Arsenal teenager Bukayo Saka has said that he is willing to fight for his place and has also advised other Arsenal attackers to do so, following Alexandre Lacazette’s return from injury.

The 18-year-old has risen up to be an integral part of Emery’s setup this season. With five appearances under his belt already, Saka has contributed with a goal and three assists.

“The boss knows what I can do, what the other players can do. Different games require different players but I feel like I’ve shown the boss he can trust me. Whatever game he puts me in I’ll always give it my all,” he said.

He added: “The boss has really trusted me and put a lot of faith in me. I just try to work hard in training every day, he has given me the opportunity to work in this team. I’ve learned so much from the other players and it’s showing on the pitch.”

“Do I feel established in the first team? I don’t know yet, I just try to work hard, give my all and put in a good performance.”

“Hopefully after I’ve put in that performance I can build on it. If the boss trusts me to play I’ll always do my best.”
