Speaking on the Sky Sports Football YouTube channel, Rob Holding has been waxing-lyrical about Emile Smith Rowe.

The defender was asked to speak a little bit about Smith Rowe, and he had nothing but good things to say about the midfielder.

Holding says that Smith Rowe is a fantastic player and that he absolutely loves to watch him work.

What’s been said?

Holding was full of praise for Smith Rowe.

“What a player like, what a player,” Holding said.

“The way he moves with the ball, he’s just so nice to watch, it’s so easy on the eye, he just flows, he just flows so nicely.”

Beautiful to watch

Holding is absolutely right about Smith Rowe, he’s a joy to watch when he’s in full flow.

The midfielder is just brilliant at carrying the ball, and as Holding says, he just moves so naturally when he’s dribbling.

He almost has a bit of Eden Hazard about him in the way he beats a man, and that makes him absolutely joyous to watch.

We can only hope that Smith Rowe continues to improve and develop because it looks as though Arsenal and England have yet another gem on their hands here.
