‘Get Him In The First Team Now’ ‘This Kid Is Going Places’ – Arsenal Fans Excited After 17 Year Old Scores Another Stunner

Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka is certainly doing all he can to convince manager Unai Emery that he deserves a chance in the first team.

The 17-year-old scored twice as the Gunners beat Tottenham 5-2 in the FA Youth Cup last night. As well as scoring a penalty, he hit this excellent strike to seal victory in injury time:


It follows another great goal he scored in the Checkatrade Trophy earlier this season. Fans have been very impressed with Saka and are keen for him to be afforded more game time at senior level:

Since making his first team debut against Vorskla in the Europa League back in November, the England Under 19 international has also been given his first start (in the 1-0 win over Qarabag) as well as first appearances in the Premier League and FA Cup.

There’s no doubt that Saka is very much in Emery’s thoughts, but it will be interesting to see whether he can actually break into the senior side between now and the end of the season.
