Raya – 9, Martinelli – 6: Arsenal player ratings in Newcastle win

Incredible performance from the Arenal keeper

David Raya (9/10):

Without Raya’s four impressive saves in the first half, Arsenal might not have won at all. His kicking was shaky, but his shot-stopping was world-class and crucial.

Declan Rice (8/10):

Quiet in the first half, but came alive when it mattered most. His stunning winner capped off another big moment in a standout season.

Jakub Kiwior (7/10):

Many doubted him stepping in for Gabriel, but he delivered a composed and solid display with key tackles and clearances.

Myles Lewis-Skelly (7/10):

Worked hard to inject some energy on the left and in midfield. A lively presence, even if not always effective.

Bukayo Saka (6.5/10):

Not his most dazzling day, but his relentless pressing set up the winning goal. Came off late for Havertz.

Thomas Partey (6.5/10):

Did his part sweeping up danger, but some of his decisions invited pressure rather than relieving it.

Martin Odegaard (6.5/10):

Got the assist, but still far from his best. Lacked spark and came off in added time.

Ben White (6.5/10):

Still finding rhythm after injury. Played his part in the clean sheet but looked rusty at times.

William Saliba (6/10):

Marked his 100th Premier League game with a solid if brief outing. Subbed at half-time, but defended well during his shift.

Gabriel Martinelli (6/10):

Struggled in front of goal but contributed with energy and smart ball-carrying under pressure.

Leandro Trossard (6/10):

Switched roles with Martinelli throughout but failed to make a real impact before being subbed.

Riccardo Calafiori (6/10):

Entered at halftime for Saliba, showing confidence by pushing forward to support the attack.

Kai Havertz (6/10):

Returned from injury, coming on as a substitute for Saka.
