I think this is the main thing and people are slyly ****ting on Saka and Nelson's mentality. The latter two have shown nothing that calls their mentality into question.That plus hes already played against grown men for longer.

No one is is ****ting on their mentality. Its a valid discussion considering both Saka and Nelsons game time. Everyone wants them to do well, probably more than big money signings.I think this is the main thing and people are slyly ****ting on Saka and Nelson's mentality.

Precisely. Martinelli - ginormous talent though he is - has built a solid foundation off of games he already played. Those games may be at a lower level, but that's still far more match experience than the vast majority of our academy players, who've hardly gone on loans and the ones that have, don't play as often as we'd like them to.I think this is the main thing and people are slyly ****ting on Saka and Nelson's mentality.

Both Saka and Nelson have yet to sustain a long run against fully grown men for long enough to build that kind of assuredness and comfort at this level. There's still that little bit of nerves - even in someone relentless like Saka who's had such a steep trajectory in a short space of time, even quicker than Nelson who I feel is the bigger talent. They're gonna hit walls from time to time, especially at this level, Willock just hit one a few games ago.
I like Martinelli and I think he's 100% earned every plaudit and every minute of game time he's been given. But I could never use him as a stick to wave at Nelson and Saka. We have to show them support IMO, and hope that they're also afforded opportunities to show how good they can be.
You don't speak for everyone.No one is is ****ting on their mentality. Its a valid discussion considering both Saka and Nelsons game time. Everyone wants them to do well, probably more than big money signings.
I think yours was a lot more concise to be fairYou don't speak for everyone.
I've seen plenty of posts lauding Martinelli's mentality and linking it to why he's done much better than Saka and Nelson. There's an implication therefore that the latter two are lacking in that department. I don't think that's the case, Martinelli is just a better player and a part of that is probably due to his experience playing with grown men for a longer time.
...and I've just seen mutable say the same thing but in a much better way.
I think its a fair and valid discussion, they are comparable really.You don't speak for everyone.

This kid has some serious intelligence. If you watch his games he does things that you really can't teach. EITHER YOU HAVE IT OR DON'T AND HE HAS IT.
Am I to read every post in this thread to suit you? No, nor will I. I don't have time for that.At this moment in time I wonder if you even read other people's posts
I posted a virtually identical post yesterday evening

I am just giving my opinion and If you shared a similar point of view, that is okay.
Agent Edu + Gilberto + SylvinhoNoooooo
“After being handed his first Brazil Under-23s call-up last month, Martinelli could feature in the CONMEBOL Pre-Olympic Tournament in Colombia from January 18 to February 9.
As a result, Martinelli would miss their Premier League games away at Chelsea and Burnley plus home clashes with Sheffield United and Newcastle , as well as the FA Cup fourth round”.
Oh well.
