Perri Gets 4.5, Tanaka With 5 | Leeds United Players Rated In Poor Loss Vs Arsenal | OneFootball

Leeds United clashed heads with Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium earlier this evening as they looked to earn a good result on their travels in the Premier League. The Whites made a slow start to the game and conceded the opening goal in the 34th minute when Jurrien Timber found the back of the net. Bukayo Saka doubled Arsenal’s advantage in the first half injury-time as Daniel Farke’s men went into the half-time break 2-0 down on the scoreline.

Viktor Gyokeres got his name on the scoresheet in the 48th minute before Timber scored again in the 56th minute. Gyokeres added another goal from the penalty spot late in the game as Leeds United crashed to a poor 5-0 loss away from home.

Let’s take a look at how each Leeds United player fared during the clash against the Gunners.

RB: Jayden Bogle – 6/10

He did his fair share of defending inside his half, but it was not enough.

CB: Joe Rodon – 6/10

Rodon made a lot of important clearances at the back but failed to keep things solid defensively.

CB: Pascal Struijk – 5.5/10

He cleared his lines when he could, but won’t be pleased after shipping in five goals today.
