Arsenal's Saka ready for 'beautiful challenge' to overtake Man City in title race
Arsenalblew an eight-point lead over Manchester City to gift the title to the Manchester club last season. But they have shown few signs of nerves this time, winning four in a row to keep City at bay for now.
"You can see it in two ways: You can either view it as frustrating or as a beautiful challenge. Everybody knows they (City) are one of the best teams in the world and they have been on top for five years, challenging for everything, so for ourselves to be up there competing with them is good," Bukayo Saka said.
"We’re pushing them the whole way, and let’s see what happens. But we are not getting frustrated - we see it as a challenge that we want to fight until the end. They have set a standard and it’s up to the rest of us to try and be better than them," he claimed.
The 22-year-old went on to add: "The pain of last year has brought together and we are so hungry to go one step further this year - but also in future years, too. We are young, we are hungry, we’ve got quality and we have many more years ahead of us and we’ll have lots of experiences together."
