Football enthusiasts recalled Manchester City’s Champions League final triumph against Inter Milan, where former Arsenal forward Thierry Henry was asked if he would take on Kyle Walker in his prime.

Grealish inquired: “Off the left, do you reckon you’d take him on seriously?” To which Henry responded: “In my prime? All day!”

Aina’s performance against Walker serves as evidence that Henry, one of the best forwards of his era, could indeed outmaneuver a defender like Walker.
