    It's a mentality-thing now; does he have the minerals for it. A striker is expected to score every game, whereas for a winger, 1-in-3 or four or five will do. Some players may be happier hiding out wide rather than being the main man in the middle everyone looks to to win games.

    Same with Saka. Each goal he gets is something of a nice bonus at the moment. He brings to mind Robben. When you think of him, he's always scoring THAT goal. In fact, he didn't actually do it that often. In a successful Robben team, the REAL goalscoring was always done by somebody else.

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    Absolutely - he's quite a clever finisher with his left (see the West Ham one when he knew the keeper was expecting the curler into the far corner for instance) but on his right he just does the basics, but there is still good technique there. We are blessed to have him

    He could actually become our very own Lionel Messi. Sorry, ruined it now
