World Cup: He’s outstanding – Paul Merson names England’s most impressive player

Arsenal legend, Paul Merson, has named defender Harry Maguire as England’s most impressive player at the moment amid the ongoing 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

Merson said this ahead of England’s World Cup Final Group B fixture against Wales on Tuesday night.

He said the Manchester United captain has been outstanding for the Three Lions at the World Cup in Qatar.

In his latest Sky Sports column, Merson said, “The most impressive England player at the moment is Harry Maguire.

“I thought he was outstanding the other night. It takes a lot of bottles what he does. To turn up and go on that pitch with all of the pressure that’s on him and he never lets England down – I can’t talk highly enough of the bloke.

“I think if he didn’t play the other night, we would get beat by the USA. I take my hat off to him, fair play.

“It’s big pressure playing for England and it’s been even bigger pressure playing for England for Maguire in the last two games, and he’s never let anybody down.”
