Gabriel Martinelli is having a season to remember and the cherry on top was his outrageous weak foot finishing in the Brazilian training camp.
Martinelli has scored 5 goals and given 2 assists throughout the current premier league season.
Mikel Arteta surely had done a great job to refine the talent of the Brazilian winger.
Martinelli plays on the left-wing side for Arsenal, however, he can also operate in the midfield.
Months back, Arteta appreciated Martinelli’s mentality to fight for his place.
When he wasn’t playing, was all the time in my office and every time showing me on the pitch how wrong I was.”
said Arteta via Football London.
And, (from) the moment we agreed that he was ready to do it, the way he has improved. The way he is helping the team and still the room for improvement he has is phenomenal.
“He’s just a sad boy (when he’s not playing). He loves what he does. He’s so eager to do whatever it takes for him to play that he’s all the time there. He is pushing you and giving you the right reasons to give him more minutes.
“It’s just a joy to watch the freedom and personality that he plays with.”
Arsenal fans are enjoying one of their best starts in the years as they will head towards Christmas while staying on top of the table.
In a year, if you look at the game that he played here a year ago and today, it’s just incredible how fast they grow,”
said Arteta.
They mature, they recognise situations, execution level, the understanding and even physically he looks a different player.”
Martinelli’s importance in the Brazilian squad
Martinelli is best known for his ability to cut inside from the left and favor his strong right foot for a strike.
However, his latest training clip shows his weak foot strength.
Surrounded by great attackers like Neymar, Vinicius jr, and other quality Brazilian players, Martinelli surely produced an amazing strike.
He surely has to fight for his place in the Brazilian team but his striker surely proves the quality he possesses.
