Well. Its Artetas call. I'll really only be happy if he actually plays.

Time for Laca to be sent to Bristol City then
Player:Martinelli
Nketiah. Running down the wings.
So who doesn’t make the bench then? If Martinelli is dropped from match day squads for him I’ll be pissed off.
Starting to feel sorry for Bristol City.
Country: Wales
As per me, before Ornstein announced it my sources let me know early on that Nketiah just didn’t want to go to Bristol City.
Once Villa’s interest failed to materialise and Pukki came back from injury quicker than expected for Norwich it became more and more likely that Eddie would stay.
Martinelli is in the Olympics squad so he might be going to play in that if Brazil fought for it. Saka might be a straight up LB now, it's possible. Someone could be going - Lacazette?
It's a bit strange if I'm honest but Eddie's my guy so I hope if Arteta's pulled an audible that he actually plans on doing something with him, as he's better than given credit. He must be looking really good in training.

Not sure what we are trying here. He needs minutes. Doubt he is ahead of Laca, Martinelli and Auba to play as CF, Unless we are trying to play him on the wings. But that wouldn't make much sense too. I'm prepared to wait and see how this plays out but my initial reaction to hearing this news is that we are choosing the wrong option.
Country: Wales
Laca or Aubameyang might be off, Barcelona are looking for a striker.
Country: Iceland
Good. We need actual strikers!

Nketiah on for Laca as a sub and Martinelli from the start! Lets go!

Right Sometimes
To be fair Nketiah is indeed a pretty much complete striker and thus probably someone Arteta likes a lot. No real weaknesses.
Martinelli is the biggest talent, but both are pretty well-rounded. Nice to have two of that type for once. We usually don't.

Player:Martinelli
really?He might be equal in his skillset, unfortunately its below par, he hasn't shown anything good in first team football. Guy needs playtime. No idea why we kept him. Unless we got strikers leaving.
Will he also keep Auba on wing? Will he make martinelli play on the wing?
Neither is good imo.

League is very weak
I was wondering why we can’t use him like Utd use Greenwood.

Why? If Eddie is impressing more in training.

Barely getting any minutes for a leeds side where the biggest weakpoint is at striker is pretty alarming.
We already have enough youngsters in the 1st team right now with Martinelli, Saka and Nelson.
Should send Nketiah and Willock out on loan tbh

Not sure that’s true, Patrick Bamford is an integral part of how Bielsa wants to play.
Just seems he’s too stubborn or reluctant to change his team up.
Player:Saliba
Wasn't Eddie scoring most opportunities he got anyway?
Only possible other reason I can think of is that he wants to work with Eddie for the second half of the season as he knows Auba and/or Laca will be off end of the season and wants to bed him into the 1st team setup now, could get a handful of Europa league games I suppose, although i'd say right now that is our best chance of making European football next year and there will probably come a point where we field our best team for the Europa and write off the prem this season.
