The North Londoners' star boy then capped a positive week with a goal against Wolves after just five minutes, stooping to head in from Declan Rice's cross.
Saka celebrated in style, miming a signature to the travelling Gunners faithful.
It was a welcome goal that could springboard Arsenal's title push ahead of the run-in and for Saka, the header ended a 15-match goalless streak - the longest in his career so far.
