Former Arsenal and Manchester City defender Kolo Toure has claimed that Bukayo Saka needs to take hold of the huge Premier League title clash on Wednesday. In a first vs second meeting at the Etihad Stadium, it appears to be winner takes all.
City are on fire and bulldozing through competitions with the treble firmly in sight while the Gunners are looking to bounce back from three consecutive draws. Win in Manchester and everything changes once more for Mikel Arteta's men.
It is a new feeling for this young Arsenal side, though, and none of the players, barring Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko in their time under Pep Guardiola, have experienced this situation before. Toure believes now is the time to stand up and be counted, pinpointing Arsenal's star that can change the game.
