The former Real Sociedad player Martin Odegaard is back in the spotlight today for the statements he has made about him a ‘gunner’ legend like Martin Keown. The Norwegian attacker, that little by little is entering the plans of Mikel Arteta after arriving at Arsenal in the winter transfer market, does not finish convincing the former English footballer.
It seems complicated that Odegaard is going to recover the shine and prominence that he had in the Royal Society in the season he did last year under the command of Imanol Alguacil.
Although little by little I am entering Mikel Arteta’s plans, Martin Keown he does not believe that the Real Madrid player should be a starter because he is “another project”.
“Odegaard, for me, should not be a starter because it is another project for which we do not have time. No time to lose. We have to win games and he has shown that he is not ready yet. He has moments of real quality, there is a player there, but Smith Rowe is ready to perform in that position, “said the former defender in BT Sports.
The urgencies for scoring haunt Arsenal, since the English club is in eleventh position in the Premier League, six points behind Europe and 11 in the Champions League, while in the UEFA Europa League the English suffered to leave Benfica out on the road .
A game in which Odegaard was a starter in the midfielder leaving Smith Rowe on the left wing and Aubameyang leading the way. The great mistake of that formation, according to Martin Keown, is to leave Lacazette out and put two players out of position.
“I see no reason why we are trying to play Aubamyeng down the middle. It would put Aubameyang back on the left wing, Lacazette as center forward and Smith Rowe as playmaker“, assured the ex-player.
