Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka says he's influenced by former Gunners favourite Alexis Sanchez growing up .
The Hale End academy graduate, 21, has spearheaded the Gunners' shock title charge after accumulating 10 goals and nine assists over the course of the campaign for Mikel Arteta's side, who lead Manchester City at the summit of the Premier League by five points.
He told The Evening Standard : "I can't come out here and start complaining that I'm getting fouled. It doesn't make sense, I'm not going to get anywhere with it. Arsenal have had the meetings they need to have with the referees and stuff like that. I feel like we just need to take it from there and see where that gets us.
"The way I play, I'm always going to attract contact. I watched Alexis Sanchez a lot growing up. He was a special player, I loved many things about him. That's one of the qualities he had he always got up, fought to the end. You could say I took that from him, but at the same time I have my own goals and ambitions. That's also [part of] my drive."
