Jens: 5
Eboue: 6, not quite there defensively yet but going forward he was useful
Kolo: 6, dont know what he was doing for the goal, rest of the game he was great
Gallas: 6, not seen it properly but if it was a intentional hand ball on the line he's a lucky boy.
Clichy: 6, did not have much to do, but poor distribution letting him down.
Rosicky: 9, possibly his best performance in an Arsenal shirt. If he can reproduce that first half display consistantly and for 90mins he will be a star next season.
Cesc: 8, best performance in a long long time. That goal really seemed to take a load off his shoulders, as seen in his celabrations.
Gilberto: 7, started the game with the same distribution problems but it didnt last, solid defensively.
Hleb: 6, gave the ball away too often but won it back a fair few times and created a few openings.
Freddie: 7, worked his arse off, great movement, still no end product but created loads of space for others.
Ade: 7.5, his performance today not being appreciated enough, worked his arse off, stopped countless Bolton moves before they started, and also linked play really well. Missed another easy chance though, and its what will cost him his place in the first team.

Jens 6.5 - Thought he did well to collect from the set pieces, and really kept the team from panicking by doing so (althought he mis cued 1 or 2)
Eboue 6 - I saw him trying today when he was upfield to get back, which i guess is an improvement. Not as effective as he can be, but overall a decent performance.
Toure 7 - Great game today, commanding in the air, controlling on the ground. Add to that 1 or 2 great strikes and theres an easy 7
Gallas 6 - Thought he did well AFTER we conceded. Made some good tackles at the back when Bolton hit us on the counter
Clichy 7 - He's a defender 1st, which is why iv given him a 7. Defensively he was fantastic (for a small and relatively 'weak' player), and hardly anything got past him. Offensively - crossing was poor, he made 2 today that i can remember and they were both terrib;e. Think he just gave up crossing after that
Hleb 7 - Thought Hleb was brilliant today. He helped Eboue out and worked hard for the team, and going foward he got things moving. He came into the centre a lot, maybe that was his instructions, but he did well, with good passing minus 1 or 2. Shouldv got on the score sheet
Cesc 7.5 - Iv been saying for a while that Cesc needs a break, but he didnt show it today. Great performance, what we expect of him, and we all felt relief when he scored.
Gilberto 7 - Did his job well, and made good passes.
Rosicky 8 - Fantastic 1st half, unbelieveable. Everything we did up front came from him, he was pure class. Dropped a bit in the 2nd, but for me he was still MOTM.
Freddie 7 - Im starting to see a bit of the old Freddy in the past 5 games or so. OK his pace isnt what it used to be, but hes now a useful player, making runs, and getting into decent positions. Worked hard today and deserved his standing ovation
Ade 7 - Worked his arse off, running about EVERYWHERE. Unfortunatly, he cant score to save his life. Had a golden opportunity today, and disappointed us all by hitting it at Jussi. But apart from his lack of goal scoring threat, everything else he did was good. Strong, good hold up play, good passing and overall a very good performance

I'm surprised with the marks that Adebayor is getting. I've only seen the match once on a dodgy stream so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt but I don't think he deserved a 7.
Put it this way, if Cesc and Rosicky hadn't of scored, I bet everyone would be giving him 3 for missing that chance. And before anyone jumps in and says he set up the Rosicky goal, yeah I know but it was hardly a brilliant cross, Rosicky did great to make something of it.

He set-up the free header for Diaby and a easy chance for Ljungberg too.

So winning the ball countless times, linking up well, setting up Tomas, Freddie and Diaby, working hard all means nothing because he missed a chance?
I've spoken to 3 people who went to the game that thought Ade played really well.

Err no he didn't. His arm was out and ball came towards it at great pace and he was moving his arm away. I think he picked this up while at Chelsea

He probably thinks its legal the amount of times Terry gets away with diving saves.

Lehman - 6 Wouldn't blame him too much for the first goal but towards the end was uo to his usual theatrics on corners.
Eboue - 5.5 Complete lack of positional sense. He kept his maniac side hidden today thankfully.
Toure - 6.5 At fault for their first goal but had the gumption to move up and take one or two shots
Gallas - 6 Put in a few weak passes in the first half but improved as the game wore on
Clichy - 6.5 Didn't do much going forward but defended competently. And recovered smartly to foil Vaz Te on one occasion
Hleb - 6 Only for the way he played in Ade for our first goal. Otherwise his usual annoying performance. Gave away the ball a number of times and after the first shot took off his shooting boots. He really shirks his responsibility when it comes to finishing.
Cesc - 8 Took his goal well and was the source of most of our attacks in the first half.
Gilberto - 7 Nice pass to set up Cesc for the goal
Rosicky - 8 His goal was crucial as it allowed us to finish the first half strongly. Contribution dropped towards the end of the match.
Freddie - 7 Good work-rate and he came pretty close to connecting Cesc's cross early in the first half
Ade - 6.5 Has to improve his finishing. He alows himself to be intimidated by the keeper. Good work rate and all that but his primary role is to score goals.
Sus: Diaby -5.5 Missed a great chance but kept himself busy
Baptista - Why do we bother?

Lehmann - 5 - Shakey and got himself booked needlessly again. How many is that now? He must be near a suspension now. A few good saves though.
Clichy - 6 - Decent defensively, disappointing going forward.
Gallas - 6 - Not his best game. Lucky Anelka's shot went over the line.
Toure - 6.5 - Not at his best defensively, but added some positive forward drive.
Eboue - 5 - He really needs to improve his concentration. I don't think his lack of sportsmanship will ever change.
Rosicky - 8 - Bright game, very lively. Made things happen and managed to finish for a change.
Fabregas - 8 - Ran the show in the second half, great finish too.
Gilberto - 6 - Ok, not really called upon.
Hleb - 6.5 - Better than previous games but still not great.
Ljungberg - 6.5 - Some good movement and worked hard for the team.
Adebayor - 7 - His touch let him down at key moments but worked tirelessly and made good opportunities for his teammates, including the cross for Rosicky's goal.
