Ben White is number five.
The English international has done exceptionally well in adjusting to his new role in the Arsenal team, which was assigned to him by Mikel Arteta. He was previously a central defender but is now almost exclusively used at right back for the Gunners. The 25-year-old has delivered excellent performances in that position for the North Londoners, both offensively and defensively.
Joao Cancelo, number four.
Joao Cancelo's decline in form has become obvious, which is why he isn't ranked first. The talented Portuguese international can play both left and right wing for Manchester City. His outstanding offensive contribution to Man City's play is one of the factors that distinguishes him from other full-backs.
3, Oleksandr Zinchenko
Oleksandr Zinchenko has clearly been one of Arsenal's best signings this season. The Ukrainian International has done wonders for the Arsenal team, contributing significantly to their offensive play. The 26-year-old may not have had many assists this season, but he has always been a key orchestrator of Arsenal's attacks in games. Zinchenko's deserves to be third on this list.
Andrew Robertson, number two.
This season, the Scottish International is the only Premier League full-back with five assists.
A few injuries have kept him out of action for Liverpool, but when he does play, we can clearly see his impact on the team's performance. He has been an outstanding defensive and offensive player this season.
1. Kieran Trippier.
Kieran Trippier is clearly one of the Premier League's most underappreciated players at the moment. This season, the English International has been very consistent for Newcastle United in the competition. His excellent defensive and offensive play has helped Newcastle United to be a top team in the competition this season. He has four Premier League assists so far, which is the second-most for a full-back. At the moment, I believe there is no better full-back in the league than the English International.

Mikel Arteta has hinted that Arsenal are looking for more players and has provided an update on the potential acquisition of Gabriel Jesus.
Arsenal are currently top of the Premier League with a 3-2 victory over rivals Manchester United.
The win put the Gunners in first place, five points ahead of Man City.
The Gunners are without one of their most important players since the World Cup, with Jesus out with a serious knee injury.
The striker was key to Arsenal's success early in the season but is expected to be out for a few months. Eddy Nketiah filled in for the Brazilian and was in great form himself.
Arteta said at a press conference Wednesday that he hopes Jesus will recover in "weeks, not months."
"I don't know him. He'll be here next week. It's totally surreal," Arteta told reporters. "He pushes and pushes everyone to the limit. Hopefully it will be weeks instead of months."
Arsenal have signed two new players this month as Leandro Trossar and Jakub Kiwiol signed a combined deal worth around £48m.
The Gunners are looking for recruits and are connected to Ivan Fresneda. It is also possible to sign a new midfielder.
Arteta has admitted to "seeing" any opportunity that piques his interest. “If there is anything else we can improve, we will look into it,” added Arteta.
On Arsenal's need for a midfielder:
“Ideally we would like to have a little more coverage in the midfield if possible, but obviously it is very complicated in this market.
"But as I always say, the most important thing is to get the performance and time on the pitch we need with the players who are already very good today.
"I think he's a player who is ready to make something happen (together with Trossard)."
About Kiwior:
“Well, he gives us more cover. Jakub is a versatile player who can take on many different roles and strengthen the team. ”
Arteta has been under scrutiny for his touchline antics in recent weeks, admitting he's "trying to find the right balance."
"I leave the game to the referee and let him handle it. I sometimes look at myself in the mirror and try to find the right balance.
"I love games, I'm very passionate about them, and that's how I live my game."
