He is the only Arsenal player that I’m afraid of at the moment, I watched their game against Wolves and He seems to be scary Infront of goals” Aston Villa star Martinez reveals the only Arsenal player that will be a threat to their defense on Saturday

Right now, I’m scared of just one Arsenal player: him. I saw their match against Wolves, and he looked menacing. ahead of objectives Martinez, an Aston Villa player, identifies the lone Arsenal player that poses a danger to their defence on Saturday.

Even though it’s only the second game of the Premier League season, every game matters greatly since the margins of victory are so thin in a fight for the championship. In their third effort to unseat Manchester City, the Gunners go to Aston Villa with the knowledge that anything less than a victory might have disastrous effects come the end of the season.

Villa was the only team to defeat Arsenal both at home and away in the previous campaign, and they posed the greatest threat to the Gunners’ title run, which finished with a mere two-point deficit to Pep Guardiola’s team. Mikel Arteta has given Unai Emery his number since the two have faced off multiple times, with the Arsenal boss coming out on top just once.

The previous season, John McGinn’s early goal, several dubious choices, and squandered opportunities all contributed to Arsenal’s 1-0 loss. In spite of Douglas Luiz’s obvious attempt to pull Gabriel Jesus down in the area, Gabriel Jesus was not given a penalty, and Kai Havertz was penalised for a rough handball—which the letter of the rule states was a handball—that was intended to stop a late equaliser.

Arsenal goes there this time around inspired and confident to break the record. Without Luiz in the lineup, Villa will undoubtedly aim to build on their victory over West Ham United on opening day, helped by summer acquisition Amadou Onana.

Even if his side defeated Wolves, there are still certain adjustments I would be eager to make if I were Mikel Arteta. Arteta needs to get his team playing well. Oleksandr Zinchenko played well against Wolves in the first half, but he lost steam in the second half and committed some defensive errors that Villa or another stronger team would have little trouble punishing.

Although he almost got away with a single possession error, Jurrien Timber’s play coming off the bench pleased me enough that I believe he would be a superior choice for Saturday night. Naturally, that would depend on how fit he is and whether or not he’s prepared to begin the game.
