Arsenal player ratings after 3-2 defeat at Stoke: Disastrous defending sinks Gunners

Substitute) Danny Welbeck – 6.0

Decent when he came on, although needed to get his head up a bit and be aware of his surroundings.

Substitute) Lukas Podolski – 5.0

Didn’t do anything particularly wrong, but was practically anonymous after replacing Giroud in the second half.

Substitute) Joel Campbell – N/A

A cameo performance, barely featured.
