A fan has ranked all the full-backs in the Premier League into tiers and it has got people talking.
The full-back positions have somewhat been reinvented in the last few years, with the likes of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Joao Cancelo often seen playing more centrally when their team has the ball.
Now, a fan has ranked all the Premier League full-backs into tiers, the tiers are S, A, B+, B-, C, D and E. With the S meaning ‘superb’ or ‘super’.
The fan only picked three players for the S tier, in the shapes of Alexander-Arnold, Zinchenko and Kyle Walker.

Andy Robertson, who is often regarded as the best left-back in the Premier League is ranked in B+.

Whilst Sergio Reguilon, Matty Cash and Tino Livramento were ranked in tier C.

Serge Aurier, Ivan Perisic and Emmerson Royal were included in tier D.
The likes of Nathaniel Clyne, Javi Manquillo, Matt Doherty and Aaron Cresswell are ranked in tier E.
