I might have been a bit harsh on Emile Smith Rowe. He deserves better than his current situation. He should move to a club where he gets regular playing time for the sake of his career growth. Every matchweek it is apparent that he doesn't fit into Arteta's future plans. I rate his potential higher than Eddie Nketiah's and Reiss Nelson's. He needs a Top 6 team or a Serie A perennial that can take his career to the next step. Martinelli shrugging off his handshake today hit me close to my heart. He is a player I've wanted to excel since his first 10 goal season and after saving Arteta's career, but he has become merely an after thought at this club. His fall in the pegging order has been excused by injury and new signings. I wish him a better outlook at a different club.

@coygsu @GunnersBot the handling of ESR is going to be one of those great mysteries we learn about in Mikel’s book 30 years from now.

My guess is mentality; we know Arteta cares about that a lot and we know ESR has been lacking at times.

@Astrealix then I don’t get why we don’t sell him?
