Performing well in his first season as an Arsenal starter, William A cross (22 years old, 33 games and 3 goals in all competitions this season) missed the home stretch of the season. A regrettable injury absence for Jamie Carragher, who expects more from the French central defender.
“Defensively, that’s where bt hurts. When you think of title winners, you go through players in my position: Vincent Kompany, Virgil van Dijk, Nemanja Vidic, Rio Ferdinand, Jaap Stam, John Terry. When I look Arsenal’s centre-backs, I don’t think they have any of them yet, although Saliba could become one. with Saliba in central defense is a myth,” the consultant told Monday Night Football.
“I think he has the potential to become a Virgil van Dijk, a Vincent Kompany or a Rio Ferdinand, those kinds of players. I’m not saying he wouldn’t have made a huge difference in the second half of the game. season. He would have done it, because he’s better than Rob Holding, he’s better than Kiwior, there’s no doubt about it. But he was still making mistakes that led to goals,” Carragher said.
