Arsenal cruised into the Europa League semi-finals last night with a ruthless display of finishing against Slavia Prague.

The Gunners ran out 4-0 winners on the night as goals from Nicolas Pepe, Bukayo Saka, and an Alexandre Lacazette double, ensured Mikel Arteta remains on course to win a trophy.

Arsenal will now face Villarreal in the semis, with a potential final against Manchester United a likely outcome.

And on last night’s display, it seems the Gunners can be confident of winning the trophy. Indeed, a number of players put in superb performances and none more so than young winger, Bukayo Saka.

As well as scoring a stunning goal, Saka was everywhere on the night as he buzzed around. His performance, then, caught the eye of a number of onlooking ex-players and pundits, including Chris Sutton and Trevor Sinclair, who both tweeted during the game to show their appreciation of Saka.

Saka, it seems, is getting better and better by the week. Still just a teenager, the future looks scarily bright for the Gunners star.

Not many teenagers can hold that sort of weight with a team but such is Saka’s impact, that he has be one of, if not the, first name on Arteta’s sheet.

The young England man has been nothing short of sensational this season. He has all the tools to make it as a genuine world class star, too.

Last night was the proof in the pudding when it comes to Saka’s talents, if any was needed.
