He has 2 goals and 7 assists in seven Premier League matches so far this season. Saka have now revealed two stars who have been extremely important this season. The stars who have received praise from Saka are Kai Havertz and Jurrien Timber.

Kai Havertz has been given the role of a main striker by Mikel Arteta. Arteta started using Havertz as striker last season and got good results from him. Hence, the Arsenal boss decided to make him his permanent striker and even parted ways with Eddie Nketiah.

On the other hand, Jurrien Timber who missed the most of the last season due to injury has made a strong comeback. He is currently giving tough competition to Ben White for the right back position. Timber has played 6 League matches this season and has started 5 of those.

“This season, he’s come out with even more confidence, and I think he’s scored in almost every game. He’s going to score a lot of goals this season. He has really good understanding around the box and knows when to attack it, which is why he gets a lot of chances” – Saka praising Kai Havertz.

Later, Saka spoke very highly about Jurrien Timber who plays on the same side behind him. Firstly, Saka said that he feels confident when Timber is one-on-one with opponent. Saka always believes that Timber will win the ball and give it to him.

“On the ball, he’s so composed, calm and confident. He’s a top player and I’m happy he’s showing it. It must have been tough for him, being on the sidelines for a year, but he always stayed humble and worked hard. Now he’s getting the praise he deserves” – Saka about Jurrien Timber.

Saka is very proud of his Arsenal teammates and has a lot of confidence in them. Gunners will like to stay strong like this and finally make their way to lift the shiny and prestigious Premier League trophy.
