Every time the ball graces his feet, he crafts moments of magic, undoubtedly etching his name in EPL history.
Manchester City star Bernardo Silva recently disclosed the Arsenal player who left a lasting impression on him during their recent match.
Arsenal’s resounding 6-0 triumph over Sheffield United at Bramall Lane is poised to be remembered as one of their smoother outings this season.
The ease of the victory allowed Mikel Arteta to rest Bukayo Saka at halftime, a testament to their dominance.
The 22-year-old Saka made a significant impact, providing two assists as Arsenal surged to a 5-0 lead within the first 45 minutes.
Jamie Carragher lauded Declan Rice’s passing prowess during the match, highlighting the team’s collective brilliance.
Freddie Ljungberg, praising Saka’s contributions, criticized Sheffield United for leaving the speedster ‘alone’ on the right channel.
Ljungberg, a Highbury hero, drew parallels between Saka’s career trajectory and that of his England teammate Phil Foden.
Notably, Saka has accumulated over 2000 minutes since their teenage debuts, showcasing his substantial role at Arsenal.
Ljungberg, who witnessed Saka’s development in the Arsenal academy during his tenure there, emphasized the exceptional tactical acumen and pace possessed by the young talent.
Reflecting on Saka’s role in Arsenal’s second goal, Ljungberg noted his ability to exploit spaces with incredible speed and a sharp mind, leaving opponents with minimal chances to contain him.
Acknowledging the contrasting game time in their careers, Ljungberg highlighted the difference between Saka and Foden.
While both players exhibit immense potential, Saka has accumulated more minutes on the field, contributing significantly to Arsenal’s performances.
As Phil Foden continues to excel in his football journey, and Bukayo Saka maintains his impressive form, England finds itself blessed with genuine attacking talent leading up to Euro 2024.
Saka’s tactical prowess, electrifying speed, and football intelligence have not only impressed his peers but also established him as a key figure for Arsenal and a rising star for the national team.
