Former Arsenal striker Emmanuel Adebayor, who has experienced similar situations during his playing career, believes that Arteta needs to manage the situation carefully. Adebayor suggests that if Martinelli continues to be left on the bench, he may become frustrated and potentially disrupt the team's dynamics.
Adebayor, who was once a benchwarmer himself, understands the challenges of being left out of the starting lineup. He recalls speaking with former manager Arsene Wenger to express his desire to play, and believes that Arteta needs to have open communication with Martinelli to keep him motivated.
Adebayor warns that if Arteta fails to manage the situation, Martinelli may lose his focus and affect the team's training sessions. However, the Brazilian has shown his worth off the bench in the last two games, and may be given another chance to start with Madueke injured.
The team's performance and dynamics will be closely watched in the coming weeks as Arteta navigates the delicate situation.
