Alan Shearer believes Ezri Konsa has been the standout performer in the Premier League this season, praising the Aston Villa defender for his outstanding consistency and defensive performances.
🗣️ Alan Shearer: “I think the player of the season up to now has been Ezri Konsa. I just think when you look at the performances of Arsenal defensively, and look at his performances defensively, we haven’t even really mentioned them missing William Saliba. The only time we’ve mentioned him is in the last two weeks and that’s because everyone is thinking how is he going to get back in because Konsa has been that good.”
Konsa has apparently been so impressive that the conversation has shifted from Arsenal missing William Saliba to whether Saliba will automatically reclaim his place when he returns.
That’s how good his performances have been! Consistency, composure, defensive intelligence and leadership. He’s making a serious statement. 🪨👏
HAS EZRI KONSA BEEN THE BEST DEFENDER IN THE PREMIER LEAGUE THIS SEASON? 👀🔥
