O’Hara said about Saka on talkSPORT (6:26 pm, February 17, 2024): “How many times have we said take Saka off when the game is won? Do you know what I mean? 

“You want to keep him fit, you have got a lot of games coming, you are fighting for the title. Today the game was over, the game was done, he put in another top performance, get him off, protect him.”

The pundit added: “I feel like Saka this season, people were starting to say, he needed to do more, he got found out, last few weeks he has been brilliant, I feel like he is starting to get back to his best.

“What he is doing now is he is adding more to his game, he is picking the ball with his right foot and taking shots with his weaker foot because a lot of times, I have been watching him, it was come inside come inside and then bend it into the top corner, and now teams are actually making him go on the outside, and he is showing people that he has got a weaker foot.”

My View: Bukayo Saka a big threat for Arsenal

In my opinion, Bukayo Saka is one of the best players in the Premier League and is a big figure for Arsenal.

For Arsenal to win the Premier League and perhaps even the UEFA Champions League this season, I think that Saka will have to continue to bang in the goals and create chances for his teammates.

Saka has emerged as an important source of goals for Arsenal. The 22-year-old winger has scored 12 goals and given seven assists in 24 Premier League games and has scored three

goals and provided four assists in five UEFA Champions League matches this season.

The England international winger, who is world class according to one pundit, scored 14 goals and gave 11 assists in 37 Premier League starts for the Gunners last season.
