WITH Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus Currently aside, the last thing Gunners were supposed to be another forward to throw themselves in the infirmary but when Gabriel Martinelli During this week’s defeat, Carabao Cup against Newcastle United was removed, fans were afraid of the worst.
Gabriel Martinelli joins the injury list
Arsenal’s exhausted front line could have done without losing another esteemed member, leaving Arteta with a lack of options over the coming weeks.
The 23-year-old has scored only seven goals Through 35 Arsenal matches this season, also helping four goals, but in recent weeks he is regularly playing on the right side, hitting Aston Villa and placing Kai Havertz while breaking Man City.
Replaced by Ethan Nwaneri at St. James, the northern London, will hope that they will have enough to continue to challenge Liverpool for the first place in the next nodes – Leicester, West Ham and Nottingham Forest again this month – but fans are understandably frustrated by the frustrated transfers not taken in January.
The impact is not exclusively measurable for goals and assists, and although Martinelli has left a lot that will be desirable with his efforts this season, he is still an important part of the team, bringing speed and balance to the left flank.
He is now put aside, Arsenal’s task becomes scary and has to make Arthta he wants to not sell Emile Smith Rowe last summer.
Arteta has to complain about the sale of Emile Smith Rowe
Fulham will feel that they have secured a coup when signing Smith Rowe last August, Paying of record clubs £ 34 million For a silk midfielder.
Smith Rowe, 24, was a highly respected member of Arsenal’s Wave of Homegrown Quality, but recorded his minutes limited in the last two career campaigns of his Emirates, so he resigned to move to a new beginning.

The injuries did not help his case, but it was clear that Smith Rowe had to leave since he had not earned enough opportunities in the Premier League anywhere.
However, it can be a wonderful and painful thing backwards, and it’s frustrating to see that an English playmaker could play a big role for Arsenal this term, enjoying a lot of football and before Martinelli hit a fitness.
Sky Sports Pundit Jamie Carragher has once said That Smith Rowe may be the best player in English football when he ran with a ball in front of his leg, while his 10 goals from 21 starts 2021/22 pointed out the goalkeepers in his skill.
According to FBREF -uSmith Rowe ranked among the first 2% Premier League that attack midfielders and wings this season to finish passing and the first 7% for a progressive pass 90, a perfectly illustrating stylish approach that would be perfect for Athetin’s current system – after all, after all , they played before her.
The passage is considered progressive if the distance between the starting point and the next touch is at least 10 meters closer to the objective of the opponent or any completed passage to the penalty area.
Sofascore also records If he had missed only two big chances in the Cottagers league, placing four, emphasizing the clinical advantage that Arteta so desperately craves.
Smith Rowe is not a striker, whose position remains the smallest concern for Arthit’s side, but he is a dynamic and domestic attacking threat, she is earlier appreciated as “joy to watch” From his former manager.
Martinelli’s recent injury increases the failure in strengthening the front line this winter, serving as a great reminder that Smith Rowe could play an important role of Gunners this term, but instead addresses his store elsewhere.
