Former Chelsea defender Scott Minto has heaped praise on Arsenal striker Bukayo Saka.

Saka has just had an impressive performance against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League encounter this weekend. Minto thinks Saka, who scored Arsenal’s goal against Nottingham Forest, is the traditional type of player.

2 goals from Saka and Eddie Nketiah helped Mikel Arteta’s army beat Forest at the Emirates. Saka impressed Minto by staying strong after being tackled in the opponent’s box.

Minto told HITC: “He’s the traditional type of player when it comes to honesty. He goes into the box, there two players come after him, he goes to the other side; there’s a shot. light touch, really not enough to fall down.”

“But I can say that at least 50% of strikers in the Premier League will roll out on the pitch and ask the referee questions. But he doesn’t.”

Saka has been hailed at Arsenal over the years since his debut for the Gunners, becoming a mainstay of the team at a very young age.
