Gary Lineker in awe of Arsenal star Jurrien Timber
Gary Lineker has expressed huge admiration for Arsenal’s Jurrien Timber, calling him a truly exceptional footballer. The former England striker believes Arsenal are strong contenders for the Premier League title after their tenth matchday.
The Gunners extended their winning run with a 2-0 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor, securing their fourth consecutive Premier League clean sheet. Their defensive solidity under Mikel Arteta has made it difficult for opponents to even come close.
While Gabriel Magalhaes played a key role in the win, it was Timber who truly impressed Lineker. The pundit spoke about Arsenal’s impressive squad depth during his podcast appearance.
“They’ve got incredible depth at the moment. But Jurrien Timber, I think he’s a truly exceptional footballer,” Gary Lineker said on The Rest Is Football podcast.
Gary Neville has also previously described Timber as one of the world’s best in his position — an opinion Lineker seems to share. Timber’s performances for both club and country have been outstanding, particularly in the right-back role crafted for him by Arteta.
Summary
Gary Lineker praised Arsenal’s Jurrien Timber as a truly exceptional talent, highlighting his influence in a defensively dominant team under Mikel Arteta.
