Arsenal defender William Saliba don declare say Declan Rice be the man wey deserve PFA Players’ Player of the Year award for this season. The Frenchman, wey don stand strong for Arsenal defence, talk say Rice dey the top choice. But the matter no simple, as Bruno Fernandes from Manchester United don set record with 21 assists for one Premier League season.
Saliba, wey don be key for Arsenal watertight backline, talk through Arsenal official media: ‘He’s the man! He’s the Player of the Season!’ The 25-year-old centre-back believe say Rice don do well well to win the award. However, pundits like Rio Ferdinand dey argue say Fernandes don outshine Rice, David Raya, and Gabriel Magalhaes this campaign.
Alan Shearer, on the other hand, don praise Rice and call am the best player for Premier League. The debate dey hot because Rice fit become champion with Arsenal, wey go help am for voting. But Fernandes, wey be attacking player, don break assist record and dey more important to United than Rice dey for Arsenal. This thing fit make Rice miss the award.
Saliba no directly mention Fernandes, but e hint say the Portuguese no get better season than Rice. The Arsenal colossus don be underappreciated sometimes because of e quiet style, but e remain crucial for Gunners defence. E barely make many errors, and e don help Arsenal reach top.
Rice don be phenomenal this term, and e fit win the award if e become Premier League champion. But Fernandes, with e assist record, dey give strong competition. The PFA award go depend on how players vote, and the matter no go easy.
