Impact White didn't have much work to do on defense and was given plenty of space to go up the field and support the offense. That led to him assisting both of his side's goals with perfect crosses. The right-back, who was already coming off scoring on the previous match, is not exactly seen as a two-way stud and performances like this one should be seen more like a bonus for those who pick him for fantasy teams.

Impact White continues to be a defensively-minded right-back with little offensive upside. With a variety of injuries elsewhere in the backline White has ended up taking a huge role in the first team for the third season in a row. He hasn't gotten forward as often as he did in 2022/23, but White still contributes with some solid defensive volume and goes the full 90 more often than not.

Impact White has earned a role in every single match, including a start at right-back against Manchester United. The defender has made himself one of the most invaluable pieces of the starting XI and is set to continue his major role as long as he stays fit and available.

Adapts to new role this season White kept nine clean sheets, scored two goals and recorded five assists in 38 Premier League appearances (36 starts) mostly at right-back in this campaign.

Impact White was impressive last year as a center-back alongside Gabriel in his debut season with Arsenal, but he shifted over to right-back in his sophomore campaign to accommodate William Saliba in the XI and still remained effective in the new position as he began directly contributing to goals for the first time in his Premier League career. The 25-year-old seems likely to continue as the club's primary right-back heading into next season.
