Bukayo Saka is approaching his ‘Michael Jordan moment’, says Kolo Toure

Kolo Toure believes Bukayo Saka is approaching his ‘Michael Jordan moment’ as he picked the winger as the one current Arsenal star who would be at home alongside the ‘Invincibles’.

Saka and his team-mates head to Manchester City on Wednesday night for a Premier League title showdown.

The Gunners have drawn their last three games and now sit five points clear at the summit, having played two more games than their closest rivals.

It means the midweek clash at the Etihad Stadium is likely to go a long way to determining the destination of the title this season, with Arsenal in search of their first Premier League crown in 19 years.

Toure was a part of the team that season and went on to win the league at City in 2012 and he is a big fan of Saka, backing the England international to potentially make the difference on Wednesday.

“This is the first time he has had that pressure,” he replied when asked about Saka dealing with the expectations on his shoulders.

“But it is money time now. This is when Michael Jordan made his money. When he made the difference.

“They would give him the ball when the pressure was on and they would look for the guy who could make the difference.

“The Arsenal team have Saka and this boy has a special talent, definitely. He’s been carrying that team very well this season.

“In the games coming, he has to show that. It’s not about age. It’s about talent. He has unbelievable talent and desire. He loves that club and I’m sure this is a player who can really push the team up.”

Toure’s title at Arsenal came during an unbeaten season under Arsene Wenger in 2004 and the former Ivory Coast defender selected Saka as the member of the current ranks he would have liked in that squad.
