Rob Holding Names One Quality That Surprises Him About Bukayo Saka

Arsenal’s Rob Holding is amazed by Bukayo Saka…


 

Arsenal defender Rob Holding revealed that playing against Saka daily is a nightmare and stated how amazed he is about the 20-year-old raw strength, Sky Sports reports.

Holding, while sitting alongside Aaron Ramsdale discussing the squad’s FIFA 22 cards, the defender wasn’t surprised to find out that Saka was the highest-rated academy star in the video game.

The winger has taken his game to a new level this year, making the right-wing position his own and producing matching-winning displays in the final third.

Being more efficient is something Mikel Arteta challenged Saka to add to his games, and the England international has certainly responded.

While many focus on his close control and rapid pace, it’s another surprising quality that’s amazed Holding.

“I can’t believe how strong he is,” Holding said,

“For a young boy, the way he rolls people. 

“Bukayo has the balance to not really fall over or get off-balance and just rolls it. It’s a talent that you have, you can’t teach that.

Holding is right, Saka’s strength is something not many observers speak about but it is rather freakish for a kid his age. Seldom are defenders able to come through the back of him and even knock him off-balance, let alone dispossess him.

It’s that quality that has seen him displace record signing Nicolas Pepe in the team and provide us with some stability in possession, regardless of where he picks the ball up.

At just 20, the ceiling is quite scary for the academy graduate.
