William Saliba was handed the Man of the Match award for his amazing display in Arsenal’s gritty 0-0 draw against Man City.
The Frenchman, for the third time this season, was able to keep Erling Haaland & co quiet and ensure that the Gunners got another clean sheet over Pep Guardiola’s side.
There’s a reason why the Sky Sports pundits opted to give this award to Saliba over any other player, and that is because of how dominant he was.
The Frenchman won the most number of duels (7), possession recoveries (8) and successful tackles (2). He also made the most number of passes (25) and had the most touches of the ball (48) as well.
Saliba is now making it a habit of bullying Haaland and proved why he is regarded as one of the best centre-backs in world football with his colossal display.
