When will Martin Odegaard make his debut in Arsenal’s starting XI? I think all Gooners are anxious to see the youngster get a full game in, and show what he will bring to the table.
So far, we saw him for a few minutes in the match v Manchester United, but then h saw no action against Wolves on Tuesday.
Is Mikel Arteta ready to start Odegaard over Emile Smith Rowe? That’s the burning question, however, in order to see what the Norwegian has to offer, he must be given some serious minutes on the pitch. Who knows, maybe he will be even better than Smith Rowe.
I predict neither Odegaard or Rowe Smith start on Saturday, however, on the other hand it might be time to rest Bukayo Saka, and let Odegaard play the #10 position. If Odegaard is indeed Premier League potential, let’s see what he has on Saturday at Villa Park.
The longer he rides the pine, the rustier he gets.
So, let Martin Odegaard play!
Cheers.
