3 players who impressed in first half v City — and 3 who have to improve

Arsenal are level with Man City at half-time at the Etihad (0-0). Here are the players who have impressed so far...

White. Benny Blanco put an excellent performance in the first half, very safe defensively and tries to make things happen up front.

Jesus. The Brazilian missed two good opportunities but at least he gets them. Very proactive and provides the spark for the Gunners in the final third — need more of that after the break.

Saliba. The centre-back has been keeping Haaland in his pocket so far. Solid, although needs to be more calm on the ball.

And here are three players who should improve after the break.

Kiwior. The Pole has struggled against Bernardo Silva so far, letting him dribble past him on multiple occasions. Quite slow on the ball, too.

Saka. The forward has been way too anonymous today. Sometimes you forget he's even on the pitch.

Odegaard. Made a couple of good passes but a few disappointing ones, too. Arsenal are missing his creativity.
