Really good first half and another fine assist. As for the second half, I think he made more errors than in all his previous appearances combined, which is very unlike Saka: he's usually so composed and mature in his decision-making.

He played a great deal lot of football in recent weeks, so it's not unlikely that those mistakes stem from fatigue.

The difference in physicality and intensity between the Premier League and Academy/Reserve level football cannot be scoffed at. It always takes time for a young player to get acclimatised to the higher physical demands of the Premier League.

Another brilliant assist but yes he was on the bench for a reason. He needs a bit of a rest because he has played a lot of football and has played a massive part in helping us pick up points.

his touch abandoned him 2nd half, leading to all those turnovers... it happens. 1st i've seen that from him.

mad props for another wc class cross.

He played 90 mins against Olympiakos and close to another 90 on Sunday due to Kola's injury. He did fine, his carelessness in the 2nd half was related to tiredness I imagine.

Again, I don't like seeing him played as an LB. Defensively he's weak, and his stats already show he's much more suited to being played further up front.

Arsenal are struggling to tie 18-year-old English winger Bukayo Saka down to a new contract with other Premier League clubs interested. (90min)


Is he asking for too much money or what?
