Bukayo Saka has become one of the very best players in the world, but, for a long time, he had his doubters.
Indeed, after breaking through in an Arsenal team that was struggling at the time, there were a number of pundits and fans who didn’t quite understand the talent that Saka possessed.
John Terry praised the winger very immediately after he made his breakthrough, calling him a generational talent; nevertheless, Wright was mocked at the time for having such an opinion.
“I remember when he first got the number 7 and we did a piece about it. Bukayo is someone we’ve been talking about from an Arsenal perspective. I remember saying he was a generational talent and people laughed at me saying I was too close to it,
but when you watch him, you see not only is he a fantastically talented player, he’s a very intelligent player the way he plays and it’s all about the team,” Wright said.

Saka is a generational talent, and, in all honesty, he’s not had it easy to make it to this point.
Saka had setback after setback after setback after setback after breaking into an Arsenal team that really tried and then lost at Euro 2020, but he has taken everything in his stride and can continue to improve as he grows and matures.
Saka is already one of the best players in the world, but if he continues to improve, he could go down as one of the best English players of all-time.
Almost as soon as he broke through, John Terry was championing the winger, labelling him as a generational talent, but, at the time Wright was ridiculed for this view
