Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder seemed to be impressed with Wilfried Zaha’s performance against his side on Saturday.
Zaha was dangerous as always but failed to inspire the Eagles to find the net, with the visitors snatching a slender victory after Vicente Guaita’s own goal.
Wilder feels that Zaha is one of the best wingers in the Premier League and is really difficult to come up against.
As quoted on Football London, Wilder was speaking about Zaha’s battle with George Baldock. He said:
The experience that George Baldock has had, up against arguably the best winger in the division who is valued at £90milion.
He gets booked after ten minutes and he has to deal with that, no easy way out, he was never coming off as far as I was concerned, and he had to find a way of dealing with that difficult opponent on a booking.

Zaha is often termed as the best winger outside the top six in the Premier League.
However, Wilder has taken it up a notch and feels that he could be the best winger in the entire competition.
The likes of Mohamed Salah and Raheem Sterling may have something to say about that. The 27-year-old has four goals and three assists in the league this season, which is a considerable way behind Sterling with 11 and Salah with 14.
However, he was the star man on the Selhurst Park pitch against the Blades, finding three key passes, more than anyone else in the match (WhoScored).
