Superb footballer

In our view, Gabriel Martinelli is one of the best young forwards in the world and is a brilliant player for Arsenal.

The 21-year-old has established himself as a key figure at Arsenal and is one of the first names on the teemsheeet when he is fit and available.

Martinelli was sensation for Arsenal against Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium today, especially in the first half.

Arsenal have a real gem in Martinelli, who will only get better in the coming years under manager Mikel Arteta.

After all, he is only 21 years of age at the moment.
