Odegaard said about White: “Also Ben on the right side today was really good. We had some good combinations, so it was good fun.”
Our VERDICT: TOP-CLASS PLAYER
In our view, Ben White is one of the best defenders in the Premier League and is a key player for Arsenal.
Despite being a centre-back by trade, the 25-year-old has operated at right-back throughout the season.
And he has been brilliant.
Just as he was against Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon.
While was brilliant going on the attack in the London derby.
The Arsenal right-back’s delivery was precise, and his movement really affected the Palace defenders.
White ended up with an assist as well.
According to WhoScored, White played one key pass, had a pass accuracy of 83%, won one header, took 67 touches, made one tackle, three interceptions and three clearances, and put in two crosses.
