Arsenal have a truly world class talent in Kieran Tierney. His attacking prowess from left full back is reminiscent of Gareth Bale when he used to play as a LB. The way Tierney attacks space is truly something to behold, you can& #39;t stop him when he is in full flow.
Another thing that stands out for me in Tierney& #39;s game is his ability to make good decisions on the ball at full speed, aided by his very tidy passing that racks up a passing success percentage of 80.4.
Tierney isn& #39;t just a safe passer, he is also a progressive passer With 8.38 of his passes being into the final third per game.
Kieran Tierney makes 4.34 passes into the box per game, & Under Arteta who& #39;s system is Predicated on giving FB& #39;s licence to impact the attacking play from wide areas through overlaps especially from the LB, Tierney& #39;s desire to set up goals will be useful for Arsenal.
