Thierry Henry claims Bukayo Saka has started doing something new at Arsenal recently.

The Arsenal legend watched on last night as his former side thrashed Sheffield United 6-0 at Bramall Lanওe.

While Bukayo Saka didn’t♈ get on the scoresheet on Monday evening, ♓the 22-year-old provided a constant threat down the right-hand side as he created two of Arsenal’s goals.

The E💮nglishman forced Jayden Bogle into turning the ball into his own net as he delivered a ball across the face of the goal after beating Aaron Trusty.

Saka then created Arsenal’s fifth just before the break as he once again went down the outside before setting up Declan Rice.

And Thierry Henry believes Saka has picked up a new habit of also attꦏempting to beat his man on the outside.꧟

Speaking on , Henry highlighted Saka’s n🐼ew habit of also beating his man on the outside, as well as drifting inside.

“This is what Bukayo Saka has brought 🌊to his game now,” the Arsenal legend said. “People, as you can see, the Sheffield United player went on the inside to wait for him but he went on the outside and I think you need to beat the pla🎶yer on the outside.”

Saka has continued to provide for Arsenal in the final third this ☂season, despite opponents often dou🌠bling up on the Hale End Academy product.

The fact that Saka has adjusted his game to beಌcome more unpredictable is clearly paying off for both himself and Arsenal.

While he didn’t get in on the act lওast night, he once again played a key role in a convinci෴ng win on the road.

There is no doubt that Saka prefers to come inside on his stronger left foot. But as we witnessed last n𒁏ight, he can be just as effective while setting up his teammates on his weaker foo🎶t.
