The guy turns 23 in a month, and has played under a year in the toughest league in the world. Yes, I'm not worried either.

He wasn't expensive, less than half of what Maddison likely would have been.

He just oozes class and technical ability. I really hope he comes good for Arsenal. Needs to speed his game up with less touches and more quality on the final ball / action.
Couldn't agree more about the need to speed his game up. He only needs to do it in fits and starts but it will make a massive difference if he does it at the right time.
 

Maybe

You're wrong, no?

He could also turn up to be a squad player if players like Saka and ESR perform better this season and the next one. Let's say that happens, the money invested for a squad player is too high, especially when our academy can produce players like him for free.
Agree with Maddison comparison though, think Ode was a better choice even if he doesn't reach the level we want him to be at

Yeah, but that is fine too, because I can't imagine many situations where we couldn't get much of our money back if we want to sell him.

Arsenal needs great level squad players, more like City, than in our past. If we want to compete. So no, I don't think it's too much for a squad/rotation player either.

Also...sad to see Ødegaard didn't make another major tournament, like to see as many Arsenal players as possible at them.

I remember at Euro 2021, I got my first covid jab on the day it started, I was a bit out of it...the next day, I got Denmark mixed up with Norway, and spent like the first 30 minutes of the game, yelling at my tv, at why Haaland and Ødegaard weren't playing :lol:

Hope Martin makes the next one!

Yeah I’m actually a fan because this boy has that rare mix of sublime technique and a bit of grit/leadership.

Getting kept out the team by this version of Laca is embarrassing though :lol:

Needs to sort it out, he’s done nothing other than be consistently unremarkable.

Feel like we will see the best of Oh Day Guard once Aubameyang and Lacazette depart.

League is very weak
How do people criticise Arteta’s system then single out individuals like Ødegaard?
Others still perform though? On and off. Saka, ESR now, Auba, Pepe until he was dropped for Willian. Even Özil played well before he was dropped for the China stuff. Casper hasn’t had those runs of form.

Where is that poll I wanted? Where i predicted he’ll get less than 10 G/A combined, in the league. Looks on for me.

Maybe if Casper was played in the same position consistently he’d be able to do something.

I gave you that poll but everyone decided to create new threads for the players.
