Madueke leads Arsenal to 4-0 FA Cup win as Arteta ponders Saka's role

Arsenal cruised to a 4-0 FA Cup fifth-round victory over third-tier Wigan, with Eberechi Eze setting up Noni Madueke’s opener and a subsequent through-ball from Eze helping Martinelli to a goal, before an own goal made it 3-0 and Gabriel Jesus completed the scoring. Madueke’s form remains hot, collecting three goals and an assist in five appearances since stepping in for Saka, prompting Arteta to consider more dual threats on the frontline. Saka started in a No. 10-like role behind Jesus and was substituted at half-time as the team reshuffled; Calafiori’s warm-up injury forced Lewis-Skelly to move to left-back, while 16-year-old Marli Salmon saw rare centre-back minutes and Tommy Setford made his home debut in goal. Arteta praised the cohesion and hinted at flexible line-ups going forward, with a trip to Wolves next.

Martinelli seals turbulent week with FA Cup hat-trick for Arsenal

Gabriel Martinelli capped a dramatic week by scoring his first senior hat-trick as Arsenal beat Portsmouth 4-1 to reach the FA Cup fourth round. The goals came from two near-post headers off Madueke’s corners and a late strike from a quick free-kick setup, taking him to nine goals in all competitions and making him Arsenal’s top scorer this season. The week began with criticism after he shoved an injured Conor Bradley (who later suffered a season-ending injury), and he answered with focus and form as Kai Havertz returned and a 16-year-old debuted for the club.
