Speaking to Thierry Henry and the CBS Sports panel after the match, Saka said: "I don't want to put too much pressure on us but I do think this is the year. I think we have been close the last two years and we are getting closer but this hopefully will be the year."
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Arsenal are still yet to lose this season and although they dropped points against Brighton, and Man City, are well on track to continue their title charge that has seen them come close in the last two years. They were by far and away the better team against Paris Saint-Germain, even without talisman Martin Odegaard.
