Are Arsenal actually playing better without Bukayo Saka?!

I think he struggled at the start of the season, I'll be honest. Without Bukayo Saka, Arsenal are a better team. I love Bukayo, but I think at the start of the season, I don't think he's been great. I don't think he particularly looks fit, honestly. I think every time the ball gets played in behind two, three years ago, he's getting there every single time. But I just think he's lost that little yard of pace. I don't know whether that's going to come back or not, but I think he struggled at the start of the season, I'll be honest. I know he scored a few goals early on, but in terms of his all-round performance and just the way he's moving honestly I just look at him I think you look like a seasoned pro do you know what I mean like a 30 year old I'm thinking I need a bit more from you but yeah I think we look better today without him so let's see what happens obviously next week big game and I think that's probably where we'll see if we miss him or not in them big games I think the likes of Everton at home no disrespect to them but we should be winning comfortably against teams like that anyway so I won't read too much into it just yet but I think next week could be more of an indication about where we are.
