Player ratings: Luton 3-4 Arsenal

Arsenal were involved in a blockbuster Tuesday night game, for the neutral anyway!

Arsenal went ahead twice, only to be pegged back by two goals from corners where Arsenal’s keeper and defence should’ve done better.

Arsenal then fell behind when Ben White and David Raya made errors to allow Barkley an easy goal. But the Gunners fought back, Kai Havertz poking home a third and Declan Rice nodding in a winner at the death. A hugely important three points in the end and Mikel Arteta will breathe a sigh of relief.
