Arsenal

He’s unstoppable”: David Beckham believes Mikel Arteta has turned Arsenal flop to a better player than Lamine Yamal and Foden

Arsenal has had a strong beginning to the season, sitting just one point behind Liverpool at the top of the standings.

 

Mikel Arteta’s team is hoping for success in their quest to win the Premier League, aiming for a breakthrough after two commendable seasons.

 

However, the last two international breaks have caused some injury concerns for the Gunners.

 

Captain Martin Odegaard sustained an ankle injury during the first international break.

 

The latest international window has raised more worries, with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli facing injury issues.

 

David Beckham has expressed his admiration for Saka’s ability to take on defenders.

 

He remarked, “The game has evolved so much. I often find myself thinking players should just get it out to the wing and cross it. That’s what I’m shouting at the TV,” Beckham noted.

 

“Sometimes it’s obvious that’s what’s needed. My coach used to tell me to stay wide and eventually the chance would come. I was never one to run at defenders like Bukayo does.”

 

Arsenal could face challenges without Bukayo Saka.

 

The England international returned to London Colney with a suspected injury after a loss to Greece, following an impressive start to the season where he has scored three goals and provided ten assists in ten matches.

 

Saka excels at taking on defenders, averaging 4.63 progressive carries per 90 minutes.

 

Although Arsenal might have Raheem Sterling available, losing Saka would be a major blow to Arteta’s attacking options.
