Chris Sutton has claimed Arsenal star Bukayo Saka is the best right winger in the world, as Leeds United face the unenviable task of stifling him on Saturday.
Saka will head into the Leeds game fresh off the back of registering a goal and an assist in England's 2-0 victory over Ukraine on Sunday.
The England international has scored 12 goals and contributed 10 assists in 28 league games for the Premier League leaders this season, and Sutton believes no other right winger is above him at this moment.

Sutton wrote in his Daily Mail column: "Try to name a better right winger in the world this season than Bukayo Saka and I think you will struggle. When debating the best left winger, a few contenders can crop up in conversation. There is Kylian Mbappe at PSG, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia at Napoli, Vinicius Junior at Real Madrid, and Marcus Rashford at Manchester United.
"But Saka is winning the battle on the right. Mohamed Salah has not been the same footballing force for Liverpool this season. Riyad Mahrez is incredibly talented for Manchester City but I would rank Saka ahead of him.
"And I won’t be taking any suggestions of Antony seriously — the United man probably has Saka posters hanging on his bedroom wall!"
