Cascarino Says Saka’s Desire Makes Him Better Than Mbappe and Vinicius
Former Chelsea striker Tony Cascarino has revealed he would choose Bukayo Saka over Real Madrid’s Vinicius Junior right now.
Speaking ahead of Arsenal’s Champions League clash with PSG, Cascarino praised Saka for his rapid development, work rate, and impact on games, saying those are the qualities he finds lacking in Kylian Mbappe.
“Saka has grown massively as a player,” Cascarino said. “His hunger and effort on the pitch are outstanding. That’s exactly what I feel Mbappe doesn’t show enough of.”
He also suggested that Vinicius has not been at his best lately, possibly due to the pressure brought on by Kylian Mbappe’s arrival at Madrid. Cascarino believes this shift has also affected Rodrygo, another young Madrid talent.
“Saka works tirelessly, he troubles defenders constantly, and was a key reason Arsenal advanced,” he added. “Considering he’s just returned from a serious injury, it’s even more impressive. If I had to choose between Vinicius and Saka right now, I’d go with Saka.”
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.
“He brings a different quality and probably a different profile to the midfield players we have.
“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.
He shared an update on Saka and stated that he is doing better after going through a hip injury. “His hip is improving a lot. Hopefully, he’ll be ready soon.”
He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
