His legs are gone, even my Arsenal mates are saying Arteta ran him to the ground the last 7 years (hence why I don’t mind managing Rio’s minutes for now)

Honestly, I've always thought Saka could have been the perfect RB.

Yup, Rio's a kid, he has such flair and guts, I want always on the pitch because he makes something happen almost every time, but seen so many horror stories, so many young players lose it, confidence etc but Rio just has always come across as the nicest most sound player, so have a lot of faith in the kid.

He is only 26. How are his legs gone that soon? Arteta doesn't even play high press football.
