EPL: I absolutely love him – Neville hails ‘fantastic’ Arsenal star

Former Manchester United defender, Gary Neville, has said that Arsenal forward, Bukayo Saka is a player loved by everyone. 

The England international has been outstanding for Arsenal and England national team in recent years.

Saka, 21, was pivotal to the Gunners title chase last season, scoring 14 goals and providing 11 assists across 38 Premier League games.

The Hale End academy graduate has already netted once against Nottingham Forest last week.

Neville described the England international as a special player, while expressing his love for him.

“I absolutely love him. Everyone loves him and you can’t help but love him. You see so many talented young players that have that skill and ability, but usually you don’t see it with reliability and consistency,” he told Sky Sports. 

“To marry them both together is when you have something really special, and he is special, there’s no doubt. 

“He’s tough physically and mentally and he’s robust in the sense that he gets walloped by defenders every week. He’s fantastic in every sense.”
