Speaking to beIN Sports, Wenger said: "I would personally highlight the second half of Fred. Fred saved a few crosses in the box. Defensively he was outstanding and he worked unbelievably hard in the second half."

Wenger added: "The changes made a difference, [Paul] Pogba I thought did well.

"Pogba gave them more power out from deep in midfield by creating more dangerous balls.

"And when Pogba came on [Bruno] Fernandes became better.

"Fernandes had a poor first half but in the second half he came alive as well."
