Bukayo Saka enhanced his burgeoning reputation with another superb display in Arsenal’s Champions League win over PSG but it wasn’t just his attacking qualities that caught the eye.
Wearing the captain’s armband in the absence of Martin Odegaard, Saka tormented Nuno Mendes and capped another authoritative performance with his second goal, albeit slightly fortuitously, from a free-kick which evaded everybody and foxed goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.
In the second half, Arsenal were largely on the backfoot at PSG attempted to overturn a two-goal defefict.
Saka was forced into a more defensive role to help assist makeshift right-back Riccardo Calafiori who had been asked to swap positions as a result of an injury scare that forced Jurrien Timber to be substituted at the break.
Discipline and diligence have long considered qualities that make Saka such an effective, all-round team player.
