Lucas Torreira won it for Arsenal late on

Arsenal, who have extended their unbeaten run to 21 games, would have been kicking themselves if they hadn’t won asAubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette were wasteful in front of goal.How did the Arsenal team perform individually? Scroll down for talkSPORT.coms player ratings. Bernd Leno – 5Had just one save to make, a routine stop to deny Alex Pritchard.StephanLichtsteiner – 6 Did not do too badly playing out of position at centre-back. However, he was sacrificed at half-time as Arsenal made a double attacking change.Sokratis Papastathopoulos – 7 His fine start to the season shows no sign of slowing down. He was a rock and a leader in the Arsenal defence.Shkodran Mustafi – 6 Went off with a hamstring injury just after the hour mark. Had a comfortable afternoon up until then.4

Lucas Torreira is loving life at Arsenal

Hector Bellerin – 7 He was up and down the right channel throughout the afternoon and was Arsenal’s most attacking player on a day where their creative stars failed to show up.LucasTorreira – 8 Gave Arsenal so much energy in midfield like he always does. He is becoming a fans’ favourite at the Emirates – and his late goal will only increase his popularity.MatteoGuendouzi – 7 He followed up his impressive display at Manchester United with another fine performance against Huddersfield. He used the ball so smartly. Booked for diving late on, though.Granit Xhaka – 5 Surrendered possession too easily at times and was moved into defence in the second-half where he fared slightly better.4

Granit Xhaka played in defence in the second-half

Sead Kolasinac – 5 His crossing wasn’t quite there. With Nacho Monreal returning from injury today, he’ll be breathing down Kolasinac’s neck for a starting place.Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang – 4 Missed a sitter in the first-half after failing to direct Granit Xhaka’s cross on target from close-range. It wasn’t his day in front of goal.Alexandre Lacazette – 4 His movement caused problems for Huddersfield’s defence, but he blazed over when unmarked in the box from 12 yards. Unlucky to have his goal controversially ruled out after he was adjudged to be offside. Hooked off at half-time.4

Alexandre Lacazette was subbed off at half-time

Substitute: Henrikh Mkhitaryan – 4 Failed to improve Arsenal’s attacking play – and was anonymous after coming on at half-time.Substitute: Alex Iwobi – 4 His first touch was all over the place today. Ruined numerous Arsenal attacks in the second-half.Substitute: Nacho Monreal – 5 Slotted in seamlessly after replacing the injured Shkodran Mustafi.
