Liverpool midfielder James Milner has named Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha as his most difficult Premier League opponent
The Premier League veteran is part of the Reds side who currently sit six points clear at the top of the table, as they look to secure their first ever Premier League title.
Milner has played eight times this season, adding to his 524 career appearances in the Premier League, he has previously come up against Barcelona man Lionel Messi, but has named Zaha as the toughest test that she has faced.
“I’ve been sent off for tackles on him twice. He’s a talent. Unpredictable," Milner said of Zaha (via the Guardian ).
"You see how difficult it is to deal with him when you’re watching him. And when you play against Zaha he’s tricky and very tough to face.”
Milner and Zaha are yet to face each other in the Premier League this season, with the first meeting between the two coming in November.
Zaha will go into that game having registered one assist so far this season, he also won the penalty that saw the Eagles half the deficit against Arsenal on Sunday in the 2-2 draw.
Zaha has made 187 appearances, scoring 32 goals and registering 35 assists.
