‘Kieran Tierney isn’t the answer to Arsenal’s problems… he’s not even in top eight Premier League left-backs!’ – Adrian Durham responds to fan hype ......
Nov 24, 2020
Adrian Durham has taken aim at Arsenal fans over their hype of Kieran Tierney, claiming the defender isn’t as good as they say he is.
Tierney has earned praise for his passion and recent performances in a Gunners shirt, but Durham insists he is not the answer to all their problems.
In fact, the outspoken talkSPORT host claims the Scotland international isn’t even in the top eight left-backs in the Premier League, and is ‘a million miles’ behind Scottish compatriot, fellow left-back and Liverpool star Andy Robertson.
Arsenal fans hailed Tierney for his passionate display in Sunday’s 0-0 draw with Leeds United and his reaction to Nicolas Pepe’s red card at Elland Road.
Supporters loved seeing the full-back square up to Ezgjan Alioski at full-time after the Leeds forward’s ‘Oscar-worthy’ reaction to a brush of heads from Pepe, which led to the Gunners ace being sent off.
He also appeared to take umbrage with teammate Granit Xhaka for putting his arm around the Whites ace after the game, which also pleased Arsenal legend Martin Keown.
“The way Kieran Tierney was trying to have a word with Alioski at full-time – the player he saw as the protagonist in Pepe’s sending off – showed impressive fighting spirit,” the Invincible told the Daily Mail.
“Tierney typified that spirit in the game itself, too. He bombs forward, he puts in those extra yards for his team.
