FOOTBALL What has made Saka a better wide player? Southgate reveals
The youngster continued with an impressive performance for England on Sunday.
"First of all, I think you have to recognise what he's been doing. The consistency he's shown at his age and at this level is something rare to see. He's taken it with normality," said Arteta.
"If you ask me if he has room for improvement, I would say: 'Yes - a lot.' He's never satisfied, he always wants more, and he can still do a lot of things better and more efficiently.
The Spanish manager has started the England international in every one of Arsenal's league fixtures this season.
There are also ongoing talks over a new deal to extend the contract, which expires in 2024.
Meanwhile, former Arsenal defender Kolo Toure has explained why the club must offer Saka a long-term contract.
"First advice to Arsenal is to make sure Bukayo Saka is signed for 10 years," said the Ivorian, who was part of the Invincibles, the last Gunners side to lift the league title in 2004.
"Arsenal made a few mistakes, in my opinion, when they had homegrown players or key players that really love the club and they let them go.

Newcastle United defender sends Bukayo Saka a fascinating message
Bukayo Saka got a fascinating message from Kieran Trippier after the Arsenal forward scored and assisted in their impressive win against Ukraine on Sunday.

Only Manchester City’s Erling Haaland and Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane have more goals and assists combined than Saka in the top flight this season.
