Arsenal forward Gabriel Martinelli has received heaps of praise from fans and pundits after his brace helped Arsenal to a 4-0 win against Standard Liege on Thursday.
The teenage sensation scored two goals in three minutes to secure Arsenal’s second win of their Europa League campaign, and the Gunners have now scored eight goals without conceding any.
The Brazilian also scored twice during the Gunners’ 5-0 win against Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup and manager Unai Emery described him as a “fighter” after his contributions.

How long did we sign him for on that initial contract, because I think we might need to consider doubling it at least already????
