Bothroyd urges Arteta to drop Martinelli for Dowman
Following Arsenal's disappointing 2-1 loss to Bournemouth on Saturday, former Arsenal striker Jai Bothroyd has advised manager Mikel Arteta to drop Gabriel Martinelli from the starting lineup. Bothroyd expressed his concerns about Martinelli's performance, stating that while he made a great assist during the week, it has not been good enough this season.
He emphasized the need for Max Dowman to receive more playing time, suggesting that Dowman should start over Martinelli. Despite the defeat, Arsenal remains at the top of the Premier League table, ahead of second-placed Manchester City.
Bothroyd's comments were made during an appearance on Sky Sports, where he reflected on the team's performance and the need for changes in the starting lineup.
