“Hello Freddie, hello Thierry,” Bukayo Saka joked after the Manchester United game
The 21-year-old talisman of coach Mikel Arteta shone again. Bukayo Saka once again showed his extravagance as he was among the scorers in the winning duel with Manchester United, once again. He has done it three times in a row now, putting him alongside players like Freddie Ljungberg and Thierry Henry.
The 21-year-old talisman of coach Mikel Arteta shone again. Bukayo Saka once again showed his extravagance as he was among the scorers in the winning duel with Manchester United, once again. He has done it three times in a row, putting him alongside players like Freddie Ljungberg and Thierry Henry.
Is there any guide to becoming a club legend? Probably not, but the “lad” from west London is well on his way to becoming one. He has been playing for Arsenal since early childhood and is already among the world’s best among adults.
Saka played a key role in the duel between two age-old rivals Arsenal and Manchester United. Throughout the 90 minutes, he regularly terrorised his national teammate Luke Shaw and to make matters worse, in the 53rd minute he spiced up his performance with a wonderful shot from outside the box.
Thanks to this goal, “Little Chilli”, as he is nicknamed in the Gunners’ squad, has joined the ranks of legends such as Freddie Ljungberg and Thierry Henry. Only these three players have scored in three consecutive games against the Red Devils.
“I’m glad I accepted the challenge. Hello Freddie, hello Thierry,” Saka said happily in the post-match interview.
Arsenal remain in top spot in the English Premier League, with a five-point cushion on reigning champions Manchester United. Moreover, coach Arteta’s charges have a home game against Everton to play.
Arsenal and the league title are becoming more and more common on the islands. The North London team’s best start to the season, they have never scored more points in 19 rounds than now (50).
