Man United Defender Reveals How He Will Stop Zaha

Manchester United defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka says, Crystal Palace forward, Wilfred Zaha won’t prove a challenge for him to mark in today’s Premier League clash at Old Trafford.

The youngster could line up against Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha on Saturday after an impressive start to life at Old Trafford following his £50m move this summer.

The 21-year-old showed no nerves in the 4-0 win over Chelsea and draw with Wolves and it’s easy to see why.

Wan-Bissaka told United Review: “I just like to play my game, play without fear, do what I’m capable of doing.

“Was I nervous before my debut? Nah. Me, I block it out. I know what nerves can do. Nerves keep you quiet. I’m just waiting for the game to start. I’m in the changing room, just waiting, thinking: ‘Can this game hurry up and start?’”

“The longer it takes, that’s when the nerves could come in, so I just want to get the waiting over and done with. I just want to get into the game, get the ball as much as possible. That stops the nerves.

“Then I like to get the tackles in, because I get a lot of confidence from tackles. The fans help as well, cheering them, so, after that, I want to get into the next one, then the next one. That helps.”
