Saliba continues to show why he's one of the world's best

William is just doing William things, isn't he?

The Frenchman, aside from Man of the Match Raya, was the standout performer and by some distance at Villa Park.

His last-ditch tackle late in the game that saw him hunt down Jacob Ramsey like a Lion that hunts its prey in the Sahara was otherworldly.

Starting from a good 15-20 yards behind, Saliba put the jets on and reeled in Ramsey before making a sensational block to keep Arsenal's clean sheet intact.

His celebration afterward was pure fire, too.
