LAST TIME WITH THE KNOCK I PROMISE. LOVE YOU ALL XXXXX
The knock is fine… although I’d prefer a different one
What you are trying to say is that unless we have a player that can give us at least 21 goals per season, we can’t win the league.

UNAI emery played Martinelli at ST/CF and I think he scored 1 in every two or 3 games in that position before he got injured. I think Martinelli is a better CF than JESUS and NKETIAH 🔥
Remember when Henry was a winger...🤔
When Trossard is on the pitch as their false 9, we actually kind of already see Martinelli take over more of the striker role while Trossard tends to drift wide on the left side and switch places with Martinelli on the attack.
@@nabeel426 okay mate sure he did 🙄
@@nabeel426 He actually did if you can recall last season when both Jesus and Eddie were out injured.
I've noticed that many times, especially last season.
My sentiments
@nabeel426
But isn't that what a false 9 is?
Dropping deep into space or drifting about - going wide or entering midfield - as opposed to a "traditional" striker like Haaland, Toney & Osimhen (although these 3 don't always play like that).
Also, the video title said "striker", as opposed to false 9 (just started watching it. Lol) & it seems to me that Martinelli has always had the predatory instincts of a striker
The idea of Martinelli being a striker has been a theme for many Arsenal fans. But in my opinion he is too good right now at LW to move position, his strength is his movements, take ons, and pace. Its all you can ask for a winger, and i think Martinelli prefers LW as well, but maybe a slight tweak by giving him more freedom, with a left midfielder/fullback hugging the touchline can work wonders for him
I think we have the personnel already for a great front five, they just need to interchange more obviously in games, especially the 8/10s.
Martinelli-Jesus-Saka
Havertz-Odegaard
The base so everybody knows where to be if we switch back to default, wide wingers to stretch a tight defense
Changing with:
Jesus-Martinelli-Saka
Odegaard-Havertz
If we need more running power in behind and we need to free Odegaard to find it (he's been too rigid recently, perhaps a freer role like in 2021/22 could work).
Changing with:
Martinelli-Havertz-Saka
Jesus-Odegaard
If we need a long ball option up top to escape the press or score some crosses against a low block and technical players behind the mop op in tight spaces.
I'm not going to lie, that knock at the beginning of every video. gets me every damn time
Waiting now a video on how we found a new left back in harvertz
Or Ramsdale ?
I'd as soon see Havertz as our new left off.
Mbappe Martinelli Saka front three. That's scary
These uploads really carrying us through the international break 🙏
I think this could be our future with him being so similar to Alexis Sanchez finishing wise and with the same tendency to drift wide.
"so similar to Alexis Sanchez finishing wise"
Did you watch Brasil game? He played as a LW. Brasil played 442, with Martinelli on the left, Raphinha on the right, Vini jr and Rodrygo the same as they play in Real Madrid, closer to the gol, alternating positions, as the 2 strikers. But, I can asure you, martinelli did not came close to a false 9 that game, specialy when Vini jr, already in the first half got injured, and got sub. After that, Martinelli continued in the LW, now Rodrygo became 10 and Diniz put Joao Pedro from Brighton as a full 9.
It's clickbait content, what do you expect? I've seen this shit all over Twitter, but as you said he was playing on the left in a 442. He does not have the required attributes to play striker with his back to the goal.
😂😂😂you guys didn't watch the game only the highlights.... Martinelli played as a striker
@@justmax528forget watching the game his heat map showed he played on the left
I didn't say he played there the whole match, I said he started there, which he did - then talked about it more widely
An 8 minute technical analysis of Martinelli and an expansion on league trends... If you think this is clickbait content, optimised for "hits"... you haven't spent enough time on RUclips 😂👍@@svevovandersmissen2067
I'm an Arsenal fan too btw! In the beginning of your video re Xg vs actual you said only Kane was close to Nelli' in terms of outperforming Xg - why when you have Haalands stats right there on the screen LOL
Xg 28 Ag 36 pretty significant amount of goals beyond the expected from a more significant starting point. Kane was obviously better percentage wise (30 from 21) -> it is surely harder to outscore predicted goals if the amount is already higher than most strikers bag in a league season.
Outperforming 9.3 is infinitely easier and saying 50% to represent 6 more goals (you may as well round up or down as there aren't fractions of goals in the game) whilst impressive in its own right can't be used to compare with top strikers.
