Arsenal rounded off their US tour with a resounding 4-0 victory over London rivals Chelsea in the Florida Cup. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The Gunners were dominant from the outset, taking advantage of a Chelsea outfit that looked undercooked and unsure in their fresh 4-2-3-1 system. The Blues struggled to build up in the face of a rampant Arsenal press, and Mikel Arteta’s men were able to sustain pressure as a result.<\/p>\n

Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring midway through the first half with a deft flick over Edouard Mendy before their lead was doubled before the break via a pinpoint Martin Odegaard finish.<\/p>\n

Chelsea recuperated at the break and reverted to their typical back three which saw them improve, but it was the Gunners who bagged the third goal through Bukayo Saka.<\/p>\n

The pace of the contest dwindled as both managers rung the changes, with Arsenal waltzing home to a comfortable 4-0 triumph after Albert Sambi Lokonga put the finishing touches on the win with a header from close range.<\/p>\n

Here are the Arsenal player ratings from Saturday night’s victory in the Florida Cup.<\/p>\n

Aaron Ramsdale (GK) \u2013 7\/10 \u2013<\/strong> Rarely tested and stellar distribution. This was a good night for Rambo,<\/p>\n

Ben White (RB) \u2013 6\/10 \u2013<\/strong> Comfortable defensively and got on the overlap regularly. Important minutes for White after recovering from a minor issue.<\/p>\n

William Saliba (CB) \u2013 7.5\/10 \u2013<\/strong> Yep, Arsenal have got a good one. It wasn’t the busiest night for Saliba but every action he performed was assured. Super quick recovery runner.<\/p>\n

Gabriel (CB) \u2013 7\/10 \u2013<\/strong> The Brazilian’s aggression deterred Kai Havertz, who wasn’t given a sniff by the Arsenal defense. Like Saliba, Gabriel wasn’t particularly busy despite playing the full 90 but he didn’t put a foot wrong<\/p>\n

Oleksandr Zinchenko (LB) \u2013 6\/10 \u2013<\/strong> Slotted in seamlessly at left-back and produced several moments of technical brilliance before he was substituted at half-time.<\/p>\n
