Martinelli certainly has the movement and desire to be a good striker. And at 18 and already a decent size already he will get bigger and stronger.

He scores them. He makes them. Nice. Martinelli is proving to be quite a prospect.

Good to see Ceballos get his reward for a fine game so far.

Great move, lovely reverse pass from AMN but brilliant brilliant play from martinelli! And Ceballos shows some hunger and gets the job done.

Eddie Nketiah has been doing well at Leeds, but the emergence of Martinelli is bad news for him in terms of making it at Arsenal.

Only plus for Eddie is they're different types of striker, but yes you're right. Nothing much Martinelli can't do, and pace to burn.

Just like I hoped that Bendtner would be but sadly not to be (except in his own mind)

Tierney is really good at first time crosses. Very accurate and it opens things up at pace. Super to watch.

Deserved round of applause for Willock. Looks a really accomplished young player, was superb tonight.

Thing is he knows when to hit a cross in it’s not just the delivery. He ensures it’s always when the defence hasnt had the chance to set itself if you know what I mean

Crazy decision to bring on Aubameyang. If he picks up an injury, Emery should be put up against a wall and shot.

Ten minutes gives Reiss (who has looked much better tonight ) a break and Aubameyang a quick run out

What are the odds. Ten minutes

If it was half an hour I’d understand the concern but it’s being played at snails pace

Why risk him is my thinking. Spose he isn't made of glass is he, as you were.

Özil could certainly learn a lot from Martinelli about work rate and pressing. He is a livewire

Stretch his legs

Moral boost for the kids

Keeps him fit

It’s static.

If he’s not learnt that at 30 years I’d suggest there’s not going to be a lightbulb moment for Mesut :laughing7:

I'd suggest he'll get quite the stretch of the legs making up for our defending in the premership with his goals all season long...

Loving Martinelli tonight. Even looked really dangerous from the wide left position. He says he models his game on his idol Ronaldo. Plenty of similarities in style.
Nelson, Tierney, Ceballos and Willock all very good as well. And more games in the legs for Bellerin and holding

That normally doesn’t seem to stop us conceding goals. :icon_wink:

Standard were very poor but what an enjoyable game to watch.

Martinelli scored two absolute crackers. I can't remember the last time I saw a header as good as that from an Arsenal player (perhaps the one he scored against Forest :laughing7: ). If he meant to direct it as he did (and not just get his head on it) it was a genuine worldclass finish. The second was pretty darn good as well. The dink across goal to set-up Ceballo's goal was also delightful.

Willock looks a player every time I see him. That ability to travel with the ball (as Hartson put it) is fantastic and his box-to-box energy can really add something to our midfield.

Tierney's crossing is what we have been missing for years from a left back.

Excellent all round run-out.

His goals were great but off the ball he was sensational with his movement and running, he was always looking to get himself into a position to receive the ball in a dangerous area.

How much money will Saka, him and Nelson save us ?

Really surprised Emery says he doesn't see him as a CF because everything about him.........his pace, movement, bravery and finishing....... suggests that is exactly what he should be.

But did you see him on the left? He was only out there for 10 minutes but caused equal amounts of havoc with his pace and touch and almost had 2 assists.

Great win & a real optimism about some of these young players.

I just wish our teams would try & put some of these teams to the sword.
