Wenger has faith in Martinez

Champions League Group D

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has every confidence rookie goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez will be up to the challenge of his Champions League debut away to Anderlecht tonight.

With regular Gunners’ number one Wojciech Szczesny suspended and Colombia international David Ospina, bought in the summer from Nice, suffering a recurrence of a thigh problem which will sideline him for up to three months, Wenger has little choice but to put his faith in the 22-year-old.
