He was better than Saka: Against Monaco, Arsenal’s “scary” 8/10 star was a “beast.”

Arsenal’s Champions League victory over Monaco Friday night more than stabilized the ship, despite their less than perfect performance.

Mikel Arteta’s team was nearly flawless in the first half, and they could have led by three or four goals at the interval if players like Gabriel Martinelli or Gabriel Jesus had been present at the races.

Thankfully, the Gunners capitalized on errors and lack of focus to increase their lead and ultimately ended the game at a canter, even though the Ligue 1 team presented a greater threat in the second half.

A number of players performed well for the North Londoners, but two in particular—Bukayo Saka, of course—really stood out.

The match between Bukayo Saka and Monaco

Yes, the talismanic winger for Arsenal was well-deserving of his Man of the Match award after leading from the front once more in a Champions League match.

All three points were secured by the Hale End icon, who opened the scoring in the first half, doubled the lead in the second half, and then assisted Kai Havertz’s attempt in the final seconds.

The unpredictable number seven made a big impression on football, as was to be expected.At full time, Kaya Kaynak, the chief Arsenal writer for London, gave him an 8 out of 10 rating and commended him for creating “the difference-making moments” for the club.

The 23-year-old’s post-game accolades are more than justified by his performance statistics.

The incredible winger played 93 minutes, finished with a combined expected goal and assist figure of 0.48, two shots on goal, one blocked, 48 touches, three key passes, 100% accuracy on his long balls, one big chance, three interceptions, and two tackles.

All things considered, that was an absolutely outstanding performance from the guy who is currently the most crucial member of his squad; nonetheless, another starter was maybe equally amazing, but for a somewhat different reason: Lewis-Skelly, Myles.

The match between Myles Lewis-Skelly and Monaco

Yes, Lewis-Skelly was without a doubt the Gunners’ other standout player from their thrilling victory last night.

Although it’s reasonable to argue that the 18-year-old had less of an impact on the outcome than Saka given his lack of goals and assists, his performance was nonetheless equally noteworthy because it was his first Champions League start, and he looked completely at home.

The Hale End graduate had to start because of the team’s ongoing injury crisis, but he seemed completely at ease on the greatest stage in Europe from the first minute on. He was decisive in attack and confident in defense.

For instance, Saka’s goal was scored by Jesus when he played the ball across the box, but only because of an amazing defense-splitting pass from the Islington-born gem, who Arsenal podcaster Will Balsam rightly called a “different beast” for a similar pass he made against Bolton.

Football was impacted by the dynamic gem, who former U18 coach Jack Wilshere declared could do “things you can’t coach.”Moreover, the journalist gave him an 8 out of 10 rating on London’s Kayak, noting that he “exhibited composure beyond his years.”
