Brilliant genius Bukayo Saka is turning lucky ricochets into impudent finishes to win tricky European away games. Maybe it really is Arsenal's year.
Saka is turning ricochets into impudent finishes – maybe this really is Arsenal’s yearTwelve games, 11 wins. It’s a decent start to a season, isn’t it?and their artificial pitch, a combination that has thwarted many a European side in recent years.
There were legitimate reasons for Arsenal to be a smidge below their imperious best here, with Arteta making as many changes as he dare against a team that demanded and earned his respect while still paying due heed to the fact there are nine games to get through this month and not even this merry band of giddily excited young scamps can play in all of them.
Saka is in the zone right now, and playing the game with a kind of smiling serenity. Everything seems to be coming easy to the still absurdly young star boy, and he’s righteously enjoying the absolute shit out of it. His initial run bristled with menace, and the give and go with Sambi Lokonga looked straightforward but required pace and precision that a team with less confidence might not have mustered. Saka’s drive through the box to collect the return ball showed how he grows stronger as well as more skilful with every passing game.
