Stat merchant. Accumulating stats in France or Germany doesn't impress me. Havertz was a star in Germany, Sancho was the man in Dortmund. And Dembele has not been consistent enough for the past couple of seasons to put him above Saka.

So you dont care about stats or performances, nor talent, skillset etc or as you call it "aesthetics" etc
To alot of people demebele has been the best player in the europe since december and if he wins the cl with psg he will be in contention for the balon d'or. Thus, for saka to be better than him, you are essentially saying saka is infact the best player in the world. I dont know if anyone will agree with you. To be honest i dont even really care. You're the one who turned this convo into what it is. I just got a bit sensitive coz you called me a clown so here we are. Wasn't my intention with my original comment but hey, fanboys will be fanboys.
Fwiw i hope saka shows him up next week, OBVIOUSLY!

I'm the fanboy, but you're the one admitting you got sensitive. I just call out BS when I see it. So called fans always taking passive aggressive shots at Saka who has carried Arsenal since he was 18. I never even called him world class till this season, which means I have always fairly evaluated his strengths and weaknesses. Every foreign talent playing in worse leagues are always better than Saka, it's literally been the same narrative for years until they come to the EPL and look a shell of what they used to be in those leagues.

Sorry but you are completely wrong. Saka is world class, Dembele wouldn't put up the same numbers he does under Arteta. Maybe he could, 1 season max. purple patch hero.

Saka and Partey were so bad today by their standards.
The hope is that this was Partey’s drunk game and he sweats it out his system by Wednesday…

Invisible unfortunately. Still brought a few moments like when he almost scored a great goal with his right foot.
Let's call it an off day

Truly piss piss piss poor tonight. Mendes on a yellow quick, never threatened him. One good shot in the second half, but other than that very disappointing.
That miss especially was awful. Could've been 2-2 and our way back in.

Sure it wasn‘t a performance to remember, but this dude needs better support, he‘s playing with donkeys up front.

He's had better days but I can't fault him as much. Should have had 2 goals.

Terrible miss at the end but I thought he played well personally. He was the only player they where worried about.

Saka miss was bad but not as bad as the one on one with Bayern last season.
Saka being better than Ode,Martinelli and Leo isn't the flex some Arsenal fans think it is...

He does what he can, what he can gets him a goal even if double marked because that's how he rolls.
It's not his fault the rest of the attack is not up to par, and it's definitely not his fault the manager has lulled the fanbase into thinking the only way we can win is by having flawless games, a lot of fans seriously think every attempt is supposed to become a goal just because.

...and then He woke up sweating !!!
He needs more support but this games sums him up a bit so far in his career.
Brilliant player with no support, but the big moments he can’t carry the weight of the team solely on his back.
We owe it to him to give him some other forwards that can share the burden.

He was the only player that took it to them in the second half. Nearly bent in a worldie if not for a world class save from Donaruma.
Yes he missed the open goal, but he can walk away with his head held high.
He needs two or three other players at his level to help him up top otherwise we will fall at the same hurdle again and again

I honestly can't believe he missed that open goal but was one of his top performance
We wasting career he world class player and should have better attack around him

Excellent player but he's the minimum standard the team should have. PSG have like 5 Sakas.

For real. Saka is very good but even the very best need good supporting attackers and we don't have it.
