Arsenal's failure to land the signature of any of their right-wing targets may now be a blessing in disguise if the performance of Marquinhos is anything to go by.
The Brazilian teenager was handed his Gunners debut for the away clash with Swiss outfit FC Zurich on match-day one of the Europa League. He was, for large portions of the game, the best player on the pitch, scoring the first and assisting the second in a 2-1 Arsenal victory.
Such was the emotion coursing through him in the aftermath of his delightful right-footed finish, Marquinhos actually burst into tears. After being mobbed by his teammates, the winger managed to regain his composure and continue to wreak havoc.
