Arsenal star Bukayo Saka can join Premier League legends Harry Kane and Dennis Bergkamp in unique roster

Bukayo Saka could equal the record set by Harry Kane and Dennis Bergkamp when he lines up for Arsenal this weekend.

The talented winger will be part of the Gunners team that will travel to face Sheffield United on Monday night, a clash that will be broadcast exclusively live on talkSPORT.

Saka comes into the game in impressive form, having scored in his last five Premier League games, a run that includes a brace in his last two away games.

They include the 5-0 victory over Burnley and the 6-0 to West Hamin which Saka was influential.

As a result, the 22-year-old could equal a Premier League record by scoring twice against the Blades at Bramall Lane.

Only Kane and Bergkamp have managed to score two goals in more than two consecutive away games, and both have scored a double in three consecutive away games.

“And I'd probably be a little mad at Rio for mentioning it as it is, because it's the narrative of everything, especially when you listen to TNT.

“And now it is something that I would be very interested in seeing his relationship with Rio.

“For me, let's face it, he's one of the most decorated players, and him coming up with that kind of talk doesn't help. It doesn't help at all.

“In that particular situation, I was very disappointed because it's not necessary.”
