Gabriel Martinelli had nothing but praise for his fellow Arsenal teammate, Bukayo Saka, after the team's recent win against Southampton in the Premier League. Saka, who has been in exceptional form this season, scored a crucial goal to secure the win for Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
Despite Southampton taking a surprise lead in the second half, Saka's performance and contribution to the game couldn't be ignored. He not only scored a goal but also provided assists for two other goals, including one for Martinelli himself. With three goals and seven assists already this season, Martinelli believes that Saka is now one of the best players in the world.
In fact, Saka's seven assists in the Premier League put him above any other player, and he even surpassed Robert Pires' record for the most assists for Arsenal in a single season. Martinelli also mentioned that Saka is not only a talented player but also a great person, making him a valuable member of the team and one of the captains.
Speaking about his own goal, Martinelli acknowledged Saka's incredible pass that set him up for the goal. He couldn't hide his excitement and described the moment as "unbelievable" and a "nice goal."
Thanks to their win against Southampton, Arsenal remains unbeaten this season and currently sits at third place in the Premier League, only one point behind the leaders, Liverpool. Manager Mikel Arteta was pleased with the team's performance, especially their strong start to the game and the many chances they created. He also praised the substitutes for changing the energy of the game and the atmosphere in the stadium.
Arteta also singled out Kai Havertz for his impressive performance, scoring his fourth goal in just seven Premier League games. He described Havertz as a "hungry" and "intelligent" player who is focused on achieving his goals.
Despite facing a difficult schedule and dealing with many injured players, Arteta believes that the team has shown resilience and will continue to do so in the future. He sees their win against Southampton as a good platform to build on for the rest of the season.
Next up for Arsenal is a visit to Bournemouth after the international break. Bournemouth has been performing well this season, but they suffered a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Leicester City on Saturday. Arsenal will have to be at their best to secure another win and continue their unbeaten streak.
