Mikel Arteta was buzzing to see Bukayo Saka in his 18 after three months away from the pitches of the Premier League, and he'll love that Saka quickly marked his return with a 73rd-minute goal.

Former Brighton striker Glen Murray says returning star Bukayo Saka brings "something special" to Arsenal after he scored seven minutes into his first appearance since December. The Gunners beat Fulham 2-1 to maintain their slim hopes of the title. "Arsenal did enough in the first half," Murray told the Football Daily podcast.

A night built around Bukayo Saka ’s long-awaited return from injury, Arsenal ’s superstar winger marked his comeback with a goal as the Gunners ran out 2-1 winners over Fulham. A win that nibbled away at Liverpool ’s hefty margin at the top of the Premier League table, Saka’s moment did far more than secure the points for Mikel Arteta ’s side.
