Aston Villa captain brands Arsenal youngster Saka “liar” over comment concerning his goal against Chelsea

Aston Villa star Jack Grealish jokingly branded Bukayo Saka as a ‘liar’ after the Arsenal ace claimed he meant his lobbed goal against Chelsea.

The 19-year-old put his side 3-0 up against the Blues at the Emirates on Boxing Day after his cross-shot looped over Blues shot-stopper Edouard Mendy.

There was much debate as to whether the teenager meant it, but Saka insisted that his strike was no fluke.

Taking to social media, he tweeted: “Saw him off his line!”

To which his England international team-mate Grealish quipped: “Ur (sic) to funny man! Liar.”