Perhaps you could've shown us the wingers xG to make the case he could make the transition based on how much more effective he is in his position as a goalscorer.
Just a thought 💡😎
Alex, you have a way of putting across the information...appreciative!
Thanks!
Honestly when I watch him I just see a raw version of Henry. I think he can do it. Especially if he puts on a little more muscle and gets stronger.
A 'target man' no.9 shouldn't be seen as a black and white decision - i.e. we'd always play with that person up front in a particular formation. However, we absolutely need that specialist option in the armoury and there are options out there.
Bang on
He's got heart and he's got quality. He'd be an outstanding waterboy if Arteta said he needed him to be. I say give it a shot. If it doesn't work out, he's still brilliant on the wing.
At this level, and especially with how Arsenal play, we need a proper striker who has played there since he started kicking a ball and is constantly smelling those crosses and passes at the right moment as that's what great strikers that decide games do. We are already seeing signs of struggling to break teams down and that's when you need to be able to smash a cross in and have a striker who can predict when and where that happens. We can't gamble on Martinelli having a good game where he links up, makes one-two plays and scores every game as half the time the team won't click and we won't score goals.
A proper center forward is what Arsenal need, Martinelli is great but absolutely not the solution in my eyes.
I actually made him my main striker on my FM24 save, he works wonders at the front I had to move GJ9 to LW lol
People should stop this nonsense, because of he can score lots of goals from a wide position doesn't mean he'll work as a striker, he's positional sense is amazing and hes a very good finisher but i don't see him being strong enough to hold up the ball or tuggle with defenders, we don't need another Walcott situation, i think he has the potential to be an elite goal scoring winger
Yes the shame they said about Henry,same position and swap to ST and he didnt score goals hey, thanks Wenger
All of us hailed Aubameyang as the best striker since Henry. Aubameyang was never the guy to hold up defenders. The attributes all 3 strikers have in common are blistering pace, perfect timing of runs, and perfect finishing. Ok Martinelli could improve on his timing of runs, but the other attributes are there already.
I beg to differ, Martinelli is way too different from Walcott. He is stronger, better ball possession, more skilled & just as fast. Martinelli would do better for us as a striker than Jesus & Nketiah are doing... I see glimpses of VanPersie & Alexis in Martinelli if he stabilises as a striker.....more than 20 goals per season kinda striker.
Havertz is artetas solution for breaking up low blocks, our false 9 striker drops back to recieve the ball and havertz goes forward and tries to win headers etc etc
That finish for Brazil was pure instinct. I guarentee you that pass from vini wasn’t for martini but for whoever was coming in top of the box
I wish your videos were much longer. I love them so much😢
Congratulations on 50K SUBS!! Been here since
I have always said Martinelli should be moved central. I see Henry when I see Martinelli and I think he has the ceiling for it, I dont think we need that power forward.
I think there amount of detail that goes into preparation by the opposition to nullify your threat means that you have to have a dozen ways of playing that keeps the opponent guessing. It will rarely be about one player playing this or that position. It will be about the movement of the team as one organism and here MA still has a lot to do to get us to the level of synergy that mancity have. That said, you still need the tip of the spear and for that we have martinelli and saka
SPECIAL VIDEO ON A SPECIAL PLAYER FROM A SPECIAL RUclipsR!
Big up dg
My guy
Gabby can push on to be great kinda reminds me of Di Maria the only thing he can improve on is final delivery he could have 2 -3 assist a match if he picked out his targets well but everything I like his game
I've been saying play him down the middle all along, we bought him as a CF, he was a CF when we bought him.
Huge congrats on 50k. Best Arsenal content online.
Appreciate it!
