Arsenal star Gabriel Martinelli has started all five of the Gunners' Premier League fixtures this season. The Brazilian has started the new campaign in fine form, scoring three goals in August.
However, life at the Emirates Stadium hasn't always been so straightforward for Martinelli. Last season, the forward started 21 of Arsenal's 38 Premier League games. In the previous two campaigns, he played just 14 matches each season.
Now getting a consistent run in the team and the form of his life, Martinelli is reaping the rewards for his patience over his first few seasons at Arsenal, where he struggled to nail down a regular spot in the team. The Brazilian is one of the first names on the team sheet for Mikel Arteta, but when he was out of the side, he was always keen to show his boss what he was missing.
