Myles Lewis-Skelly must be ‘MORE aggressive’, claims Nigel Winterburn – as legendary Arsenal full back outlines how far he can go

Nigel Winterburn has called Arsenal Starlet Myles Lewis -S -SKILY to be aggressive – and is urging Thomas Tuchel to consider him for a berth in England.

The Gunners -legend, who won three league titles with Arsenal in the 1980s and 90s, saw the young person developing over the years in the Hale End Academy of the club.

He is not surprised to see that the talent born in Islington becomes a familiar member of the team of Mikel Arteta, but thinks he has much to learn about the left -wing position he manned in his own career.

Mail Sport caught Winterburn in front of Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Wolves on Saturday, where Lewis-Skelly was sent controversially for a cynical error on Matt Doherty.

The Fall – Out of that flashpoint has been explosive – and unfortunately threatening for referee Michael Oliver and his family – where Arsenal won a profession against a call that manager Mikel Arteta ‘absolutely smoking’.

“I have to say, his development has been sensational,” said Winterburn Mail Sport via William Hill Vegas.

‘He now asks Mikel Arteta’s question: Do you dare to omit the team? Because his versions have been so good.

‘I would like to see that he is more aggressive in that full-back role that defends, in particular the opposition team, so that they push to areas where he wants them to go or the team wants them to go or what they have worked on training.

‘On the ball he protects the ball really well, you can see that midfield role, he is a good mover with the ball, that has never been doubt in my mind.

‘I have seen Myles come through the youth system while I did some co-commentary for Arsenal. He was initially a midfield player, but under Mikel Arteta he has been converted into that left back role.

“I think he has even become physically stronger. The Premier League is no longer physical, but the physical side to protect the ball, it is easily able to do that

‘I can just see him progress and become stronger and stronger in terms of that position, because let’s be honest, he didn’t play much in that position.

‘He should just get so much stronger in that position, in terms of his understanding of the role, almost dictate to your teammates where you want them to be, the areas where you want to push the opposition, but you can see that he Does not play with fear, as young players should not. ‘

Winterburn knows what he is talking about. He was no stranger to a crispy tackle and was a support pillar in Arsenal for 13 years, won 11 trophies and learn among iconic long -term managers in George Graham and Arsene Wenger. He was also the first Arsenal player to be sent in the Premier League, two yellow cards that met Liverpool in January 1993.

One of his most famous games was Arsenal’s 2-0 win over Anfield in May 1989 to achieve the first division title on the last day of the season.

Arsenal went a victory with two goals to steal the crown from under the noses of Liverpool and produced a 91st minute winner. The current crop hopes for similar fortune when they travel to Merseyside on 10 May in the last part of this campaign.

Injuries do their best to stop the gunners. The straight red card from Lewis-Skelly and three game suspension threatened to add a further problem, but Arsenal has since won their attraction.

Jamie Redknapp said that the young person’s fault on Doherty was a ‘amber’, while Var Darren England Oliver’s on-Field Call confirmed as ‘serious false play’.

There was a broad protest because the challenge on the edge of Wolves and Arsenal’s own box spoke. As it looks now, he is excluded from the Premier League Clahses of Arsenal with Manchester City and Leicester City, as well as the second stage of their semi -final of Carabao Cup against Newcastle.

It is a learning curve for Lewis-Skelly, but Winterburn believes that this young man can go directly to the top and have an English call in his sights.

“It would not surprise me if he was selected to fall into one of the English squadrons, even if he didn’t play, just to look,” he said.

‘He is modern, he is incredibly suitable for that role, because he can protect the ball, he can pass, he can move the ball if you want, he can go outside and inside.

‘Especially at Arsenal he plays that reverse role, but if he has to go from outside and also occasionally overlap, there is no doubt that he can do that too. The way he controls the ball is incredible.

“He has not abandoned anyone and I propose that he may have surprised a few people, although I will say he didn’t surprise me because I knew where he was in.

“He probably pushed the bar a little higher than even what I expected, but I knew he was a talented boy.”
