Arsenal star Kieran Tierney has seen his Premier League minutes this season disintegrate following the arrival of Oleksandr Zinchenko. The summer signing from Manchester City has made a hugely significant impact on the Gunners with his winning mentality and ability to satisfy Mikel Arteta's tactical needs a large factor in their title push.
A calf injury to Zinchenko saw him miss a month of action towards the latter end of 2022, but his influence since returning has not gone unnoticed. Playing as an inverted full-back, Zinchenko has been able to get forward on numerous occasions this season but only recently has he started contributing in front of goal.
In the Gunners' 3-2 victory over Aston Villa, Zinchenko grabbed his first Premier League goal with a superbly driven effort from the edge of the box. The following week he provided a crucial moment in the clash with Everton, picking out Bukayo Saka to break the deadlock in a tight game at Emirates Stadium.
