Bukayo Saka said the best team he has faced this season is Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). It is impressive that he did not pick Liverpool, which belongs to the same league, the English Premier League (EPL).

Arsenal are competing with PSG to advance to the UEFA Champions League final. Unfortunately, he had to concede the league trophy to Liverpool. Although Liverpool has 82 points and Arsenal 67 points, PSG seems to be a more capable team for Saka.

Asked to rate PSG's performance, Saka told Sky Sports "Only two have changed in the starting line-up compared to the previous games, but their organisation, ball flow and movement were much more sophisticated and honestly admired."."

Saka then said "I think I can say it's the best team we've faced this season. There's a big threat in the offense, and in the midfield, he's turned the ball well and keeps us running"No one likes to run like that," he explained.

In the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Arsenal lost 0–1 to Usman Dembele, allowing the winning goal. In order to head to the final, a victory in the second round of the semifinals on the 8th is desperately needed.

Considering the strong organization led by PSG coach Luis Enrique, Arsenal's victory by more than two goals in Paris is expected to be a difficult task. Nevertheless, Saka seems to have not lost hope yet.

Saka added "It's important to remain calm, but we have something to show. I think I'll prove it on the road to Paris. I'm sure I can turn it aroundIt was difficult to find space, and the opponent placed a large number of people around me and blocked it thoroughly. However, in the second game, we will definitely be able to find a space to attack."

Liverpool fans may be disappointed as Saka picks PSG as the best team and is so wary.

Liverpool recently confirmed its Premier League victory early, showing overwhelming performance in the league. Arsenal have lost both league games against Liverpool this season. It was strong enough, but Saka's choice was PSG. It seems to reflect the fact that Liverpool has not shown any significant performance except for the league this season.

If Arsenal wins the Champions League beyond PSG, which Arsenal is struggling with, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta could rise to the rank of mastermind. This is because Arsenal continues to compete for the championship in the league and has become a strong team that is trying to win the Champions League.

In particular, Arsenal is considered to be a team that can play aggressively against any team in the world. Starting with Saka, he has consistently shown good performance against various European big clubs.

As such, ace Saka's performance may be important for Arsenal to advance to the finals. If you are completely isolated from PSG defense like the first game, it seems difficult to expect a final.
