GW29 FPL team news: Get the club updates

Not only is he supremely talented, he’s equally tactically intelligent and thrives in multiple roles.In the time leading up to Arsenal’s return post-lockdown, Since the restart, the 18-year-old’s tactical intelligence has come to the fore: he’s played as a right winger, left wing-back, and as a ‘free 8’ in a midfield three, mostly to acceptable-to-good results.It was from the right wing he spectacularly opened his Arsenal account just before half-time against Wolverhampton Wanderers last week, days after committing to the club on a long-term deal.Nuno Espirito Santo’s troops hadn’t allowed a single goal in first-halves against West Ham United, Bournemouth and Aston Villa before the dynamic teenager ended their run of 177 minutes without conceding in first-halves, and 313 minutes in total.The teenager was equally impressive against Leicester City in midweek, fooling an experienced head like Jonny Evans with quick footwork before setting up the club captain for his 20th league goal of the campaign. Arsenal have expressed their displeasure at the Premier League’s decision to leave Bukayo Saka off the Premier League Young Player of the Season shortlist with a hilarious social media post.The eight nominees for the top-flight honour were Manchester United quartet; Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Mason Greenwood and Dean Henderson (on loan to Sheffield), Liverpool superstar Trent Alexander-Arnold, Chelsea duo Mason Mount and Christian Pulisic, as well as Villa’s Jack Grealish.Arsenal reacted to the snub by posting a meme which showed a baffled Saka in a picture from training combined with a popular image of a shocked cat at the dining table.The Gunners are clearly proud of the ace’s performances this season, with the ace Saka has started 19 of his 26 top-flight outings this term, scoring once and chipping in with an impressive five assists.The 18-year-old has established himself as an important player in Mikel Arteta’s side with solid performances all across the park, versatility is one of the talent’s biggest strengths.Whilst I don’t argue with the performances of any of the above nominees – and I’m certainly not an Arsenal fan – the criteria on whose eligible for the honour need to seriously questioned.Grealish and Martial are around a whole six years older than the youngest nominee Greenwood – and also snubbed Gunners ace Saka.Grealish and Martial are bonafide stars with several seasons of Premier League experience, it seems a massive oversight by the top-flight to include players like this as nominees for the award.

He’s performed commendably despite a turbulent year where many of the top players, excluding club captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, have either been badly off-form or largely absent.This has earned him a whole lot of goodwill, and based on Mikel Arteta’s reign so far, he'll be a vital component going forward.Having come into the side as a winger whose inclination was to hug the touchline, there were probably a plethora of sighs when the teenager replaced Sead Kolasinac at left-back just before half-time against Manchester City in mid-December.
