Manchester City Brutally Mocks Arsenal on Social Media for Making False Bukayo Saka Claim

• Manchester City scored one over Arsenal on social media by subtly mocking a post from the Gunners’ official page on X
• Arsenal made an embarrassing gaffe while trying to heap praise on their winger Bukayo Saka’s goal-scoring prowess in the 2023/2024 season
• The Citizens beat Arsenal to the Premier League title, ending the season two points better off than Mikel Arteta’s side

Arsenal and Manchester City took their rivalry to social media, with the latter trolling the other over a hilarious error.

The Gunners were forced to delete a post they made on X, formerly Twitter, with Manchester City sharing a similar post in an apparent dig at the Gunners.

Arsenal shared a statistic about their winger Bukayo Saka but took the post down minutes after realizing the stat was inaccurate.

The post highlighted Saka’s 16 goals and nine assists in the Premier League this season, with claims the England international was the only player to register a goal or assist against every Premier League side he has faced.

While Saka has been in impressive form for the Gunners in the 2023/2024 campaign, he was not the first or only player to score or assist against all Premier League opponents he faced.

Manchester City ace Erling Haaland has already achieved this feat, while Harry Kane, now at Bayern Munich, also holds a similar record from his time at Tottenham.

Bukayo Saka’s impressive form

Despite Arsenal’s error in judgement in sharing the post about Saka, there is no denying Saka’s importance to the Gunners.

The winger was his team’s top scorer last season, with 20 goals across all competitions, according to Tranfermarkt.

He has gone from strength to strength in recent years, gradually increasing his goal tally for his club.

In the last five seasons, his league goal tally for Arsenal has gone from one, five, eleven, 14 and 16 in the 2023/2024 campaign.
