Emile Smith Rowe will be backed by Arsenal next season

Emile Smith Rowe will be backed by Arsenal next season. He hasn’t featured much this season due to his injuries. Smith Rowe was the joint top scorer for Arsenal the previous season. Arsenal have surely missed his attacking depth in the attacking midfield role. Arteta is backing Smith Rowe just like the way he backed Martinelli after his big injury.

Positives to look at for Emile Smith Rowe

Emile Smith Rowe is still impressing in Arsenal training despite his lack of minutes for the Gunners this season. He has been continuously working hard in the training ground.

That is according to Kaya Kaynak who was speaking on The View From The Clock End Podcast about Smith Rowe situation at the Emirates.

The midfielder hasn’t had many chances to shine under Mikel Arteta in recent months, but the staff at London Colney are still very happy with his progress. He has had a big big injury and still is recovering. He has a bright future ahead of him. It just depends on which club he will be a success.

Indeed, according to Kaynak, Smith Rowe is getting glowing reviews in training, he’s setting personal records in terms of pace and he’s also notably lost weight, with those within Arsenal stating that he’s looking leaner than he ever has before. Granit Xhaka as well lost weight before the start of the season after the advices from Arteta.

He went on to say:-

“We’ve done some stuff on the Smith Rowe situation. He’s come back from the injury and he’s pain free, all the reports from training are positive. He’s lost weight, he’s much leaner than he ever has been before. Smith Rowe is setting personal records in terms of pace and physicality all of those things, he hasn’t had any conversations with Arteta about what he needs to do to be in the team,” 

If Smith Rowe is impressing in training, then perhaps it’s time for Arsenal to give him a chance to shine in pre-season. The midfielder has been starved of opportunities at the Emirates this season. But he’s clearly putting in the work behind the scenes.
