Jamie Redknapp names the Arsenal star who is 'irreplaceable' after the Gunners climb top of the Premier League with 1-0 win over Fulham

Jamie Redknapp has hailed Bukayo Saka as 'irreplaceable' after Arsenal went top of the Premier League with a 1-0 win over Fulham.

The Sky Sports pundit praised Saka for leading by example during a hard-fought victory at Craven Cottage that sent Mikel Arteta's side back above Manchester City.

Leandro Trossard scored the decisive goal midway through the second half, converting from close range after Gabriel flicked on Saka's corner. It was enough to secure Arsenal's sixth win of the season.

Redknapp reflected that Saka had taken charge when Arsenal struggled for rhythm, arguing that his influence went beyond his technical ability.
