Richards: Whether Yorke can perform stably remains to be observed, Martinelli is more suitable for substitutes

August 4th News Recently, former England defender Richards talked about Arsenal's lineup. He believes that Yorke is excellent, but whether he can perform stably remains to be observed.

Richards said: "How many times have we said Arsenal needed a new forward, and we said almost every week last season. They do need a forward for a while, and I still think they need a left winger, they have contacted Eze, right?"

"I think Martinelli is really good for the left winger, but he's more like a backup surprise now, and it's perfect for a substitute. If they can sign Eze, it would be great."

" As for York Rees, I think it's a very good signing, but it remains to be seen whether he can play consistently at this level. I've watched a lot of his game videos and I think he's running very well and is a very smart forward. "

"I don't think people should expect him to have a good ball possession because I've seen the ball slipping away from his feet a few times in the game, but he still scored two goals in the game and got a lot of praise. He really makes trouble for his opponents, which is exactly what Arsenal needs."
