What market? The offer from Newcastle that might arrive?
Yes, exactly.
Weāll see if it actually shows up. If we sell him for .73 Ramsdales and manage to reinvest that money properly it would show me that weāre actually learning how to leverage the loan system.
Nope. Luck basically.
Didnāt do much last season after the injury. Now he might come good. Just wish people would stop going overboard on him.
Basically heās potentially decent but not convincing by a long way. Got till January to find some real form when opportunity comes for me. Otherwise your definitely looking at a loan out.
Arteta has mismanaged him. Iām convinced Arteta doesnāt like or trust a player like Martinelli. Heād rather have a jobber like Willian or drone like Xhaka.
Yeah to a degree you can argue that but he had games and didnāt do much.
Canāt just hide behind this anti Arteta stuff. Itās clear as day heās nothing special yet.
Lots of energy but nobody even knows his best position yet.
Heās impact player at best so far.
January 2020:
Okay, all the injuries is really unfortunate but still.
Yeah I want to buy into the hype, mainly because there is a serious lack of forward talent out there, but have so far seen nothing from Martinelli to justify it. Aside from that goal against Chelsea, which wasnāt even that special, he really hasnāt done anything.
Whilst the squad is a bit of a mess there is definitely more to it than that, it will be really interesting to see what he does this season. Big for him to prove himself.
Itās a big year for him tbh, if he stays healthy and canāt solidfy himself in our team then weāll have to accept heās unlikely to be what we hoped when he burst onto the scene.
Treated badly they said, starts the first game
Arteta obviously just starting the youngāuns to save himself from persecution.
Visionary
Got a start but sadly didnāt make the most of it, pretty ordinary night for him.
He needs a loan
Its all a chain reaction. Team is built around Xhaka, Xhaka gives us nothing in the middle of the pitch defensively so the wings have to constantly track back and defend. Heās being instructed to play like Auba. Hug the touch line ect. Plenty of times he could have been on the end of crosses if heād been given more freedom and we had a better tactical system in place.
Itās the least of our worry admittedly but this guy is never leading the line for us, simple as that to be honest. Living off that Chelsea goal
Just very raw this kid. Needs a totally different set up to ours thatās for certain.
