Arsenal cruised to a 4-0 victory over relegation doomed Ipswich Town at Portman Road on Easter Sunday. 

A brace from Leandro Trossard, sandwiched by a goal from Gabi Martinelli prior to a late fourth from Ethan Nwaneri was enough to seal a comfortable win in a match marred by Bukayo Saka being injured by Leif Davis' dangerous first half challenge that saw the Town left-back handed a straight red card.

Player Ratings:

David Raya: 7/10 - Alert to danger by playing as a sweeper keeper at times, but in truth had little to do as he cruised to another clean sheet

Ben White: 7/10 - Good to see the tenacious defender back in the starting XI

Wiliam Saliba: 7/10 - Purred through the game against soon to be doomed lightweight Ipswich attack

Jakub Kiwior: 7/10 - Another excellent performance following the Polish defender’s heroics in the Bernabeu this week

Alex Zinchenko: 7/10 - Solid and reliable. Late shot nearly made it five

Declan Rice: 7.5/10 - Must surely be recognised as the best English midfielder of his generation after his heroics in the Bernabeu, and was dominant at Portman Road

Martin Odegaard: 7/10 - Threaded the ball through to Trossard’s opener, with the skipper picking up an assist

Bukayo Saka: 7.5/10 - In a lively start at atmospheric Portman Road, Bernabeu hero Saka dovetailed well with Martin Odegaard, as the Gunners attempted to weave through the Ipswich backline. Outrageously hacked down by Leif Davis, that led to the Town left-back being handed a straight red car by referee Christopher Kavanagh. Despite the incident being completely Davis’ fault Ipswich fans opted to boo the

Mikel Merino: 7/10 - Paired up with Trossard as Arteta opted to play two up front - one of the previous times the tactic was used was during the 2-0 victory over the Parisians back in October. Grabbed an assist after a florid flick in the box that found Martinelli

Leandro Trossard: 8/10 - Excellent finish in a busy box to put the Gunners 1-0 ahead and deserved his second for showing such quick feet and clinical finishing

Gabi Martinelli: 7.5/10 - Showed composure to slot home and double the Gunners lead shortly after the half hour mark following an excellent flick in the box by Merino

Substitutes:

Myles Lewis-Skelly: 7/10 - Replaced Mikel Merino on 57 minutes

Ethan Nwaneri: 7.5/10 - Switched with the hobbling Saka shortly after the interval to play up front with Trossard and netted a late fourth to make it a hugely impressive nine goals for the season from the precocious teenager

Raheem Sterling: 6/10 - On for Martinelli late in the game but failed to make an impact

Kieran Tierney: 7/10 - The loyal servant swapped with Rice with the game already won

Nathan Butler-Oyedeji: 7/10 - Hale End graduate deserved his runout after sterling service with the U21s this season at Meadow Park

Abou Diaby, Aaron Ramsey, Eduardo. Arsenal (and the England national team don’t forget for you Arsenal haters & general racists out there) are lucky it didn’t happen to Saka here at Portman Road.
