Find out who impressed with our Player Ratings
GK: David Raya - 7.5/10 - An important reaction save to tip Joao Gomes' effort onto the woodwork in the first half and looked comfortable with Wolves intermittent aerial challenges. A vital clean sheet
RB: Ben White - 8/10 - Absolutely excellent on the right once again. Almost as important offensviely as he is defensively these days as we oost count of the times he overlapped to boost colleagues further forward. Good to see the travelling Arsenal support cheer him when Wolves fans were giving him stick
CB: William Saliba - 7.5/10 - Solid as he helped his teammates to a clean sheet after a difficult week
CB: Gabriel - 7.5/10 - Looked tired but kept battling throughout
LB: Jakub Kiwior - 7/10 - Park of a battling backline and ner stopped working - even if his duel with Joao Gomes didn't always turn out in his favour
DM: Declan Rice - 8/10 - Another who looked absolutely shattered and running on adrenaline - but battled from the first second to last to help the Gunners seal a vital victory
CM: Martin Odegaard - 7/10 - The Arsenal captain's late goal sealed such a vital victory to underline just how important he is to this side. Never stopped
CM: Kai Havertz - 6/10 - Lucky not to have had his ankle broken with a truly shocking first half challenge by Wolves' max Kilman - but refused to bow to the home side's physicality and led the line well
RW: Bukayo Saka - 7/10 - Yet another Gunner who looked tired and in need of rest. Will not get a break - and will not want a break with five games to go. Nearly scored with a mazy run at the end.
ST: Gabriel Jesus - 7/10 - Put in a shift but it would be nice for him to score
LW: Leandro Trossard - 8/10 - Opener moments before half time helped Arsenal on their way
