Gary Lineker has suggested that Arsenal starlet Gabriel Martinelli will become ‘world class’ after his sparkling performance against Liverpool on Wednesday. Despite the Gunners eventually being defeated 2-0 by the Reds, the youngster certainly earned plenty of praise.
Goals from Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino secured victory for Jurgen Klopp’s men on the night as the visitors bolstered their hopes of claiming the Premier League title, whilst also handing Arsenal what could potentially be a gutting blow in their hopes of securing a top four finish. A huge positive for the Gunners though was the performance of Martinelli, who consistently troubled Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Match of the Day host Gary Lineker appeared to be a huge fan of the young Brazilian’s display. He took to Twitter with a short message to share his thoughts.
