# Arsenal player ratings: Southampton (H)

Arsenal ramped up the pressure on fifth-placed Chelsea with a 3-2 victory against Southampton at home.

The Gunners are now just three points behind their London rivals with six games left to play.

Goals from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and a double from Danny Welbeck was enough to give the Gunners all three points on what was a dramatic afternoon at the Emirates.

The game had a lively end with both Mohamed Elneny and Jack Stephens seeing red.

Here is how we rated the players after the game.
