Former Tottenham defender William Gallas has advised Arsenal star Bukayo Saka to change his style of football if he must get back to his best.
After several seasons of high-volume play, there are suggestions that he is experiencing physical fatigue, reducing his explosive burst, and that he may need to evolve his game to rely on intelligence over sheer pace.
Addressing the issue, Gallas, in a chat with BOYLE Sports, argues that Saka’s approach has become too traditional, allowing opposing teams to anticipate his movements, often cutting inside from the right.

“Saka is 24 now. What does he have to do to get back to his best? Maybe he has to change his football.
“Every player knows him in the Premier League. They have all played against him. They know his movement. He has to change something and bring something new into his game to surprise his opponents.
“For the type of player Saka is, we are always looking at what they produce. How many goals has he scored? How many assists did he create? Then we will know if he has improved or not to compare with the previous seasons.
“He is still young at 24 and he started very young but it doesn’t matter. He has to bring something new to his game. A big club has a big squad so it’s about rotation as well.”
