Congrats to Hydro then!
I'll still want a direct link to the quote as I can't find it myself, everyone knows you're pals.

Credit where credit is due. Some stellar detective work there.

Anyway, this joke has gotten way out of hand here. I feel people are not laughing at it as much as I am.

Yeah, this still wasn't the argument. It was who discovered him, and I can't find the quote OnlyOne put.
Country: Iceland
I can't find the old reserves thread either otherwise, there would be tons of quotes from me arguing that Saka was bigger talent IMO than elite members' favorite Amaechi. There would be a lot of quotes of me saying "just because Saka don't have fancy dribble like Amaechi, he still can be a better player". Then there would be quotes of me saying ESR had some De Bruyne elements to his games, that is even before ESR talked about it himself in the interview. You can also see in Saka's older thread last season it was most of the time only me and Mutable against an army of doubters.
I probably could be a scout given my track record with Saka and ESR if I wanted to, but then again Arsenal has no scouts and isn't hiring at the moment so I will just continue searching for a job as an underpaid scientist.

The argument was when you came bragging here that you discovered Saka. That's what I'll believe when I see the proof. I haven't seen the direct link (even with trying to search it) yet so assume OnlyOne as your pal faked the quote.
I already stated that I know you have supported Arsenal youth here a lot and praised it. But in that case I still doubt that you only have praised the ones that are now flourishing, like you seemed to claim.

Interesting bit here from an interview with Arteta.
"Fans see how well Emile and Bukayo Saka are doing and want them in the team every week. How do you manage the expectation around them and nurture that?
I understand and I am the first one who wants to do that. But Bukayo is dong what he is doing because last year, in certain situations he was managed. And he was trained in certain positions and people will say 'why? He needs to stick with position'. No. He needs to get richer in his understanding of the game. And we need to really find. Why he cannot play on the right? 'No he's always on the left and he needs to play left back or left wing.' No. He can play as an attacking midfielder as well. And then we will see, the cohesion that he finds within the team, the position where he can be, a game winner, which he has the ability to do. Where is that position? Where are we missing a kind of player like him? And then try to fit him in. And then we can give him the games, we can give him the consistency in that position, and we have to find that. With Emile it's a little bit simpler towards his position. But as well, with the game time we have to manage that. The same with Gabi."

Poor poor game for such a talent. Playing a bit too much said it a while ago but we are kind of forced to play him as the bench is laughable
Look extremely tired. Not surprise he been playing non stop since start of season

Badly needs some rest. Sad state of affairs when our most expensive player can't even be trusted to start a few matches so that Saka can get his rest.
Needs a rest but still offers something. It's a sign of his quality that his poorer games are still better than anyone who might replace him. I just hope he stays fit.

There were certain guys that played 90 mins and did naff all tonight. Saka was one of them.
Defo needs a rest.
Maybe worth trying Martinelli on the right even though he’s never been good there.
