Don't you know the fact that if Arsenal is always tie to the Saka? Once he missed the game, then Arsenal is nothing than a bunch of guys who being so clueless. Arsenal is absolutely terrible without him, not many big chances created, unable to break the line, and many more.
I don't think Arsenal relies on one player only. Saka may have a big role in Arsenal but Arsenal never relies on him only. If Arsenal relies on Saka, it means Arteta has no function at all. For me, the coach's role is always bigger than one player. The coach who choose the lineup, formation, and tactics. These are the things that influence much on the match.
I think it's has been mentioned so many times about how Arsenal's attack always flanking from Saka's side. If you're regularly watching PL, you must know this cuz it's a basic thing about Arsenal.
I don't regularly watch Arsenal game, but I'm sure Arsenal won't use a boring strategy. If Arsenal only started their attack from one side, it will easily be stopped by the opponent. I know Saka has a big role, he may be like Salah in Liverpool. But in the match, a team must build their attack from many sides, they can use a monotonous approach.
Dude, you need to count how many attackers of Arsenal who get injured. The problem of Arsenal is they have lack of available attackers. All of their main attackers are injured, that's why they can't win the current matches.

You can't deny Saka is one of highest rating premier league player after Salah. A player with most contribution to the club. He's always helping to carrying his club by created so many big chances for his teammates.
