Bukayo Saka has stated that Arsenal does not care about their detractors as they seek to end the club’s 22-year wait for Premier League title success.
The England winger scored the winner for the Gunners at Brighton on Wednesday night, putting his team seven points clear at the top of the league.
Saka commented on the outside noise following the statement victory at the Amex: “We don’t listen to those nonsense. I don’t see it and don’t read it. It provides no benefits, Reported By Football London.
“All we want is to keep going our way and win. “Whether we play beautiful football or score from set-pieces, people will talk about whatever they want to see. “We just want to win games, and we’re nearing the finish of the season.”
Arsenal’s last Premier League match in five and a half weeks will be against Everton at home next weekend.

Crucially, they play before City travels to West Ham, allowing them to construct a 10-point lead at the top if they defeat the Toffees.
Saka is now confident that Arsenal can cross the finish line, saying, “We are clearly generating momentum. We’ve now won three big games [after surrendering points at Brentford and Wolves].
“We have got some massive games coming up before the next international break and we are excited and feeling confident.”
When asked to recount the moment the Gunners discovered Manchester City had dropped points against Nottingham Forest, the 24-year-old attacker couldn’t contain his excitement.
He kept going: “As we went to clap the fans they burst out into another roar and I could tell something had gone on in the other games and then Mikel came and told me that City had drawn 2-2.
