Saka Calls Lamine Yamal’s Performances “Unreal” After Impressive Display at 17
Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka has praised Barcelona’s teenage star Lamine Yamal, calling his performances “not normal.” The 17-year-old has left many in awe with his skill and impact on the pitch, and Saka is no exception. Despite being just a few months shy of his 18th birthday, Yamal has already racked up 100 appearances for Barcelona.
“He’s on another level. Honestly, what he’s doing at his age is unreal,” Saka told Sky Sports. “It’s not normal. I don’t think I’ve seen anything like it from a 17-year-old, so full credit to him.” Yamal was outstanding in Barcelona’s thrilling 3-3 Champions League semi-final draw against Inter Milan on Wednesday, showing maturity beyond his years.
At his age, Yamal has already outperformed legends like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo at similar points in their careers. In 100 games, Yamal has contributed 49 goals and assists, while Messi had 55 by the time he reached that milestone, though he was almost 21. Meanwhile, a 19-year-old Ronaldo had just 26 goals and assists after his first 100 professional appearances.
Former English footballer, Jamie Redknapp, makes bold suggestion regarding Mohamed Salah to leave the club, Liverpool.
The suggestion came after Liverpool manager Arne Slot criticized the player — a move Redknapp called out following Salah’s benching in the last match.
The former player shared “I don’t necessarily think in January. I just think we have got to let this settle. But I don’t foresee that he will see out the two years of his contract. I think it might be more in the summer.”
Arsenal football manager Mikel Arteta speaks on the team’s defeat against Aston Villa, 2–1, in their match on Saturday.
It can be recalled that Aston Villa scored a goal in the first half, but Arsenal scored back in the second half. After equalizing, Aston Villa scored another goal.
“In the first half we had moments, obviously had the best chance after a foul on Riccy [Calafiori] that Watkins goes through,” Arteta said.
“In the second half we started really well. Scored a goal and we were really dominant.”
Former Liverpool player, Jamie Carragher, speaks on Arsenal’s next match and claims that their game against Aston Villa will be challenging and described it as a test for the team to see how well they perform.
“Arsenal have looked the best team in the league by a long way so far this season, but Man City are still only five points behind.
There’s a long way to go and Arsenal will need to keep their heads! It could be tested tomorrow against Aston Villa!!”
