The man hasn't impressed me so far and I don't think he can make a serious impact till the season's end.His contribution is limited by his inability to really produce something remotely dangerous for the opposition side.He doesn't score,he can't create opportunities for his teammates and doesn't even contribute sufficiently when it comes to help the defence.I know he was injured but even before the injury he hadn't been impressive and in fact is in poor form since the begining.It is very unlikely that he will manage to score or give an assist and it is the only objective way I can measure his performance because the prime responsibilities of an attacking midfielder/forward are these.I can only think of a single clever through ball to Del Piero against Samp and that is by far the most significant result of Martinez's pathetic efforts.Even Tiago would've been ashamed of such inefficiency who was the gold standard for years in that category when he was our player.I can only hope that Martinez can surprise me in the next games but it wouldn't change my opinion that overall he is an average player with limited skills and gloomy prospects.

In his defence: It seems he is playing with a nasty injury. During Caglari he was surely injured at his foot since he didn't make a lot of runs (which is his strenght in his game)

Maybe a shallow explanitation for his not so promising game anymore?

i remember situations in past games where he very nicely took on 3 players at once and still kept the ball, so this might be an indicator of things to come, when he is fit and first of all played in his favourite position

So how is it going with him? Injured? Didnt play against Inter right?
I hope to see more from him, he is a bit promising but his constant injuries are disabeling him to start his Juve career.

I don't think he's injured.. In Inter match he is on the bench and i don't think it's appropriate to subs him in.. Also it gives time to him to recover more from his injury
