Bukayo Saka has made a simple promise ahead of Arsenal's Premier League clash against Manchester United on Wednesday.
The England international delivered a stunning performance against West Ham on Saturday, contributing a goal and two assists at the London Stadium. Riding high on an impressive streak this season, with seven goals and 11 assists across all competitions, Saka remains hungry for more.
Determined not to rest on his laurels, he's pledged to maintain this blistering pace. After the match against the Hammers, Saka reflected: "I'm happy so far but you know, I have to keep going. I can't get complacent. It's a long season and we're only in November so, I need to continue like this."
Arsenal, fresh from cementing another Premier League victory, are looking forward to extending their winning run, buoyed by back-to-back wins following a brief downturn in form. Saka opened up on the squad's confidence ahead of the encounter with Manchester United, reports the Mirror.
"It was a lot of fun, a lot of goals and we enjoyed it," Saka said, beaming with satisfaction. "We've been playing like that in the last few games, scoring a lot of goals. We're in good form, confident, and we're enjoying our football.
“We’ve built a lot of momentum, we’ve played really well in the last three games; it’s not just that the results were good but also the way we played. So we’re happy, we’re confident and we’re going to take it into the next game which, we know is a big one. We’re feeling good, we’re feeling ready for it, we’re confident, so let’s go!”
Saka was the standout performer in the clash against West Ham, leaving fans and pundits alike to debate his man-of-the-match credentials. Mikel Arteta didn't hold back in his praise for the young winger. He said: “It’s incredible, because it’s the hardest thing to do in football.
“A player that can deliver in those moments can impact the scoreline in that way. The value of that is tremendous, and even if the opponent knows it, he continues to do it, and that’s a bit of credit to him."
