Arsenal 0-0 Chelsea: Premier League Player Ratings

John Obi Mikel: Went in for a 50-50 with Arteta, but both players' studs were showing. Unspectacular anchor for the Blues. 5.5/10.

Frank Lampard: Rattled underside of the bar with a volley half an hour in and worked Szczesny later on. Still mobile despite advancing years and linked well with front four. 6.5/10.

Willian: Created Ramires chance, but got away with a mistime challenge on Walcott. Worked Szczesny late in first half. Good on the counterattack here. Subbed. 6/10.

Fernando Torres: Ran the channels and worked Szczesny with a shot on the turn during ascendant first half spell. Much quieter after the break, but quality of service into the Spaniard was poor. Subbed. 5.5/10.

Eden Hazard: Lovely ball over the top teed up Lampard effort after half an hour. Belgian star did little else thereafter though. Needs to produce this sort of guile on a more consistent basis. Subbed with less than 20 minutes remaining. 5.5/10.

Subs: Andre Schurrle: Thrown on by Mourinho for the last 20 minutes or so. German forward was rather average. 5/10.

Oscar: Given 15 minutes only and it will be interesting to see how much the Brazilian plays over a wet and windy festive period. Rating N/A.

David Luiz: Only got five minutes. Rating N/A.
