Garth Crooks raves about Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney

Popular football pundit Garth Crooks has showered praise on Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney and has picked him in his Premier League Team of the week for BBC Sport.

The 23-year-old scored the opening goal for the Gunners and produced a superb performance against the Baggies as Arsenal won 4-0.

In fact, Tierney – who joined Arsenal from Celtic for a fee in the region of £25m in 2019 – has been thoroughly consistent with his performances, and Crooks has rightly pointed out that he ‘has been one of the few shining lights’ for Arsenal this season.
