Theo Walcott has sung the praises of Arsenal’s young stars. The former Arsenal winger went on to compare Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe to having the same impact as Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp.
After Saka's goal against Chelsea, it meant that he and Smith Rowe had both scored 10 goals and more in the Premier League this season. This is just the third time that two players aged 21 or under have this for the same team in the campaign, with Ronaldo and Rooney following suit in the 2006/2007 season.
Both youngsters have been pivotal to Arsenal’s Champions League push this season. Walcott believes that they are a crucial part of Arteta’s rebuilding process.
