“He’s the best teammate i ever had in my career, he use to tell me to pass to him every time”- Arsenal hero Leandro Trossard admits he’s completely blown away by how good 23-years old Arsenal teammate was this season

Leandro Trossard blown away by how good 22-year-old Arsenal teammate was this season

Leandro Trossard was very impressed with Arsenal teammate Bukayo Saka after his performances in the champions league games this season.

Saka took to social media after making a perfect start to his Champions League career this season

Arsenal’s return to Europe’s premier competition couldn’t have gone any better at the Emirates as they recorded an excellent start in the group stage matches and were even regarded by many as one of the favourite to win the UCL this season .

Bukayo Saka took just eight minutes to find the back of the net on his Champions League debut, pouncing on the rebound from a Martin Odegaard shot against PSV

He then turned provider for Leandro Trossard as the Belgian scored in his second consecutive game.

Gabriel Martinelli’s injury is a blow for the Gunners but the 28-year-old has proven once again he’s an able deputy.

Trossard and Saka both played brilliantly for Arsenal against PSV and were delighted with the results they got in the early stages before Bayern Munich sent them packing out of the competition.

Arsenal faced so many tough tests in the league as they avoided defeats against the traditional top 6 clubs while beating Manchester United home and away.

Posting on Instagram after the whistle, Saka said: “A night I’ll never forget. CL Debut, CL Goal, 3-Points. Back where we belong.”

He received plenty of messages, with Jude Bellingham saying: “Congrats brother,” while Ian Wright simply called him, “Elite!”.

Jurrien Timber and Leandro Trossard both agreed that Saka was “On firee,” for Arsenal against PSV.

The Gunners will face tougher tests in the Champions League next season but looked very comfortable at this level already.

Saka impressed Arsenal legend Thierry Henry this season and would have loved how clinical he was for so many of his goals this season, looking very much matured in front of goal.

He shot from a tight angle against PSV which made the keeper had no chance as he tried to recover from Odegaard’s initial strike.

It should come as no surprise that Saka looks right at home in the Champions League.

He’s one of the best players in the Premier League and has thrived on the biggest stage for England.

Saka will already be looking forward to focusing on the Euros this month as he joins the England National team despite recent reports claiming he’s had a minor injury.
