Argentine starlet handed Arsenal trial

Independiente youngster Damian Martinez has been handed a trial at Arsenal.

The 16-year-old will arrive in England later this week. The goalkeeper will spend a week training with Arsenal.

Reports claim The Gunners have already agreed a £1.3million deal for the Argentine Under-17 international.

“When I was told that I was going to have a trail at Arsenal I thought that someone was joking,” he told Radio Rivadavia.

“In fact, I thought that they were talking about Arsenal de Sarandi, the team called like that but that plays in Argentina.”

    Arsenal needs the strikers and not goalkeeper/s. This always the case. The coach does not see the problems in the same ways with the supporters.
    Arsenal is a big team but sometime the coach makes it to be small always it is beaten by Manchester. Chelsea and Liverpool. When a strategy that can beat all those teams. The plan is to get rid of Adebayor and Nicklas Bedner

    I agree with masaka.wenger apparently seems like the sort of fellow who will rather have things continue to go wrong than admit his mistakes and seek solutions.it must be reason why he wont change a trouphyless system,it must be the only reason why he continues to keep ‘faith’ with a team that is steadily lossing its ‘big team’ status in europe.why the arsenal board will not hang mr.wenger by d ears and issue him a ’shape up or ship out’ ultimatum is the biggest mystery at the emirates.may the heavens help arsenal!
