Arsenal’s starboy Bukayo Saka has been accused of having an off season by rival fans, yet the Englishman notched his 15th Premier League goal of the season against Tottenham.

Not only is that number his best return in a season, Saka becomes the first Englishman for Arsenal to score that number in a season since Ian Wright.

Saka played his part defensively as Arsenal allowed the hosts to hold the ball, winning 12 duels and earning four fouls across the 90.

It was his corner that created the first goal, although he won’t be given an assist as it was an own goal. Saka keeps on getting better and Arsenal will be relying on their winger to keep on delivering as the Gunners head into the last three games of the season.
