Ian Wright says Arsenal have a player who can ‘annoy people just by smiling’
Arsenal legend Ian Wright has made a very interesting observation about Ben White.
The Gunners are hard at work ahead of their big game against Liverpool tomorrow. They need the three points to have a realistic chance of winning the Premier League title. White is almost a guaranteed starter at right-back.
Ian Wright says Arsenal’s ‘Ben White can annoy people just by smiling’
Arsenal signed Ben White from Brighton and Hove Albion back in the summer of 2021.
There were a lot of doubters back then, with at the Englishman right after his debut at Brentford.
However, White has been a sensational signing for Arsenal. He is one of their most consistent performers and is an absolute fan favourite at the Emirates.
Arsenal fans don’t just love White for his ability on the pitch but also because he can get under the opponents’ skin with some of his actions.
Ian Wright and his podcast pals Ryan Hunn and Flo Lloyd-Hughes were putting together a “Players You Only Love if They’re on Your Team XI” on yesterday.
White’s name came up at right-back, and Wright jokingly said the Arsenal defender has a smile that can annoy people.
He said: “Ben White has got that vibe as well. Ben White can annoy people just by smiling.
“That’s a gift!”
Arsenal fans love Ben White
Ben White’s performances often go under the radar but Arsenal fans absolutely love him.
The 25-year-old is one of the most consistent performers in the country. He puts in a shift every week, is solid at both ends of the pitch and is extremely reliable.
To add to that, his personality is something Arsenal fans really adore, even though it may annoy a few rival players and supporters.
Arsenal take on Liverpool tomorrow, and White will need to have a good game against their attackers. If he is at his best, the Gunners’ chances of victory will increase significantly.
