I remember this as well.When I said arteta doesn’t rate him I was told it’s all in my head... he definitely doesn’t.
I'm sure Mikel has his reasons for picking Willian -not obvious to us ofcourse.

I knew he didn’t. People finding excuses as to why he doesn’t bring him on... please save me. Pre injury it was the exactly same thing and there was no Willian then.I remember this as well.

Well he has no problem rushing back the players he does rate or over using ESR. I don’t buy it personally.It’s not that he doesn’t rate him. I just feel he doesn’t think he’s ready yet and doesn’t feel he can rely on him.
By this stage last season Martinelli had 10 goals and 4 assists. He wasn't even starting PL games until December, first EL start in October, so he had an instant impact relatively speaking in quite a short period. Helped us massively in the EL, scored vital goals vs West Ham and Chelsea. Even made an impact this season in his first few starts after injury. But he isn't ready? Man really sick of Arteta.
What?! He's probably over played him if anything... We can only field 10 outfield players! He opted for Willian as sub over him today... Hardly cause for concern. This place has lost it!I am a little concerned about this situation with Arteta, can only hope he is being overly cautious due to the injuries.
Just another avenue to try attack Arteta with.Why are people so quick to jump on Arteta for this? He's started Martinelli several times now since he's come back from injury, and he hasn't exactly set the world alight. He's huffed and puffed, but hasn't shown a lot of quality, which is to be expected as he's still a kid and very raw, as well as coming back from an injury.
People's expectations for this kid are way to high, I've no doubt he will be a really good player, but just let him be.
No one said the first 11 but bringing on Willian every time who does nothing makes 0 sense. When managers rate players they can’t wait to give them minutes.Just another avenue to try attack Arteta with.
This lad has and will be given games to prove himself.
Can't just walk back into the first 11.
I'm fairness Willian had his best 45 mins for us when he came on last week and everyone here said it.No one said the first 11 but bringing on Willian every time who does nothing makes 0 sense. When managers rate players they can’t wait to give them minutes.

So he probably thought Willian was turning a corner.
Martinelli will get plenty of opportunities, can't understand people losing their heads about this one.

Shown far more than Willian.
Willian came on for Martinelli against United and was far more effective...
