Arsenal's secret weapon in the Premier League title race run-in revealed amid Man City test



Arsenal's secret weapon in the Premier League title race run-in revealed amid Man City test

At times this season, Arsenal have needed the whole squad to chip in and play their part in a historic title race in the Premier League.

However, it's in recent weeks that the Brazilian has hit a run of form that will have pleased Arteta and has made him truly undroppable once more. While praise may be heaped upon others in the front line, Martinelli's contribution is key in getting the Gunners to where they are no

After his difficult spell in front of goal, the winger has now managed to record nine goal contributions in the last eight appearances in the league. This has equally coincided with Leandro Trossard and Jesus featuring up front after injury to Eddie Nketiah in the centre-forward roll

At such a young age, it remains to be seen exactly how far Martinelli can improve to reach the higher levels of the game, but his impact on the title race so far is clear and there's more to come ahead of the key run-in
