'I've met him': Gabriel Martinelli reveals which Arsenal legend he models his game on

In an interview with Sky Sports, Gabriel Martinelli was asked for his thoughts on the legendary Thierry Henry.

The Arsenal attacker, 21, replied: "I've met him before. He's a nice guy.

"On the pitch, he was unbelievable, a legend for the club and the Premier League. For me, he's the best of all time in the Premier League - an unbelievable player.

"Of course, I think everyone does [try and model their game around Henry's]. He was an amazing player.

"Everyone looks up to him. That one against Tottenham, for sure, that's my favourite [Henry goal]. The one where he does the knee slide."

Martinelli has begun the season in fine fashion, scoring twice in three Premier League outings so far.
