2) Odegaard Leads By Example

Odegaard

A number of players did not perform to their usual standards against Wolves. Bukayo Saka, in particular, was pretty anonymous. You do wonder whether some were playing within themselves with the World Cup in mind.


Of course, with Norway not at the tournament, Odegaard was fully committed, and he delivered by scoring a brace. It was a captain’s performance when the Gunners really needed one.
