"Hey! Rookie, don't be in a daze!"

Saka suddenly came back to his senses and looked at his surroundings.

Both Arsenal and Brighton players are looking at him, which puts him under great pressure.

Entering the first team from the youth training, and even getting the chance to make his debut at the Emirates Stadium at the age of 17, this is a great honor and achievement for any teenager.

They have been reviewed and eliminated again and again since they were young, and only a few people can finally get on this stage.

As for Saka now, he needs to let go of all his previous pride. In the professional arena, he is a complete rookie.

Saka has a very clear understanding of this, mainly due to the repeated blows in the team's training.

However, Saka was not discouraged. He knew that he was a newcomer and a rookie, but it also meant that he had more possibilities.

Lucky walked up to Saka, patted his shoulder and said, "Next, your task is to break through from the side. As for how to play and how to attack, you need to think of these. And don't forget comminicate!"

Saka nodded fiercely.

From this moment on, he can no longer accept the care of his teammates. He is on the field to play the game, not to hold him back.

"We made a substitution, Bukayo Saka, a 17-year-old boy from the Arsenal youth academy. We look forward to him having a wonderful debut!"

The on-site commentator George Adams also specially introduced it, mainly as a product of his own youth training. This made many Arsenal, including Adams, have a good impression of Saka.

After all, this is our own child!

Unlike those mercenaries who transferred to join, Saka is a fresh force cultivated by Arsenal, and Saka's performance will also represent Arsenal's youth training performance.

"Bukayo! Don't be nervous! Play hard!"

"Calm down! You must calm down!"

"Come on! Bukayo!"

Saka's family roared excitedly in the stands, and his father proudly announced to the surrounding Arsenal fans.

"Look! That's my son. His name is Bukayo Saka. He will definitely become an outstanding player in the future!"

Saka's father made no secret of his confidence in his son, and the fans around him gently applauded.

They do not hesitate to applaud their own people.

The game starts again.

After Brighton kicked off, Arsenal immediately started pressing.

Saka, who just came on the field, seemed very positive, even a little too positive.

Constantly pressing forward and sprinting in a wide range, he failed to find the ball, but instead exhausted himself.

"Stop! Stop! Watch your position and don't blindly grab the ball!"

Lucky really couldn't stand it.

It's normal for young people to be expressive, especially for a newcomer, but Saka seemed to be a little too excited.

This kind of random impact play is not only ineffective, but will even destroy Arsenal's overall defense.

"Think about it while training, you can do it!"

Lucky encouraged him, which made Saka pause for a moment, exhaled slowly, and immediately returned to the game.

This time, Saka became a lot more normal.

“Adapted quickly!”

Mourinho nodded slightly on the sidelines, but the next teamwork is the key.

Arsenal quickly regained the ball, and the ball was distributed to Lucky, who pushed it forward to Wilshere, who passed it across to Saka.

Saka holds the ball. He calms down his inner nervousness and keeps his eyes fixed on the opponent's full-back, ready to pass at any time.

The two were in a stalemate for a while, and Brighton's full-back couldn't help it.

Saka immediately moved the ball when he saw the opponent taking a shot.

The teenager's flexible body made it difficult for Brighton's full-backs.

But he was inexperienced after all. After Saka moved the ball, Brighton's full-back stretched out his hand and pushed it back.

In the end, the ball passed, but the man could not.

"sorry, I"

Saka was about to apologize, but there was no one around him. Wilshere and Lucky retreated very quickly.

When Saka saw the backs of the two of them, he immediately retreated quickly.

Arsenal's defense retreated too quickly, which also prevented Brighton from launching an effective counterattack.

And in the process of not being stable, he was threatened by Arsenal's pressing again and again.

Taking advantage of the moment when the opponent's midfielder was confused and didn't know who to wear it to, Kanter suddenly poked the ball out.

Lucky took a long stride and stretched out his foot to stop the ball. He immediately supported his heel and knocked it directly to Wilshere.

Wilshere continued to split sides.

"Saka, keep coming!"

Saka once again received the ball on the wing. This time facing the opponent's full-back, Saka still chose to use his instant explosive power to get past the opponent.

But the ending was still not good, as the opponent's full-back stopped Saka again.

"Shit!"

Saka couldn't help but stamp his feet angrily.

I couldn't get past it twice in a row. It's useless to continue attacking like this.

But 3 minutes later, the ball was passed to his feet again, this time from Lucai.

This time, Saka finally broke through, but the defending central defender knocked Saka down directly.

Arsenal got a set-piece opportunity in the frontcourt.

"Good performance!"

Lucky ruffled Saka's hair, but the latter was a little frustrated.

His performance was not very good.

But no one comforted him at this time, after all, the game was still going on.

Lucky stood at the penalty spot and whipped the ball hard with the whistle.

The ball flew towards Brighton's goal and flew out against the crossbar.

Lucky secretly thought it was a pity.

"Back on defense!"

Time passed little by little.

Arsenal have completely controlled the tempo.

As for Saka, he continued to dribble and break through from the wing, although he did not succeed many times.

But Arsenal players seemed happy to pass to Saka.

And until the end of the game, Saka failed to score any goals.

competition is over.

Arsenal finally won Brighton 3:0 at home and ushered in the fifth round of the league.

This will also be Arsenal's sixth consecutive victory since the start of the season. Including the Champions League, Arsenal have not lost a game.

It can be said that Arsenal's morale is extremely high today.

And based on victory, they have become even more eager for the championship.

The Arsenal dressing room was lively and the teammates were delighted with the victory.

However, in the corner, Saka was a little depressed.

"Twenty minutes is not short, but I didn't perform at all."

Saka feels sad just thinking about his debut.

No goal!

But Benjamin said: "Your performance is good. Are you too strict with yourself?"

"I feel okay too! Although I didn't score a goal, I posed a lot of threats on the wing!"

Saka asked in confusion; "Threat?"

"That's right, it's a threat and a containment!"

Lucky walked over, looked at Saka and smiled and said, "You performed very well and completed the task very well!"

"Mission?" Saka blinked.

Lucky: "After entering the second half, we already have a three-goal lead. Our main task is no longer offense, but defense and ball control, controlling the rhythm and waiting for the end of the game!"

"The main task at this time is not to concede the ball!"

Saka: "But I lost it several times!"

"It is inevitable to lose the ball in the frontcourt, but the breakthrough and containment you formed on the wing allowed Jack and I to retreat immediately to form a defensive formation, completely blocking the possibility of the opponent's counterattack!"

"As for your breakthrough, this is already a very good performance! Due to tactical considerations in the second half, your teammates did not attract firepower for you and even created gaps."

"Next time, you'll feel it!"

Saka nodded confusedly.

At this time, Mourinho also finished the press conference and walked in.

After Mourinho walked into the locker room, he glanced at Saka standing at the door, stretched out his hand and rubbed Saka's head.

Although no dialogue took place, it was considered an endorsement.

"Everyone tidy up, let's go back to the training base for a post-match summary!"

Post-game summaries are inevitable.

Mourinho loves this. Even if he wins, Arsenal will make a summary and put some mistakes and lack of coordination in the game on the table, so as to avoid making mistakes the second time.

Under this system, Arsenal's defense has become more solid, and the turnover rate has plummeted.

Arsenal have only conceded one goal in the league so far, which fully demonstrates Arsenal's defensive strength.
