Let's play Aubamawang
Has 8 Cats 🐈
Agree with most of this. I can't see him matching his best numbers, but he has had more impact recently, particularly on the right. If only he could stay onside when looking along the line, he could have a few more goals already. That finish against City was delightful.Yeah Martinelli was quietly picking up form and somewhat deputising for Saka as best he could. The sentiment unfairly switched wildly on him so it's actually a big shame he's sidelined now.
I also think he was oncourse to matching or bettering his previous best numbers wise.
He's also one of the few players with decent pace in the team, so it does hurt us against teams that don't play deep blocks.
It's also worth remembering how much of our play goes down the right between Ødegaard and Saka, leaving Nelli very isolated on the left. Ode needs to stop drifting right all the time, it's so predictable and easy to defend. It's also why we are so bad at creating chances through the middle this year.
