Player Ratings: Fulham 1-1 Arsenal 

Arsenal had to settle for a 1-1 draw at Fulham

Mikel Arteta's Gunners missed the chance to close the gap to Premier League leaders Liverpool to four points after having a late goal disallowed at Craven Cottage on a frustrating afternoon in west London.

GK: David Raya - 6/10 - Should have prevented Raul's early goal for Fulham as the angle was in his favour 

RB: Thomas Partey - 5/10 - Should have scored with a set-piece header, but missed when well-placed for the second time this week

CB: William Saliba - 7.5/10 - Scored his second goal in a week to give the Gunners hope 

CB: Jakub Kiwior - 5/10 - Allowed Raul to race through on goal. Despite encouraging displays recently still has the propensity to allow the opposition to score through errors, positional or otherwise 

LB: Jurrien Timber - 6/10 - A powerful presence but couldn't get Arsenal over the line 

CM: Martin Odegaard - 6.5/10 - For once the Gunners captain was unable to inspire his team to three points 

CM: Jorginho - 6/10 - Not as influential as we all would have liked 

CM: Declan Rice - 6.5/10 - Fired a first half chance wide 

RW: Bukayo Saka - 7/10 - Late winner disallowed 

ST: Kai Havertz - 6/10 - Hooked for Jesus who was equally anonymous 

LW: Leandro Trossard - 6/10 - Lively without threatening

SUBSTITUTES:

Gabriel Martinelli - 4/10 - (60' for Trossard) Offside position cost Arsenal the game 

Mikel Merino (74' for Jorginho) - 5/10

Gabriel Jesus (74' for Havertz) - 4/10 Lacks confidence, and is a busted flush - quite simply a move would benefit all parties 

Ethan Nwaneri (79' for Odegaard) -6/10  bright but failed to make an impact 

Subs not used:

Neto (GK),

Ayden Heaven,

Kieran Tierney,

Myles Lewis-Skelly,

Raheem Sterling
