Arsenal have some of the best young players in the Premier League, and one of them is Bukayo Saka.
Bukayo Saka has been superb for Arsenal and England over the years and is one of the best young wingers in the world.
Saka plays consistently well and does not seem to get injured.
In fact, if the 22-year-old winger starts against Tottenham Hotspur at the Emirates Stadium in the North London derby on Sunday, then it will be his 86th successive appearance in the Premier League.
Paul Merson praise for Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka
And former Arsenal star and Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson is stunned at that record.
Merson said on Sky Sports News (1:42pm, September 23, 2023): “Phenomenal, that won’t be done again.
“In this day and age, where you are bringing players in and out of the team, you are resting them before big games.
“It just shows how important he is week in week out.
“Absolutely unbelievable.”
Bukayo Saka is a gem
Bukayo Saka is only 22 years of age at the moment, but it seems that the winger has been playing for ages.
It is almost like Saka is a veteran.
Saka’s consistency shows just how good he is.
Not many players who are in their early 20s are able to play well week in and week out.
You do not often see Saka have a bad game.
Even in matches when the winger is quiet, there are often moments when he looks very dangerous.
Opposition defences can never rest with Saka on the pitch.
Saka has made 140 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
The Arsenal winger has scored 33 goals and given 28 assists in those games.
