Bukayo Saka brilliance helps Arsenal extend lead at the top as West Ham suffer blow at the bottom - Premier League hits and misses

It's a measure of Bukayo Saka's performance that, even coming off at half-time, he finished the match with twice as many chances created to his name as any other player on the pitch.

In his first start since the cup final, the captain-for-the-day was electric. A twist and turn which left Raul Jimenez on his backside summed it up: he was too much for this Fulham team to handle.

His cross for Viktor Gyokeres' opener was spot-on; his finish for his goal oozed confidence and quality.

Any concerns about Arsenal's open-play threat have been quashed with the return to fitness of their talisman.

Their failure to add to the scoreline after he went off underlined the point - although buoyed by the headstart he'd given them, Gyokeres and Riccardo Calafiori could easily have added further goals.

At one point in that second half, Arsenal fans reprised their 'Saka and Emile Smith Rowe' song from a few years ago, showing their appreciation for the now Fulham attacker when he went off with an injury.

Two talents from Hale End. But Star Boy Saka has turned into a leader of this team.
