Speaking on the Premier League’s YouTube channel, Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi has been building his so-called ‘ultimate teammate’.
Guehi had to build a ‘dream player’ made of of six attributes from Premier League players.
For example, Guehi chose Tariq Lamptey’s pace for this ‘ultimate teammate’ and when it came to dribbling he knew exactly who he was picking.
Indeed, Guehi chose his Palace teammate and reported Liverpool target, Wilfried Zaha as the best dribbler in the league, stating that he’s a player who is really hard to stop.
Zaha’s tough to stop
Guehi spoke about Zaha’s dribbling ability.
“I’m going to pick Wilf. I think you have to. We’ve seen it week-in, week-out playing in the Prem, his skills, his ability to beat a man.
“How is it training against him?” Guehi was asked.
“It’s hard yeah, it makes you a better player of course, when you come up against players like that every single day you learn from what they do you try to adapt but sometimes it’s really hard to stop because they’re really top players.”
Imagine him in training
It’s dazzling enough to watch Wilfried Zaha in Premier League action, but can you imagine what it’s like to train against him.
In training, the stakes are so much lower and Zaha will probably be much cheekier with his tricks.
The winger has so much flair and we can only begin to imagine the type of things he tries – and probably pulls off, in training.
Guehi will know better than most just how talented Zaha is, and the fact that he says he’s a ‘really top’ player tells you all you need to know.
