Jurrien Timber of Arsenal is the greatest full-back in the Premier League, according to former Manchester United player Gary Neville. Additionally, he considers the Dutchman to be the second-best player in his position in the world of football. Two years ago, Timber left Ajax to join Arsenal for an estimated £38.5 million, but an ACL injury prevented him from having much of an impact in his debut season. The Dutchman overcame the obstacle to play 48 games across all competitions for Arsenal the previous season, and he has been one of Mikel Arteta’s best players this year. Only Real Madrid defender Dani Carvajal, in Neville’s opinion, is superior to Timber at right back.Neville stated on The Overlap, “I was thinking last night while watching Arsenal, Lewis-Skelly, and obviously Timber played. You have Ben White and Calafiori, and I thought all of Arsenal’s full-backs are better than Liverpool’s, all four of them. That’s a big problem for Liverpool.” “Timber is now the league’s top full-back. “I believe that Timber is practically what I would consider to be… do you know the Real Madrid player? Carvajal. He’s the best, in my opinion. And as far as being able to do that bit and do that bit, I believe Timber is the closest to him right now. He does the forward piece adequately, but he definitely cuts everything off down his side.Arsenal has been commended for the caliber of the team that Mikel Arteta has put together, and they are now leading the Premier League title battle.
