It's time for Martinelli to get some CF starts, especially with Eze/Trossard at LW who like to drift inside.

FEBravo let’s hope he can prove it tomorrow!

Dom

The roggenmuhme at Newcastle has looked surprisingly good and seems a fair bit better than Sesko and Gyokeres. I'm surprised we were never in for him, though I suppose he is quite Havertz-like.

Good shout 😄

🤣

Sicario2

He plays like he has imposter syndrome. Thats his biggest problem.

Right now as long as we are winning him not scoring is not that much of a big deal…

FEBravo benched for Mason Mount as CF 😂

Sicario2

I hope this is the beginning of a beautiful love story with Arsenal. He will go into the Palace game with a bit less pressure and it could make the world of difference in terms of not over thinking his shots or positioning.

Qwiss

Sicario2 I think he'll still feel the pressure against Palace but hopefully confidence is up and if he scores in that match then I think he'll go off and we'll see him really hit his form.

Looking far sharper now. Got more of a spring in his sprints

USArsenal

Well, we thought he did after the Leeds game also, so lets just wait and see how he continues.. Great to see him bag a couple though. He needed it

IBL

I thought this was his best game yet for us - worked extremely hard but was also tidy with the ball, kept pocession well and pulled their defence everywhere. For both goals he was well positioned, fully deserved too.

He was also sharper and seemed more balanced, hopefully a sign of reaching good fitness levels, the goals should boost his confidence going forward.

lorddulaarsenal

IBL definitely in better condition

Starting to see higher intensity with his sprinting

Must be tough playing against a determined big ball of muscle powering towards you at speed

Segway

He was great, again, but of course the goals make a huge difference to how he's perceived. It also helped that the defenders weren't given carte blanche to go to town with him by the referee as we've seen in the PL.

USArsenal

It was great to see his interview with Big Meeks and talking with Thierry. He roasted Meeks a couple times, and showed some great personality. Thierry seemed all aboard the Vik train and even offered to give him his number (phone). Lol.

flobaba

He's got a huge personality. Saw quite a few interviews he did while he was at Sporting and he came across as very self confident, without being an egotistical asshole.

USArsenal

flobaba

Up until now, the only interviews i have seen with him, he has been a lot more serious and less animated, but there were only a couple that I saw. This was the first where he sorta let loose and got some banter in. Good to see.

lorddulaarsenal

That’s a Scandinavian trait!

Gunner89

He was in the Isak zone in the summer where he didn't show up for pre-season at Sporting

Like Isak, he's still working his way to peak fitness, though he's a bit ahead because he got his move earlier

Doesn't help though that unlike Isak, he's having to start virtually every PL/CL game till Kai is back

Meatwad

wouldn't playing more games in fact help him get to peak fitness.

Not in the ideal manner

An unconditioned player being asked to start every major game without a proper pre-season will take time to get into rhythm, would have been far better if havertz had not got injured

That's why pre-season exists and that's why players playing through extra matches in the WC year like getting to the semis or finals get extended time off and are typically eased into the squad

Isak has been at liverpool for 2 months and it's the same for him
