‘Arteta doesn’t have discipline, that’s why we all call Him a ‘BABY COACH’,If I were Him, this particular player would sit on the bench for four straight matches’: Tottenham head Ange Postecoglou reveals the only Arsenal who performed rubbish despite their massive win against Burnley.
Bukayo Saka received criticism for his penalty in Arsenal’s recent victory over Burnley, with former Tottenham manager Tim Sherwood describing it as “not convincing.” Saka, a key goal threat for Arsenal, netted two goals at Turf Moor, one of which was a first-half penalty that raised concerns about its dramatic nature. Sherwood remarked that the shot, while finding the back of the net, left Arsenal fans with “your heart in your mouth.”
Despite the critique, Saka has been a bright spot for Arsenal as they strive for their first title in two decades. He has taken on penalty duties in recent seasons, with his performances generally well-received, although not everyone was pleased with his last effort. Sherwood emphasized the importance of convincing penalties, pointing out that while it went in, the goalkeeper should have saved it.
Saka, who experienced penalty heartbreak in the Euros final at Wembley Stadium, has since been clinical from the spot, converting challenging penalties, including a crucial one against Liverpool last season. His only miss came in a draw with West Ham last season, but this year, he has a perfect record of four successful penalties.
Despite scoring twice in the Burnley match and helping Arsenal stay competitive with Liverpool, who are only two points ahead, Saka fell short of securing a hat-trick. He remains confident that achieving a career treble is within reach.
