Bukayo Saka has a high opinion of Manchester United stars Mason Greenwood and Aaron Wan-Bissaka
Speaking to the Premier League’s official Youtube channel, Arsenal wonderkid Bukayo Saka has hyped up Manchester United duo Mason Greenwood and Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
The 19-year-old is enjoying an excellent season and is firmly in contention to become an Arsenal regular. Speaking on the show, he was asked to pick the best youngster in each of the six main attribute categories on FIFA’s Ultimate Team.
Saka was fairly fair in his assessment and chose Greenwood as yougnster adept at shooting.
“Shooting, Mason Greenwood. Both feet, he’s amazing and I think that’s one of his best qualities.”
Saka also went on to categorize United right-back Wan-Bissaka as the best in the defending category. The 23-year-old is a tough man to beat and the Gunners star has had his own set of challenges while facing him.
“Defending, Wan-Bissaka. I’ve rarely seen him get beaten, so I’d say him. When I played against him, I didn’t find myself a lot in those situations, but I could feel what he wanted to do as I’ve obviously seen him play before. It’s about not going into the trap he sets for you.”
Both United stars have predominantly played on the right flank and have performed well in conjunction.
As someone who plays on the left, Saka has come up against the United duo. It is fair to say that both players have left a lasting impression on him.

United have a number of talented players coming through their system at the moment. While Greenwood and Wan-Bissaka are now first-team regulars, the likes of Facundo Pellistri and Amad Diallo are still to make their mark.
Hopefully, they too will go on to enjoy similar if not greater success.
