Be honest did you expect it to go as easy as this? Do individual ratings matter on a night like this? Probably not, but Arsenal fans will have to reassess Le Plod after tonight's performance. He proved he could deliver when it counted. Nonetheless, on a night when everything went to plan,  lets have a look at the ratings provided by Moax below:

Cech - 7 did his job, some good punches out and one "Hollywood save"

Monreal - 8 do we expect any less of him?
Kos - 8 defended brilliantly as always
Mertasacker - 7 he isn't in the same class as Kos but he did what he did well, kept running wide in the first half.
Bellarin - 7 looked very nervous to begin with and it looked as though they were targeting him as a weak point, but he showed his class in the end

Flamini - 7 typical flamini performance, broke up the counter attacks well and quite happily yelled at every one to do their job.
Ramsey - 7 nice assist for the first goal and didn't sherk from his defencive dutys, too eager to go forward when we were 2 - 0 up.

Walcott - 6 looked shaper than I expected but you could see the rust, should have done better with his chance when Giroud made that run to pull the defenders away.
Ozil - 8 master class as always, that key pass to Ramsey in build up for the first blew my mind.
Campbell - 9 fantastic, played his little heart out and he must have been taking lessons from Ozil for his assist.

Giroud - 10 flawless, hold up play was amazing, took his chances, made chances, defended and showed his steel after rolling his ankle! He is proving me wrong, and I'm loving it!
