AIR TO THE THRONE

KOLO TOURE says Bukayo Saka has to become Michael Jordan and Thierry Henry rolled into one if Arsenal are to lift the title.

The former Arsenal and Manchester City star believes City are the favourites because of the momentum coming into the clash at the Etihad.

Nevertheless, he feels Saka is the man who still has the ability to turn the clash - and the entire season - on its head.

All the England international has to do is grow up.

"He has been carrying that team very well this season in pressure moments," said Toure. "He was a kid player, but in the coming games he has to show that age is nothing.

"He has unbelievable talent and he has a desire. He loves the club and I am sure he can really push the team up."

The 21-year-old has been at the club since he was seven, but Toure firmly believes the final weeks of the season can be his time. Or "money time as the former Ivory Coast star calls it, likening Saka to basketball legend Jordan (top right).
