Arsenal’s Gabriel Martinelli has heaped praise on his teammate Bukayo Saka, calling him “one of the best players in the world” after Saka’s stellar performance in their recent Premier League victory over Southampton.
In a thrilling match at the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal secured a 3-1 win against Southampton, with Saka playing a pivotal role. The young England international not only scored Arsenal’s third goal but also provided crucial assists for Kai Havertz and Martinelli himself.
Martinelli did not hold back in his admiration for Saka, emphasizing his exceptional talent and importance to the team. “He’s unbelievable, and one of the best players in the world right now,” Martinelli said. “He’s a really nice guy as well, so we’re really happy to have him here as one of the captains”.
Saka’s performance against Southampton was nothing short of spectacular. After Southampton took a shock lead through Cameron Archer, Saka quickly turned the game around. His assists helped Arsenal regain control, and his goal sealed the victory, ensuring Arsenal maintained their unbeaten start to the season.
At just 23 years old, Saka has already made a significant impact in the Premier League. This season alone, he has accumulated three goals and seven assists, surpassing the legendary Robert Pires’ record of 41 assists for Arsenal. His ability to change the course of a game with his skill and vision has made him a key player for both Arsenal and the England national team.
With Saka in such fine form, Arsenal fans have every reason to be optimistic about the rest of the season. The Gunners are currently third in the Premier League, just one point behind early leaders Liverpool. As they prepare for their next match against Bournemouth after the internation break, the team will be looking to build on their strong start and continue their push for the title.
Gabriel Martinelli’s high praise for Bukayo Saka is well-deserved. Saka’s performances have been nothing short of world-class, and his contributions are crucial to Arsenal’s success. As the season progresses, fans will be eagerly watching to see what more this dynamic duo can achieve on the pitch.
