Good news for Arsenal supporters. It's been reported that Bukayo Saka is now preparing for his return after being sidelined since December. Pictures of the England international having personal training surfaced the internet today and one of them is the one attached to this post which showed the scar of his surgery. Since he's started training, it seems he might return to playing for the Gunners before the predicted time and that I think will serve as a major boost to Arsenal's quest to catch up with league leaders Liverpool in the league standings
This is indeed a good news for the Gunners for seeing one of their best player back in action but that doesn't mean they are complete in their squad, the missing piece is yet to be added to the team, replacement for Saka or a back up and a number 9. Good thing the Gunners are resting at the moment after being knocked out from the Carabao Cup by Newcastle and now they only have the champions league and the EPL title to battle for and I wonder which would be ok for them to focus more on.
Saka is one of the player that gives the Gunners a good style of play upfront, when it becomes hard he changes the game and add up a little light to get a goal but since he wasn't in action the Gunners seem to struggle to get goals but the only game I noticed Arsenal played without missing Saka is the game against City, one of the hardest since he left. They played like is their last and if they use that same energy I don't think their remaining games would be a problem and even against Liverpool it won't be that difficult against the Reds.
Saka returns may not really make much of a difference because the match between mancity and arsenal is an evidence the club did very well even without him playing. So there prayer should be for Liverpool to lose to Everton so that they can close up in points with them, if not I doubt if this season and the previous will Make any difference for arsenal.
I know many of us are looking at the standard to judge who's going to be the champion but I'll tell you for free that as long as Manchester City did it last season and I think upper season, too it is still possible for the Gunners to win the EPL title from Liverpool but it will only come to light if they (Arsenal) play their cards very well. Who knows, before the end of tomorrow 6pt difference might remain 6pt and when the Gunners eventually wins Leicester it will reduce to 3pt so tell me why Liverpool are not going to be playing under pressure and draw or lose their game after the one tomorrow? It can happen but I hope it happens that way to make the remaining game week more interesting.
Saka's presence will cause much difference because the way and manner they play would change and the pressure will increase for oppositions because of Saka's presence, he provides more threat than Martinelli and the other wingers at Arsenal so that's how I believe it will be.