I think Gabriel Jesus and Martinelli compliment each other so much as they can both play each others positions to an exceptional level. At the beginning of last season i saw them interchangeing so many times woth ease and we'd sometimes see Jesus down the wing and Martinelli doen teh middle and i think that was part of Arteta's plan too. But then all these injuries started happening and i havent seen it as much since.
that knock in the right audio channel is diabolical lmao
A couple people picking up on Martinelli not playing at CF the entire game -- I didn't say he did. I said he STARTED at CF. 🙂
I'm just here to appreciate your scriptwriting skills (if you write any) on this topic. I think everyone knows that Martinelli is not that viable to play as a nine, yet you still managed to discussed it in an 8 minutes long video very well. Good work 👍
Trying a front three of esr, martinelli, saka would be a dream when jesus cant play
What I think you are highlighting is that Arsenal have options. Gabi, Jesus and Saka are awesome but there is another player in the mix and that is Trossard. He allows Gabi to come more central whilst also providing more options. Similarly he provides options out on the wing when Jesus has blessed the centre. I know it isn't fashionable to say it but Eddie adds another dimension which arsenal can use to break down teams. His profile is different again. All that provides Michel with a lot of options and all of them are quite scary if you don't play forArsenal. Arsenal are City's serious challenge this year and I am looking forward to January when the next phase of recruits makes us even better.
Liverpool too,,Salah ,Diaz ,jota,gakpo,nunes
We can have Martinelli on left,Trosard on the right, then Saka on free role where he is more effective than sticking wide..then I guarantee a minimum of 3 goals per match
Nketiah was supposed to be just that...but inorder to have a traditional number 9 you need an Assist king in the team... either as a full back as TAA or Midfielder like De Bruyne don't think we have that in our team right now. Maybe Trossard or Viera.
There's an old interview with arteta where he says about Martinelli potentially playing CF not striker. I think we need to see him as a IF or inverted winger, he often gets pushed to the byline and gets isolated which is frustrating
With the upcoming "Wenger Offside" Rule. Speedy strikers might be back on trend. not this season but next season Martinelli would be a beast.
06:00 is ridiculous
Martinelli was brought in as a centre forward and emery deployed him there on a few occasions.
Finally someone explained why traditional n9 MIGHT be more suitable without words like "prefer" or "we need a killer".
Martinelli played cf for us when he joined
I’ve been calling Nelli for ST for yearssss
That stat about 5-15% possession … where did you get that? 👏 I don’t understand how you put out such detailed and well researched content so often.
Martinelli would make a class striker, just maybe not in this team with all those low blocks. Feels like he would be wasted there for us
nahhh that knock caught me off guard 💀
That boy is special, I really think he has a great career ahead of him albeit he’s free from any major injuries.
Trossard is the best finisher
Agreed
Thats why we needed Mudryk
The luis Suarez comparison is a bit out there. Suarez was so similar to R9. Martinelli is more like nilmar, eerily similar. Although Martinelli has a higher ceiling.
Nelli would be so good ST cause he’s relentless, skilled and robust
I think if you want absolute carnage you put him on the left and tell Him to do his thing.
not the knock effect being on the same side as my door
I always thought Martinelli would be an awesome no.9. He reminds me of Suarez a little.
I really think GM is having much fun at LW lets not make it complicated😅❤ARSENAL
Someone said Mikel will change Arsenal like Pep did with City.. I don't think so. The way Mikel sees a talent is not like Pep or Wenger.. Look at Kai and Nketial, White, Zinchenko .. how can Arsenal win the championship with these players? Mikel doesn't stimulate his players to attack and score goals.. Look at Ashley Cole and Henry,Pires.. they all rush forward to score.
You left Jesus too,partey ,joghino,elneny,viera, even odegard
He could be a wonderfull forward. With him playing striker it also opens up opportunities for nelson, smith row and possibly any of the wingers that could be promoted from the academy.
I also remember some comment back during our unai emery days saying that martinelli may be our very own ronaldo.
At the time, i simply chalked it as new player hype but now im seing that maybe that future isn't so farfetched at all
ESR and Nelson aren't good enough for us currently
Would Giroud be a shout? Send Nketiah & Partey out (it hurts saying that) Maybe even a DM in the summer?
Yup. Here we go 😂
Martinelli started as a striker during the era of emery
*looks on in Osimhen* 👀
Yeah I am all for martinally in the middle/ left to middle with trossard in there for the zigzag
I want Osimehn.
MAN YOU GOTTA STOP WITH THAT KNOCK AT THE BEGINNING OF THE VIDEO. I JUMP EVERYTIME
I promise that's the last time! 😂
Sorry, the XG comparison doesn't really stack up for me. This needs to be looked at in a much more granular level. A true striker will be scoring chances that they would be expected to put away on a very regular basis. But missing those chances and scoring the odd 'worldy' could skew the figures. Martinelli is developing really well, but with our current tactical set up would he really work as a 9. I would compare him in style more to Henry, who certainly wasn't a traditional number 9 type player. In which case he is probably in his best position, starting wide and cutting in, he is a incredible weapon out wide but out style means we need a more typical 9 or a Jesus style blend of 9/10.
