Lupoli: 'They are world class players'
By Mohsin Khan
Another game, another goal, another master-class in finishing — how
Arsenal must wish they had another Arturo.
For since young Italian forward Arturo Lupoli joined Arsenal as a scholar
from Serie A side Parma in the summer of 2004, almost everything he touches
turns to goals.
In his first season at Highbury, the 18-year-old finished as the Reserve
League's top scorer with 19 goals from 20 starts. He notched 29 goals in
all competitions, including a brace at home to an almost full-strength
Everton side in the Carling Cup.
Lupoli enhanced his reputation with the winning goal against Ajax at the A
msterdam Tournament last month and got off the mark for this season with a
typically clinical finish for the second string against Leicester.
The diminutive Italian lined up alongside Sol Campbell and Mathieu Flamini
in that match and feels that playing alongside established stars does
wonders for his development.
"It is very helpful because they have a lot of experience, they are world
class players," Lupoli told Arsenal.com.
"I hope they play more often. It’s good when they play with us and pass on
their experience."
Lupoli was given a taste of FA Cup action last season, starting the Fourth
Round replay at Sheffield United. But despite his rapid progress at
Highbury, the teenager is not getting carried away.
"I just try to improve in every training [session] and do my best in every
game and that’s it," he said. "After that the manager is looking from the
stand and I can do nothing else.
"I think everybody would hope to play more regularly for the first team but
my aim for this year is to play as many games as I can," he added.
"When you play with the first team you always improve your game and it is
very good to play with big players."
