Saka comments on Arsenal's upturn in form

Arsenal star Bukayo Saka has been a revelation of late and has shared his thoughts on his side’s resurgence in the Premier League.

Bukayo Saka has been one of the shining lights for Arsenal as they build up a winning streak in the Premier League.

The Gunners ended a seven-game winless run in the league against Chelsea and have now recorded back to back wins since then.

Bukayo Saka scored in the Gunners’ 3-1 victory over Chelsea and has also been a key part of their winning run so far.

The 19-year-old has replaced Willian on the right flank for Mikel Arteta and has put up a string of impressive performances.

Saka has four goal contributions from his last three games and his most recent of them came against West Brom where he slotted home Arsenal’s second goal in a brilliant team move.

Bukayo Saka's last 6 starts from the right flank:

Vs Wolves (A) – ⚽
Vs Leicester (H) – 🅰️
Vs Liverpool (Shield) – 🅰️
Vs Chelsea (H) – ⚽
Vs Brighton (A) – 🅰️
Vs West Brom (A) – ⚽

Take a bow, @BukayoSaka87 👏

The Gunners eventually won the game 4-0 and extended their winning run in the Premier League to three games.

The game was played under intense conditions in the snow and the youngster spoke on playing in that situation while adding on his side’s improved performance of late.

“Wow, it was so cold, the ice was getting under my boots!” Saka told the club’s website. “My boots were frozen, I felt like I was ice skating at times, it was good that we got through it and we managed to get the win in the end.

“I felt we started the game well, we created so many chances, we had so many crosses, so many shots, more than we normally do and it could even have been more than 4-0. We’re really happy with this performance, we just want to build on it.”

Saka was pleased with the build-up that led to his goal and insists the Gunners want to be more fluid in their game on an occasional basis.

He added: “[For my goal] Emile saw me around the corner and played it first time and then I went to Lacazette and Emile made the third-man run and luckily Emile saw me in the middle of the open goal. It was great goal from all of us, one-touch play and this is the football that we love to play.”
