Bukayo Saka: Return Of The Sak

[2 White Thighs]

Maybe it's speculative but I think Mikel might have brought on Saka so Nwaneri has time to gel with him on that left hand side.

Or maybe I'm just desperate to decrease the chance of seeing that infamous midfield trio we started with against Bournemouth.

@Tir Na Nog remember that quote from Rafa Benitez that he was asked more tactical questions in his first interview in Italy than his whole career in England?

Saka is more respected outside of England than within.

Mental.

Awww, my heart

Saka speaks so eloquently. There was not a single 'ummm' or other filler word in there

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

I feel sorry for him atm.

I hated how the team stop creating space for themselves when Saka is doubled. Really insane just nobody trying to create space for a pass they all standing in box waiting for him to cross.

No surprise Italian journalists rate him so highly they'll praise inter about the job they did to stop saka

Totally agree. He speaks great.....but there were 5 'ummm's in there

Let's face it, we all do it

Fantastic journo - player exchange tho. He deserves the kudos tbf

You went back and watched it and counted didn't you!

Was hindered a lot this last game.

Difference in cultures, Italian media are more clued up and upfront due to how tumultuous their past has been with this stuff.

The British are very much in denial and are obsessed with marginalising his Euro ordeal to a few bad eggs, so they will never address how Saka has managed to kick on until years later.

 

[Thrice]

It's impossible to not like Saka. Not just because of his talent. He's such a likeable person off and on the pitch. Always down to earth, never at any moment shows a bad attitude. A true role model.
Easily my favourite Arsenal player right now. Hope he finishes his career here and becomes a club legend.

 

[Sniper Mik]

Expected him to combine a lot more with White. For some reason White barely overlapped, and on the few occasions he did, Saka ignored him.

White was awful, from passing to helping with overlaps. Waiting for Calafiori to come back so Timber can move to RB

Very respectful way to ask such a question as well, could easily have gone off into bragging about the win etc. but kept it on the player and his mental recovery from adversity, classy from the journo.

I'm pleased for Nuno. Our issue is that assists only count if someone scores- which we don't do nearly enough.
