Former Super Eagles head coach Sunday Oliseh has named Newcastle United's Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon as the two most underrated players in the Premier League this season.

The duo were on the scoresheet as the Magpies defeated Arsenal 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium in the first leg of the semifinals of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday, December 7.

Reacting to the incredible display from Eddie Howe's side on X (formerly Twitter), the former Borussia Dortmund midfielder praised Isak and Gordon as the most exciting duo in the Premier League.

“Sad day for Arsenal fans losing out to Newcastle, but I strongly feel these two players, Isak and Gordon of Newcastle, are arguably the most exciting duo and slightly most underrated players of the Premier League this season.

“Just love the variety they bring each game, and Isak is currently my favorite player of the Premier League. What a bunch of talent!!”

Mikel Arteta's side will travel to St James' Park in February for the second leg of the semifinal encounter.
