our attackers in the coming games to mesh, combine and play different roles at different scenarios and challenges.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
The defence played well; especially Mosquera. What could have been a game for Lewis-Skelly in the midfield reverted to his normal role as he will probably develop a more midfield role in the future.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
Eze played more of the 8 role as he was a little deeper, combining with Norgaard. With Zubimendi and Rice, Eze should be able to play higher up and next to Gyokeres allowing him to be more intricate closer to the box.
February 16, 2026 at 5:12 AM
Eze linking up well and providing the intricate passes as Saka played in the 10 role was refreshing to see. It flowed well and created a freedom for Saka; preventing the usual doubling up on while Saka and Jesus rotated freely with the wingers.
