Despite Arsenal’s 5-0 victory, Tim Sherwood oddly criticizes the 22-year-old, saying, “This is not convincing.”

After Arsenal destroys Burnley 5-0, Tim Sherwood oddly criticizes Bukayo Saka.

That’s 11 goals in two games for Mikel Arteta and his team, with four goals and two penalties coming from Bukayo Saka.

The 22-year-old scored his first penalty kick last week against Burnley, having missed one at the London Stadium the season before. On Saturday, he beat James Trafford in the team’s 5-0 rout.

However, Tim Sherwood told Premier League Productions that Bukayo Saka’s penalty “wasn’t convincing” and was, in fact, “poor” (17/02/24 @ 5:10 pm).

The former Premier League manager’s criticism was pretty odd since the Arsenal youth product has since stepped up and shown that he can be counted on to deliver from the spot.

In addition, players like Bukayo Saka are demonstrating that a number nine wasn’t required during the January transfer window, despite the club’s protests that they need a striker.

With seven goal contributions in the Champions League, the England international currently has 12 goals and 8 assists in the Premier League.

However, Tim Sherwood was drawn to the star boy’s penalty—but not in a good way.

Saka Bukayo’s penalty

Sherwood stated, “Then Saka has the final say, and this is not convincing.” “If you are an Arsenal fan, you would have had your heart in your mouth at that point, but it’s convincing enough when it nestles behind the goalie into the back of the net.

“The sentence was inadequate. Take a look at the goalie; he ought to save it. It has actually slid under his hand.

“However, it ultimately ended up in the back of the net.”

Arsenal is back in the Champions League.

Arsenal should feel confident going into their Champions League trip to Portugal to play Porto, since this is the finest mood they have had all season.

Arsenal’s time comes after Manchester City performed admirably in the first leg of their knockout match against Copenhagen.

There aren’t many teams in Europe’s top tournament that seem like they can win it all; many would certainly choose Real Madrid, Inter, and Arsenal, the reigning champions.

In any case, Arsenal now has a fantastic opportunity to advance far in the Champions League and possibly surprise everyone by taking home the championship.
