‘His all round footballing ability’…Danny Murphy claims £40m Chelsea player is actually better than Bukayo Saka
Bukayo Saka might be one of the best players in the league right now but Danny Murphy has suggested Chelsea have someone better.
Saka has been one of the stars of the show for Arsenal this season as they plough towards being in contention to win the Premier League t🐎itle.
For Saka, winni𝐆ng the title would cap off an amazing few seasons. After being ridiculed for missing a penalty for England in the Euro 2020 final, Saka has since💎 gone from strength to strength.
Of course, going into this summer’s Euros in Germany, Saka will once again be crucial. He shone at the World Cup in Qatar and is very much one of the first names on the tꦡeam-sheet.
However, there are a number of players in similar positions to Saka doing we⛎ll in the Premier League.
One of whomℱ is Chelsea star, Cole Palmer. The signing from Manchester City scored a hat-trick last night against Manchester United.
A🌃nd speaking about Palmer and Saka for TalkSPORT, Danny Murphy has suggested that Palmer is actually the better footballerﷺ than Saka.
Cole Palmer better than Bukayo Saka
Speaking on , Murphy praised both players but made the case to suggest that ri💮ght now, Palmer is the better overall footballer.
“He’s got more goals than Saka. Look, don’t get wrong I love Saka and he’s a right winger out and out, Palmer’s kind of playing there as a ten. But his all arouꩵnd game (Palmer’s) you could argue is better. I’m not saying he’s a better right-winger than Saka but his all round footballing ability, in terms of passing, linking, dropping in, b꧙ecause Saka doesn’t play that role does he so it’s not a fully fair comparison.
“But I don’t see why it’s not an argument to have that he can’t take the p💎lace of anyone in the England team, apart from Bellingham, because of his numbers,” Murphy .
Palmer has rattled in 16 🉐PL goals this season and has more than 20 in all competitions, while his assist numbers are also into double figures now as well.
A place on the plane with Englan𝓀d♑ is all but a give now.
Quite whether he can replace Saka, remains to be seen. But there is a strong case for both to be selected by Gareth Southgatಌe, such is the talent.
