Arsenal: Gabriel Martinelli flaw exposed as Thierry Henry provides solution for major weakness Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has suggested that Gabriel Martinelli needs to improve his decision making to help ease the attacking burden on Bukayo Saka.
"You're not playing your 1v1, you're not playing your 1v1, I would say 10 seconds after, maybe a bit more than 10 seconds after look at where your winger was in a 1v1 situation against Man United and if you press pause now look at where he is [on the halfway line].
Furthermore, the Frenchman used two examples involving Martinelli in recent games, stating the Brazilian’s choice of selection in the final third is a reason for the Gunners failing to create clear cut chances from open play.
The Frenchman was a guest on Sky Sports’ Monday Night football programme and ahead of the Bournemouth vs West Ham clash, he delivered an in-depth analysis of his former club’s recent struggles in front of goal.
At the weekend Mikel Arteta’s side were held to a frustrating goalless draw at home to Everton as they failed to take advantage of Premier League leaders Liverpool dropping points in the title race.
