The Angel Gabriel (Martinelli)

Mirth

Beautiful finish. Carlos Vela-esque.

Speedster

He was the biggest disappointment for me. I was on a access course for physio at the time. I took months of that course at a time it was genuinely daft the course could be condensed to 4 A4 pages.

I watched the whole U17's WC vela talent was genuinely insane. Zero interest in football and zero grit. He could have been insane.

Mirth

But also I think Martinelli is at his best when he plays off instinct.

CPM

tazmania It's about finding the right role for him, which it does feel like we're starting to do. Starting LW, especially against teams sitting deep? No. But if he can run into space and just take a couple touches, then we're making the best use of his pace and instinctive play.

Rohit

I am so glad we didn't sell him because there will be a setup which suits him where he will absolutely kill it.

Segway

Absolute beauty of a goal.

est

These days, my eyes tear up ever so slightly, when one of our players actually manages to hold their run and stay onside until the passer has played the ball. Why has this become such a lost art for us?

Wonderful goal. As Birdman would say- put some respeck on Martinelli's name!

flobaba

I love Martinelli. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

Qwiss

Constantly proving the haters wrong.

Sicario2

Great goal and important goal but he’s found his role in the team - super sub. Does not have the concentration or consistency to be a threat over 90 mins. He can be our Ole.

Qwiss

Sicario2 just put your hands up and say "sorry lads, I was completely wrong about Martinelli and I've been an embarrassment to myself on this issue". It'll be easier than having to come up with some nonsense like you've just posted every time he scores.

tazmania

Sicario2 give it a rest mate, he's been great

Sicario2

Qwiss 2 goals doenst change of 2 years of being underwhelming. He’s done well last two games but let’s not get carried away now. Don’t get ahead of yourself lad.

Fair play to him. Definitely more suited to playing central.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

I had a feeling he'd respond in this way. He has that strong-willed mentality and hunger not to let his head drop for long. Great week for him.

And yes, it's finally time to see what he can do at CF at least while Havertz is still out. Rotate with Viktor.

RowJimmy

Martinelli is a fucking warrior.

Big Willie

Big game player if I've ever seen on. Certainly on our team. Him and Saka are generally the ones to do it against the likes of City, Liverpool and United.

Martinelli will prove all his doubters wrong if we utilise him correctly. It's not his fault we like our LW hugging the touchline and covering for the LB's creativity as if the LW is one who inverts as a fullback. I really hope that isn't the plan with Eze by the way. Will be such a shame if it is.

Big Willie

And by the way @Sicario2 just like Madueke, he never gives up and keeps trying (which is something you say you always have time for) but he also scores. Why you hate him, I dunno.

Sicario2

Big Willie you and Qwiss presidents of the Martinelli fan club?

Meatwad

arsenal's #9.

At this point may as well be. It's not like your views on him are a minority. Just kind of annoying that whole sentiment has come from a mis-utillisation of his abilities.

But anyways, keep on keeping on. The haters are going to hate on him and justify their position on him no matter what he does following his instructions.
