Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta believes he must protect youngster Bukayo Saka.
The winger was once again in fine form as he got the only goal for the Gunners in a 1-1 draw against Benfica in the Europa League.
And Arteta says he will continue to protect the 19-year-old.
"I think he is in a great moment," Arteta said of the England international to reporters post-game.
"He is full of confidence, he has been really important in the recent results, his form is the highest probably that it has been since I have been here and he has been really consistent.
"He needs to keep going and doing what he is doing because at the moment he is a big part of the team."
