Bukayo Saka: 2019/20 Performances

[Eaststander74]

I think he's accredited himself very well in both positions.

It's his attitude that's allowed him to do well at LB. He's not willing to make excuses and allowances to be crap there, so he applies himself 100%. You need players like him around so the other fvckwits on 50 times his wage can see how it's done.

I agree with this.

As if anyone would be tempted by man u? I get the other two especially Germany because they like to take young brit players but man u lol.

I know, such a pathetic club like Chelsea

Stay here where he'll get most of his opportunities as a back up LB, where most of the fans already see him as an LB or go to a team where he'll have more opportunity to play in his favoured position? If he is as smart as he is reputed to be, the choice should be kind of obvious.

Errrm.....We have nobody to play left wing. He will without question get plenty of time here in his favoured position, especially next season when Aubameyang isn’t here. More importantly, his manager acknowledges he’s not a left back.

What reports? Sauce...

 

[Preacher]

This is textbook case of his agent using the press to drum the interest and pressure us. Nothing to see here.

 

[Tourbillion]

Football can **** off.

 

[Get These Hands]

Really not a good sign if he's holding the club to ransom at the age of 18 during his first season in the first team. Sets a really bad precedent.

I'm not sure it's something that doesn't happen elsewhere, or it's not like Saka is doing a van Persie/Sanchez on us. He deserves much bigger wages than 3,000 / week, that's for sure.

Agree. I’m intrigued by the possibility of seeing Saka-Martinelli-Pepe as a young, dynamic, if risky, front line.

It’s a lot of pressure to put on two teenagers and a guy who’s still acclimating to the league, so I don’t know if we can afford to expect them to be our go to attack. But I at least want them to get a chance together.

On Telegraph link within that twitter post it states "Arsenal at risk of having Bukayo Saka run down his contract with no breakthrough yet on extension talks with 18-year-old |
@mcgrathmike"

Seems like much ado about nothing to me.

Secure your bag young man. Bend Stan over.

Not worried. He will sign. He is smart and has his head screwed on.

****, guess he's off then.

The kid is not holding anyone ransom lol. This is a business. He has shown potential to be a beast, now he has to make sure he is getting paid accordingly. Some of y'all still living in the 1900s.

One of the top youngsters in the league, one of our more consistent performers and versatile. It stands to reason that him and his agent want a deal that reflects the aforementioned.

If he doesn't get himself 40k plus then he's messed up. The club should just pay it to either secure his future or protect his value.

 

[HaffBR]

Just pay it. Plus I would like to Saka on the RW providing Pepe some competition. Arsenal is probably getting Grealish (LW) this summer and Pepe is looking like a bit of flop. Nelson isn't good as Saka imo, and Martinelli's abilities make him more suited to the CF position or as LF.

Probably getting Grealish??! Nope.

Pay Saka what he wants as he's already a Premier League level LB and his best position is on the left wing! Saka is under hyped as I reckon he'd be quoted at 70m if he played for a more flashy team. Ryan Sessegnon was being quoted at 75m after doing less in The Championship!

Let's tie him up long term. He should be on Guendouzi money at least.

Saka is gold, he is PL level LB, LW and RW. But Grealish is for now the next level, he is playing like some football star, being the third most rated player in the EPL playing for that miserable team of Aston Villa.

The future imo is

Grealish ----- Martinelli ----- Saka
