‘What a player that boy is:’ some Crystal Palace fans rave about Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s defensive performance
On Sunday afternoon, Crystal Palace drew high-flying Arsenal 2-2, denying the Gunners a 12th straight win in all competitions.
Palace’s 20-year-old fullback Aaron Wan-Bissaka played a massive role in securing the impressive result, constantly keeping Arsenal’s attackers in check all match.
The Eagles faithful hailed the performance of the Englishman after the match, as the youngster continues to turn in displays that warrant the attention of Gareth Southgate and indicate Crystal Palace have one of the brightest defenders in the country on their books.
Supporters were keen to recognise Wan-Bissaka’s superb one-on-one contributions, as the 20-year-old can match up to any winger in an individual battle and come out on top.
Wan-Bissaka was absolutely outstanding AGAIN.
What a player that boy is. That tackle on Iwobi in the first half was glorious.

Wan-Bissaka’s excellent display also led Palace fans to ask the England manager to have a look at the fullback. To date, the defender has most recently appeared for the England U-21s, but has yet to be called up to the Three Lions senior squad.
Aaron Wan Bissaka. Best wing back in the Prem. you know what to do!

In all, Aaron Wan-Bissaka seems poised to be one of the best defenders in the Premier League one day. At just 20 years of age, the youngster appears right at home lining up against one of the league’s most fearsome attacks, and his tremendous performance was justifiably appreciated by the Palace faithful.
