Bukayo Saka can’t stop breaking and setting records in the Premier League this season, and the attacker just set another one against Leicester City.
This season has been a brilliant one for the Euro 2024 finalist, and his form could lead Arsenal to the title.
The Gunners have relied heavily on him for assists, and he hasn’t disappointed. But in the game against Leicester, he delivered an even more outstanding performance.
Saka was Arsenal’s captain for the day, and he led by example, unsettling the Foxes and helping grind out the result.
Arsenal found themselves in trouble at 2-2, but they continued to press their visitors in search of the winning goal, with Saka being one of their most active players.
Sky Sports reports that he completed 8+ take-ons and created 8+ chances, making him the first Premier League player to achieve those stats in a single game this decade.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Saka is our star boy for a reason, and he continues to be very reliable in this campaign.
The attacker will have a major impact on our success this season and we need to do all we can to ensure that he stays fit and avoids suspension as well.

I captained Havertz not saka but non-saka fantasy football owners are going mental right now because saka picked up bonus points for chances created and dribbles. It’s funny, sets a record and everyone is up in arms because “he had a bad game.”
If Saka played for CIty or Liverpool you would not see this type of reaction or downplaying of Saka’s consistency.
In the absence of Odegaard,we have largely been depending on the Starboy to create chances. Could have had assists if the finishing was better(or if it wasn’t for Leicester’s Gk being exceptional tonight).
Shout out to Havertz who has been doing the unselfish work of holding the width on the right during those moments when Saka drifts inward to occupy the spaces Odegaard usually occupies.
spot on
