TheTribuna asked British journalists and experts which of the Ukrainian legionnaires is having the best season compared to expectations. This was the answer of The Guardian journalist Nick Ames.
Ilya Zabarny- Ilya Zabarnyi (8.5/10) has adapted to the Premier League with ease and has established himself as possibly the best young centre-back in the division. His future at the highest level looks quite certain. Vitaliy Mykolenko (8/10) continues to improve. He is an important part of Everton and a beacon of stability in a team mired in uncertainty.
Oleksandr Zinchenko (7/10) is less effective than in his first season at Arsenal, but is still important to the title challenge. The team performs best when he is fit. Yegor Yarmolyuk (7/10) has made a breakthrough at Brentford and looks set to be a key player for the team in the coming seasons. Mykhailo Mudryk (6.5/10) is still struggling to find the right rhythm and consistency, but his play is starting to look promising. He looks calmer and more confident and has made a big contribution to Chelsea's progress," the journalist said.