I don't want Martinelli to be our new striker, I want the club to buy an ACTUAL striker rather than trying to experiment with young players in different positions they lack experience in. I love Gabi but I think the whole idea that this will solve our striker situation is naive. If we want to win major silverware we need a Toney or an Osimhen.
Won't happen till the summer. Arsenal are up against the FFP wall which we dare not break with what is going on with City, Chelsea and Everton.
Missed a total sitter at 0-0 for Brazil seemingly 😢. That may scar
Been saying this for a while
I love martinelle played up front if Jesus deploy to the wings
PLease can youtalk about Osimhen joining Arsenal. You actually touched on something I have been thinking about and I felt we are not yet. We need someone like Osimhen.
To me Martinelli is a mixture of CR7 & R9. So he can play as a WF or main striker
He played on the left did anyone watch the game?
I said he started there, he then went to left 👍
Victor Osimhen? Just throwing it out there
Dont know if Martinelli will be the future CF, Jesus and Ødegaard are great facilitators, along with Trossard. Jesus is so good at the things he do that it would be a shame to ask him to hold the line like Haaland does.
Also, Haaland is a damn freight train in these clips
The argument about what type of CF is required is exactly why Osimhen would be a dream, providing power as well as movement and interplay. An expensive signing, but it would undoubtedly ignite Arsenal’s attack to the next level.
he was lethal when emery played him there
Might work. Kid is willing and got potential
Bit like son
If we get a fast silky winger like Martinelli in the next transfer window, I’m all for trying Martinelli as a 9. However, moving him there right now might stunt his growth as a winger.
Just buy Osimhen
Please, let’s bring in Victor Osimhen!!!!
Put saka on the left. Jesus on the right and marinelli at CF
"What knock FX?" *KNOCK* "FUCK!!"
😂
Pronounced Haaland like a champ! One of the few brits who ever did
Lets gooooo
We need to pay Brighton what they want for Ferguson
Martinelli about to pull an Henry.
Arsenal going to be deducted points before man city and chelsea hillarious news
Martineli must play no.9 and Gabriel go to the winger
Been saying this for the last three seasons now . He should be played through the middle . Also needs to stop taking corners and get him in the box getting on the end of those corners
Mmmm his crosses are pretty trash. Might be a good option. My biggest interest though - Havertz at left back 👀
I like the idea of Martinelli as an inside forward. He could be our primary goal scorer rather without being a striker, pre 30s Ronaldo-esque (in profile not goal numbers probably unfortunately. This gets the benefits of having the best finisher at the club closer to goal without sacrificing the other aspects a striker could have.
In Havertz we have a truly unique player in that he can be a striker when we go forwards an a midfielder when we defend. So the big money transfer Id go for would be a touchline left winger to get Martinelli infield playing off of Havertz or Jesus, with Odegaard behind them as more of aa midfielder than second striker.
Or you know, I'd take Mbappe if he didn't fancy Madrid
All Hail the Almighty Algorithm 🔥
Just get Osimhen......Our attacks are very predictable, Attmidf to winger to Attmdf to winger till space opens up is why our Xg cant win a trophy this season.
we bought him as a Striker not a Winger
Pele 2 ❤
I think we’d be better off swapping Jesus and Havertz around
Why would we play Martinelli at striker when he is so good at LW?
He has played this position for Arsenal before so it's not like we've never seen it before. Some of us have been calling for this for a while now
Arsenal's problem is not a 9,but a 10. We somehow lack that creative player who could possibly create something out of nothing
Odegaard is that he just needs to learn how to deal with being tightly marked
You see him more in that area when Timber returns
I wish I could share a screenshot of my tweet where I opined that Martinelli will eventually be a CF here. He has scored some goals that just sticks out as vintage CF goals. We just need to get an elite LW, a creative number 8, and a more creative FB and our attack will be treble winning level. I hope Arteta realizes this soon.
lol you never said that 😂
Timber can be that fullback and we can move odegaard to the 8
