EVERTON

Jordan Pickford – 6

A quiet and unexpected afternoon after a controversial week for the English number one.

Seamus Coleman – 7

Arsenal rarely threatened Everton 's right and this was largely due to the performance of the Irishman. It was as solid as a rock at the back, which allowed Richarlison to attack.

Marco Silva's team is ninth after his victory against Arsenal

Kurt Zouma – 7

Put his body at stake on more than one occasion to smother the dangerous Arsenal attacks. Had the chance to play quickly against Alexandre Lacazette in the penalty area, but in the end, it was a great afternoon job for the 24-year-old.

Phil Jagielka – 8

Driven into action after Michael Keane withdrew from Everton's starting line due to illness, the former English defender used all his experience to stop Arsenal.

He also appeared to score the crucial winner of this fantastic afternoon for the 36-year-old.

Lucas Digne – 7

Received some tough challenges in the beginning, but he showed a lot of character to fight to produce an excellent performance for his team.

Idrissa Gueye – 8

He was everywhere for Everton. He expertly protected his back, ending the threat of Mesut Ozil and Henrikh Mkhitaryan. It was a performance that impressed Sky Sports & # 39; Jamie Redknapp. "People talk about Fernandinho as the best, and I believe it, but Gueye, for the moment, is worth as much as anyone," Redknapp said. "He did not stop the whole game and everything he did was excellent, his full game is sensational, his energy and the way he feels the danger constantly for his team, you need of a player like this on your team. "

André Gomes – 7

Alongside Gueye, he covered every blade of grbad at Goodison Park while Everton won the midfield battle. He drove Everton on every occasion and his partnership with Gueye was one of the key factors in Everton 's victory. Booked early for a late challenge on Sokratis but it does not detract from its excellent performance.

Gylfi Sigurdsson – 7

Has seen a lot of ballooning and made a number of long-range efforts that did not hit the target. The Icelandic international had a clear opportunity to finish on all three points, but he scored for Leno for the first time in a row.

Bernard – 8

The attacker is becoming a fan favorite at Goodison Park. He continued his beautiful form with a performance full of skill and determination. He will be disappointed not to be able to score his goal after missing a face to face with Bernd Leno.

Richarlison – 7

The Brazilian has caused a lot of problems to Nacho Monreal because of his speed and his trickery. However, his finish and his last ball let him down several times.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin – 8

Chosen as Sky sportsMan of the match by Alan Smith, the Under-21 striker in England has been a thorn for Arsenal defenders. His pace, power, and pace of work have caused Shkodran Mustafi, Sokratis, and Nacho Monreal all sorts of problems all afternoon.

Alex Scott, Sky Sports expert, was impressed by the 22-year-old. "We have to talk about the man from the Calvert-Lewin match, he added another dimension to this side," she said. "For the moment, this team is a solution because, with its energy and removing the defenders of Arsenal as it was today in the chains, if it is another player. Everton in a different game, they do not do these raids and aren "They do not think the ball will come out of the game, but fans of Everton love it, they want to see it from their players. "

SUBS

Walcott – 6

Given 11 minutes to make an impact against his former club. Produces a beautiful cross that Sigurdsson could not convert.

Lookman – n / a

Not long enough to evaluate.

Davies – n / a

Not long enough to evaluate.

ARSENAL

Bernd Leno – 7

The German had an uncertain time against a bad pbad back in the first half, but he made up for that with an excellent lock to deny Bernard and keep Arsenal in the game late. He could do nothing to prevent the winner of Jagielka from taking his 10th minute in a difficult afternoon for his team.

Ainsley Maitland-Niles – 5

The young Englishman has been in excellent shape in recent weeks, but he had a day off at Goodison Park against Digne and Bernard. A throw-in that came out of the second-half match summed up his afternoon.

Will the missing form of Arsenal cost them?

Arsenal have participated in Sunday's game with Everton after three straight wins in all competitions, but their lugubrious form outside threatens to make them lose their place in the top four in the Premier League.

Shkodran Mustafi – 4

Another difficult afternoon for the German defender. He looked far away from being comfortable at the heart of Arsenal 's defense and looked like an accident that was waiting for him when the balloon was near him. Reserved in second half when he was second to the ball ahead of Calvert-Lewin.

Sokratis Papastathopoulos – 5

He booked early in the game for a block on Calvert-Lewin, which means he's now going to miss the next two Arsenal games in the Premier League against Watford and Crystal Palace. Far from being comfortable with the pace and power of Everton's advanced line, especially Calvert-Lewin.

Nacho Monreal – 5

It was a difficult afternoon for all Arsenal defenders. The Everton forwards did not give a moment of rest to the line of the Gunners with Monreal, particularly in difficulty, by Richarlison. His frustrations evaporated in the last minutes, while he was reserved for dissent.

Sead Kolasinac – 5

The Bosnian has worked hard for Arsenal this season, but he made a bad performance in Merseyside. His game let him down several times when Arsenal had managed to place the ball in good positions on the left. Hung at half-time by Emery.

3:07
Unai Emery said that Arsenal 's attack had improved in the second half at Goodison Park, but that his defense had worsened.

Matteo Guendouzi – 5

Another off-color performance of a player in red. Guendouzi was a real positive for Arsenal this season, but he was the shadow of the player we saw in his first season with the Gunners. Another who had been booked early after a poor challenge on Digne.

Mohamed Elneny – 4

Preferred in the midst of Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey but the Egyptian has struggled to make a difference. Renewed to replace Granite Xhaka, injured, and Lucas Torreira, suspended, he was replaced at half-time after failing.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan – 5

The Armenian international was far from his best as Arsenal struggled in the last third. He showed a shine of brilliance in the second half, pbading Coleman before bending the ball atrociously beyond the far post.

Mesut Ozil – 4

He made his first away start in 2019, but he will not win more this season if his performance at Goodison Park was impressive. The German, who was the captain of Arsenal for the day, was struggling to get into the match and was eventually replaced in the 74th minute. Perhaps his biggest contribution of the day came when he threw his coat towards the coaching staff of Everton 's Arsenal bench as a result of a disagreement on the side.

Alexandre Lacazette – 5

It was a small affair for the French against Jagielka and Zouma. He had called for a penalty early in the match after being caught by Zouma's clumsy challenge, but it was then a rather calm afternoon for the striker.

1 – Arsenal attempted a single shot in the first half – the least often in the first half of a Premier League game since May 2016 against Man City (a goal also). Blunt.

SUBS

Aaron Ramsey – 6

The Welsh did his best to instill some urgency into the game of Arsenal. A few minutes after being on the field, he had an opportunity for glory, but his fly was very high on Pickford's crossbar.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang – 4

Another rookie to revitalize Arsenal at halftime, but the striker, who has 17 goals in the league, failed to get the required impact.

Alex Iwobi – 6

After 16 minutes to make an impact, the 22-year-old made two excellent races in the finals. He managed to create an opening for Lacazette but the Frenchman lost his balance at the crucial moment.
