Needs that workhorse Saka body that never gets injured even when being overplayed

Whenever I see a closeup on him next to someone else I always think “damn this guy is huge”, but then the camera zooms out and I realize he’s got quite the large head.

Looks like he has a lot of talent on the ball, very calm and accurate and just looks like a natural handling the ball. Was the same in the minutes he got against that german farmer team in pre season
Country: Iceland
This guy showed confidence and got involved right from the start of his cameo. Think this his how everyone want young player to respond but with Arteta you never know.
Player:Saliba
Huge lol? He looks about 5'6

Yeah that’s what I mean.
His head makes him an optical illusion.

I thought he was excellent. I wouldn't have been surprised if ESR put in that sort of performance. He glides on the ball and has poise. A more physical Rosicky?

Bless him, so cute. They weren't afraid to play it to him and we kept a clean sheet

He is more Similar to Wilshere than Mozart

It’s not their fault they’re injured? Be mad at our recruitment. Same thing could happen to Nwaneri.
He had a touch, or more specifically a carry and dribble where he looked like he’d lose possession, and then nipped the ball away from the defender and passed it on to someone else.
My brain immediately said “Wilshere!”
Good thing and a bad thing. I can see why Arteta might be possibly hesitant to play him more in senior football. He plays a very “tackleable” style of football and he’s gonna be on the end of a few tough challenges if his style stays that way
But he looked good

Yeah, Wilshere's the closest comparison. He's not quite as swashbuckling (not as much as Lewis-Skelly anyway!) but there's definitely an aggression about the way he uses his ability. Nice clean strike too, needs to show it.
Wilshere's injuries came from some of his reckless diving tackles trying to be Steven Gerrard. Plus being overplayed at 19. I think Nwaneri plays a bit like Wilshere and Joe Cole, maybe not as flashy as Cole, but his build reminds me more of Cole.

I would start him next game on the left

I’m all for playing youth and giving them experience but that’s just taking the piss. He should get cameos in games we’re comfortably ahead but that’s it.

I've always felt he was similar to Trae Coyle in terms of technical quality.
Damn I already forgot about Coyle lol. Dude was built like a grown man at 15. Just too many injuries, excellent first touch. Think Nwaneri is a bit more agile and has better vision. I honestly think Nwaneri's vision is underrated same with Skelly.
