Cant believe we all wanted Maddison instead of him at the start of the season

I didn't. I wanted Buendia Ødegaard has been much better than both and looks like he has another level in him. Brilliant signing. For 30m too. Bargain.

 

[Macho]

I like Madders, but yeah that was never the case. A lot of us balked at the price that was being bandied about.

 

[Blood on the Tracks]

I think with Ødegaard this is just natural development. He's at a club where he seems comfortable and knows that he's going to be playing pretty much week in week out. He's finally got some stability and that's enabling him to flourish.

There are still areas for him to improve on of course but for the price paid he's looking like a steal already.

We? Was Ødegaard > Maddison all along, personally.

Younger, better, half the price and isn’t a walking nature valley bar.

Never in doubt.

Edit: she's literally just got one to have after lunch for "postre"

Ode continues to be very impressive.

Istill can't believe this prejudice title hasn't changed.

Sickening.

 

[Heavy Duty Rom]

My boy, what a player. He took over the game, led the press, passes with composure, led the way. Top.

 

[A_G]

elite.

[boonthegoon]

What a player. Right from December he has been consistently very good.

 

[sdotzdot]

Nothing more can be said about how good this guy is. If you don’t rate him, football, you don’t know.

 

[MikelHadADream]

The fact that he isn't just a pure number 10, which is what I thought he was, means he will be a top top player. Off the ball he's immense, and he can drop deep to build the play. Outstanding tonight.

 

[BenTal]

He's been great for a while now. 30m Bargain!

 

[14Henry]

Next captain for me. Absolute leader both vocally and in his actions on the pitch. Never hides.

 

[MaraDon]

elite.

@MaraDon

elite is a bit too much, but he playing next to Saka is immense for both players, Saka tends to be double marked while this guy can have that extra second to create.

I like him, I understand why we went for him, he never hides, we needed that.

He needs to be more prolific and get into better positions inside the box. He reminds me at prime Ramsey if he can start getting goals he is going to be massive.

Never hides and in fact, is constantly trying to lead the press and tracks back very quickly when we’re under pressure or lose the ball.

He is quickly becoming my favourite player. Very rarely do you see someone be so overhyped as a teenager, move to one of the biggest clubs in the world lose their mojo and somehow not end up a lazy prima madonna. He done the opposite and worked harder to come back and live up to the hype. Can’t believe we got him for 30m

This, on behalf on the blondes of this world, this thread needs renaming.

 

[El Duderino]

Been quietly very good.
