Arsenal 1 Norwich 0 LIVE REACTION: Aubameyang the Gunners hero as Arteta's side pick up first Premier League win

ARSENAL RATINGS

Ainsley Maitland-Niles - 6 (subbed 82 mins)

The midfielder started fresh off the back of his public plea to leave the club to go somewhere he was 'wanted'.

He showed some tidy touches and played some forward-thinking passes.

But didn't really have an effect on the game.

Albert Sambi Lokonga - 6 (subbed 62 mins)

The Belgian put in another solid midfield performance for the Gunners.

Showed some nice touches, but was pulled off after 62 minutes for midfield main man Thomas Partey.

Martin Odegaard - 6

The summer arrival didn't really have a big impact on the game for the Gunners.

Showed some nice touches at times, but didn't do enough.

Bukayo Saka - 7

Always lively, always looking to take on his man.

Was unlucky not to get a goal in the final minutes, curling a shot just wide of the far post.

One of the first names on Arteta's teamsheet.

Nicolas Pepe - 7

The winger showed his quality this afternoon.

He was taking on his man, trying to create and get shots off of his own.

Was unlucky to see two efforts bounce off the post in a matter of seconds, but the ball then fell to Aubameyang who tapped the winner home.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang - 7

The club captain got Arsenal's first Premier League goal of the season to seal three points.

Played his role in the build-up to chances and enjoyed drifting wide.

Caused Norwich captain Grant Hanley problems all afternoon.
