Martinelli has already scored four goals this season. His best performance came against Liverpool, when he was named Man Of The Match.

Agbonlahor revealed on Football Insider:

“Now it’s coming to the stage where a bit more rotation is needed. Does Martinelli have a rest and you bring in [Fabio] Vieira or Marquinhos?”

“You need to rest certain players because they are going to suffer from burnout. They haven’t looked as sharp.”
