Gabriel Martinelli was one of the few positives in Arsenal’s lineup against Newcastle, but it’s the ability to score at crucial moments that distinguishes a good attacker from a great one.
Martinelli missed a key opportunity to open the scoring, and just 10 minutes later, Alexander Isak demonstrated what a top forward brings to the table by scoring after a similar chance.
Fans took to social media to express their frustration:
@UPYOURARSENAL04: “Martinelli needs to improve his decision-making. He’s not a kid anymore.”
@ChidubemNJ: “Very good first half, but Martinelli missed a 1v1 chance, hitting the woodwork. Isak scored his. These are the margins.”
@unclejayye: “Our attack is so blunt! Martinelli should have done better with that chance.”
Other fans were similarly critical:
@AyanwolaWasiu: “Even if Martinelli scores 100 goals for Arsenal, you can’t deny he’s not good enough.”
@certifiedshevhy: “Complaining about Martinelli feels pointless nowadays, and I don’t even want to talk about Havertz.”
@denmanknight: “Martinelli couldn’t finish a yoghurt. Useless.”
Arsenal fans are growing frustrated with Martinelli’s inability to capitalize on key moments.
