Arsenal star Bukayo Saka has been praised by John Terry for his impressive display against West Ham on Wednesday.

The 20-year-old was a constant threat against the Hammers and gave Arthur Masuaku a torrid time.

Saka pressed well in the opening stages and grew more and more into the game.

His passing, ball control and dangerous runs left the opposition with little answer.

And Terry, watching the game on television, sung Saka’s praises on his Instagram story.

“I love @Bukayosaka87 constantly gets me off my seat so exciting to watch,” he wrote.

Arsenal moved up to fourth in the Premier League table thanks to goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Emile Smith Rowe.

On 48 minutes, Martinelli bore down on goal and duly slotted into the corner to break the deadlock.

And late on, an Arsenal break culminated in Smith Rowe cutting inside and rifling home.

The Gunners could have even had a third, but Lukasz Fabianski kept out Alexandre Lacazette’s penalty.

Arsenal have now won their last two Premier League games, lifting the atmosphere at the Emirates.

And with players like Saka in their ranks, the future is certainly looking bright for the north Londoners.
