The two youngsters are most definitely of importance to our side, both in motivation and ability, and that mix with the crucial experience of the likes of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang cannot be discredited.
The manager doesn’t quite answer the question that was asked, but the message he puts out is a positive one.
Could Saka and Martinelli prove to be future captains in the side one day?
