Hey guys, I got back from the game a while ago and I'm delighted with the win. I was kind of confident we'd win anyway, we always do well when the pressure is off us. And that's what annoys me with this team. I know they're good enough, but they only perform when it doesn't matter.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to next season. I think Wenger will finally strengthen the areas where we lack quality.

Szczesny (7) - great game. He fills me with confidence.

Sagna (6.5) - he had a good game. Didn't have much to do until Valencia came on and Nani switched to the left.

Djourou (7) - he wasn't troubled much, but he was there when we needed him. Made a couple of good tackles and had a decent game in general.

Koscielny (8) - MOTM imo. He was solid as usual. He made some great tackles and interceptions, and he was very composed on ball. Top, top CB.

Clichy (6) - I get this tingly feeling in my gut every time he's on the ball. He just looks shaky. He gave the ball away needlessly on a few occasions, but he also made a few good clearances.

Song (7.5) - he had a fantastic game. He hasn't played this well in weeks. He made some great tackles and broke up play well.

Wilshere (7) - brilliant as usual. Didn't do anything wrong and made a few decent passes. Future world star.

Ramsey (7) - I'm so happy for Aaron. I really am. He had a good game today and he took his chance really well. He added that extra grit in midfield and he worked very hard. He did give away a few silly freekicks near the end though.

Walcott (7) - he had a good game Theo. He put in a few very good crosses and he didn't do much wrong.

Nasri (6) - pretty ineffective tbf. Not his best game.

RVP (7) - great footwork to set up the goal. He probably would've scored if Vidic didn't block the ball with his hand. His decision making could've been a bit better towards the end though, we had a few chances to finish Man Utd off on the break.

Subs:

Arshavin (7.5) - I lost count of the amount of times he made a tackle or an interception. I couldn't believe my eyes. He didn't do much going forward, but his work rate really impressed me.

Squillaci (6.5) - surprisingly, he didn't do anything wrong after coming on. He didn't have much to do (credit to the rest of the team), but he did make a interception.

Eboue (6.5) - he was brought on to stop Evra bombing down the left, and he done his job.

Overall I think the whole team played well and we deserved to win.

What are your match ratings, fellow Gooners?
 
I'd give all of the players an extra point each - I think they all did well, and performed together solidly as a team <ok>
