Roy Keane has been singing the praises of Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka, ahead of the crunch clash with Manchester United this afternoon.

Saka has once again been a key player for Arsenal as they’ve knocked it out of the park with five wins from five this term already. A win today at Old Trafford would put them four points clear of second, although United can jump into the top four themselves by winning.

Of course, Saka is a man to watch. And speaking ahead of the game for Sky, former United skipper Keane admits he is a big fan of the Gunners youngster.

“You have to be able to deal with big expectations and playing in front of big crowds and the big challenge for him now is can he kick on. Big contracts, money, that’s obviously where his family come into it. Every time I’ve heard him give interviews he’s come across really well, he’s had a big challenge with England as well,” Keane said on Sky Sports.

“So he’s squeezed a lot into a short career. I like everything about him and I think if you want to play for the big teams, what he has got he’s capable of beating players, beats players easily. Of course there’s more to come from him, end product etc, but I really like the look of the kid.”

TBR’s View: Saka Key For Arsenal

Make no mistake about it, Bukayo Saka is more than key for Arsenal today and for the rest of the season. Should the Gunners win today, then it’s more than likely Saka has played well.

The England man has star quality and oozes class and if you’re impressing Roy Keane, then you’re doing something right at the end of the day.

Saka will hope for a big showing in front of the Sky cameras today, as he looks to back up Keane’s opinion.
