  Stipe Pletikosa

  A busy night on his debut. Brought down Nasri for the first penalty and could have perhaps done better with Arshavin's goal but did not look out of place.

  Kyle Naughton

  Lucky to stay on the pitch and only receive a yellow card after a wild challenge on Rosicky but was otherwise one of Spurs' more polished performers.

  Steven Caulker

  The 18-year-old Academy product did not look out of place on his club debut, shepherding Vela into the channels and using his height and power to dominate in the air. Made some excellent tackles but

  Benoit Assou-Ekotto

  Careless in possession but made some fine tackles and showed great energy on the left flank.

  David Bentley

  Playing against the club that nurtured him, did little to suggest that he should be a first-team regular. His set-piece delivery was mediocre. Looks a lost soul.

  Jake Livermore

  Substituted at half-time after spending the first period chasing shadows in central midfield.

  W. Palacios

  Struggled to get to grips with Arsenal's slick pass-and-move style but his energy helped pull his team-mates together after the break.

  Sandro

  Has the physique to be a midfield colossus but like a rabbit caught in the headlights early on. Gained in composure as the game went on.

  Roman Pavlyuchenko

  Did not show enough guile to trouble Koscielny and Djourou. Looked more comfortable when Keane joined him in the second half.

  Giovani dos Santos Flop of the Match

  Quieter than a church mouse. Stationed on the right flank, could not get involved and when he did, was easily snuffed out. Substituted at the break.

  Aaron Lennon

  His dribbling and speed brought a new dimension to the previously subdued Spurs attack.

  Robbie Keane

  Energised Spurs after the break with his liveliness. Scored a scuffed goal and could have added the winner in normal time but hit the post from two yards.

  Lukasz Fabianski

  Oh dear. The Arsenal No2 could - and should - have saved Keane's equaliser, which squirmed under his body. How many more chances does the fallible Pole get?

  Emmanuel Eboue

  Re-routed back to his old right-back position, he had a comfortable evening, making some fine tackles and always willing to bomb forward.

  Laurent Koscielny

  A fine display by the Frenchman. Made some excellent interceptions and held the defence together well when Spurs put Arsenal under pressure after the break.

•

  Johan Djourou

  The Swiss' career has stagnated over the last three seasons but he is a class act and showed enough poise to suggest he should still feature at Arsenal.

•

  Kieran Gibbs

  Gael Clichy should be worried. His understudy is breathing on his neck and ran to overtake. The England Under-21 international was reliable off the ball and superb on it, his touch and delivery far more reliable than the Frenchman's. Looks ready to be a regular now but hobbled off with what looked like a foot injury in extra time.

•

  3.00

  Henri Lansbury

  Angela Lansbury could have finished off Wilshere's whipped in cross but the 19-year-old showed great energy and hunger and his manic celebration for his goal showed how much it meant to him. Faded late on but an impressive display on the right flank.

•

  Denilson

  Directed operations well from his midfield anchorman role and provided the foundations to many of Arsenal's attacks with his simple but effective passing.

  Jack Wilshere Top of the Match

  Sensational before the break and at the heart of all Arsenal's excellent build-up play. A magnificent performance given the opposition and occasion, more impressive than his coming-of-age against Braga, in many way.

•

  Samir Nasri

  Tucked away both penalties with aplomb and was at the heart of Arsenal's slick build-up play with some nice touches in the hole behind the lone striker.

  3.00

  Tomas Rosicky

  Neat and tidy but could not find the killer pass and the victim of a wild challenge from Naughton. Hobbled on but substitued on the hour.

•

  Carlos Vela

  Only one chance came his way and he sent the header wide but needs to do more with his back to goal if he is to be anything other than a bit-part player.

  Andrey Arshavin

  A fine cameo by the Russia. A lovely dink to Nasri won the crucial first penalty and then scored the fourth with a powerfully driven left foot shot.

  Marouane Chamakh

  Brought greater guile to the Arsenal attack when he replaced Vela as the lone striker. Won the second penalty .
