Arsenal defender White: Saka? He has it all, doesn't he?

Arsenal defender Ben White has sung the praises of Bukayo Saka.

White admits Saka can make his teammates look better than they are.

"I think working with B [Saka] is quite easy," he told eSPN.

"You don't have to be too good a player to play behind him. There are always situations where I stitch him up and he gets out of it because he's so good, making me look so much better than I am.

"He's obviously phenomenal, and my job is to help him be the best and [help him] show what he can do on a game day. So I'll be doing them extra runs for him, or whatever I can, to make him glow and do the best he can.

"He's just got it all, hasn't he? He's so strong. He's willing to learn and do anything to be better. And doing it on a consistent basis, never injured, touchwood.

"He's always available and always trains. So I think for a guy that plays every game, that's so crucial to the team, that's so important... That's what he's gonna have to do for the next 10 years."
