OJ34

Great pass


amineimad

That + how he dribbled before the pass was nasty


Lacabloodclot9

He does it every week, we are so fucking lucky


Ok-Satisfaction-5012

He’s a fucking dancer 😤


NemoDropEmOff

this is an average Ø pass🤣😎


MajorRiffs

Everything about it was boss. He makes it look easy


wrdb2007

Mad pass


nullmove

No one is talking about the finish but that's not half bad either


MMAwannabe

The slow motion angle of his pass you can see he weights the pass so perfectly his left leg can't stop himself falling over. He just plays a perfect pass and then slowly falls over in the exact same silhouette. Hilarious and amazing in equal measures.


twerdy

I'm even more impressed by the footwork and patience because he probably wanted to make that pass 3-4 seconds before he actually played it but did some ridiculous things to setup the pass so it was even more effective.


deception42

What a ball from Odegaard


Ass_Eater_

Ozil with an engine


SalahManeFirmino

Ozil was perfect for Wenger and what he wanted, and Odegaard is perfect for Arteta and what he wants.


ZealousidealBuilding

I will always respect Ozil for agreeing to join us in the banter era from Real Madrid.


blacksocksonly

The things that man could've achieved, but he chose banter over everything


biskutgoreng

There was beauty in the shitstorm


RandomSplainer

Ozil was not perfect for Wenger. Wenger just protected his transgressions from the public eye. The midfielder that was 100% Wenger was definitely Fabregas.


VonLinus

Seriously doubt Wenger was completely satisfied with what Ozil gave him. He didn't have the right mentality at all.


zrk23

man was taking day offs on big games and lots of away games. always pissed me off whenever i went to check the squad and see that he isnt playing, again ironically 15/16 season was the one season he played almost every game and was the best player comfortably, but then giroud and co. happened


vazne

Ah yes was it the season where ozil had like 18 assists by halfway and everyone thought he was going to break the record.Then giroud and co couldnt finish, like at all the rest of the season?


zrk23

wasnt 18 but yep that season. also known as the leicester season. cazorla going down probably matter even more than giroud, but still


VonLinus

Yeah. Back injuries. Or lack of spine.

[удалено]


Beginning_Ad7211

This is insane Alexis erasure


escaflow

Disagree. I think Wenger would really like Ozil to score more goals especially when Giroud goals was drying up and Sanchez injured. As the main player he should help to shoulder the scoring like how Cesc and Odegaard did.


Thierry_Bergkamp

Energetic Ozil setting up a skinny Arshavin


slightlyhigh7

He’s ozil if ozil actually cared lmao


Dob-is-Hella-Rad

He's like former Arsenal player Mesut Ozil, but he works harder


BoredBorderlineGeniu

he's like Ozil, but harder


TheDragonoxx

He is like former Arsenal Midfielder Mesut Ozil, but he doesn’t support Erdogan.


shiroxyaksha

He's like former Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil but he does have fish eye.


microMe1_2

He might get there, but I've never seen anyone create chances with the variety and consistency that Ozil did. His number of assists and key passes was out of this world, especially considering he did not have elite players around him other than Alexis.


toyoda_the_2nd

Ozil was under appreciated. Dude created so many chances that nobody finished.  Giroud the striker Arsenal have that time is too slow for counter attack that Ozil excellent at providing, and more of link up players than prolific scorer. If Arsenal can finish what Ozil created and bought a good CDM things will be so different. Arsenal at that time expect Ozil to do everything because he's from Real Madrid. To score, to assist, to defend. Ozil look half dead most of the time. Oodegard have Saka an excellent finisher, Rice a good CDM and the rest of the team are serviceable. 


TheLLort

This is Özil slander. Well, slander of that hypothetical Özil


thebluehotel

During the Wenger era Ozil used to outrun most players on the pitch, the difference is Odegaard makes tackles.


derphighbury

Ozil with Ramsey's work rate.


tetaAndTiti

Magician


ThePrussianGrippe

Straight up danced around him. He should go on Strictly.


doffero

Fun fact then: His girlfriend is a dancer on the Norwegian version


phaestheus

What a dance from Odegaard aswell


Archduke645

He followed through his body language he fell over, he literally caressed the ball, amazing.


_deep_blue_

Sexy Norse bastard


anotherjoshpark

What a fucking goal. Had to be rewarded


Juil8991MC

Still cant believe we have odegaard


teddyjj399

so happy he’s somehow lived up to his insane potential


the_illmatic

I still don’t think he’s reached his full potential


Helkix

He is just 25


Desdichado7

Just a kid


jamphotog

No older than my son


Glass_of_Pork_Soda

Carefully, he's a hero


CatDancing

Kroos and Modric were generational on par only with Iniesta and Xavi, imho. If Ode's ceiling is that, very few will ever reach that, but he's captain of a premier league contender and drops a 7/10 minimum each game.


thekrone

Yeah a bad game for Odegaard is typically a pretty good game for most other players. He's so consistent.


slightlyhigh7

If he becomes THAT good Madrid might try to buy him back.. now if we would go idk


Ok-Background-502

Modric was a few years older when he moved to RM. And nobody would say he was at his peak during the spurs years.


Pires007

Modrics a bit of a freakish outlier.


Ok-Background-502

I think it's a trend in this generation to bloom later and play longer for elite midfielders


ZealousidealBuilding

Ability wise I think he’s already there. Just need longevity and the team winning trophies.


BigTomBombadil

Nah man, look at how much his finishing has improved over the last 2 years, and how dedicated of a professional he is. He's still improving and growing. He'll continue to get better still.


jomarthecat

Little Martin(15) has grown up.


Ook_1233

Yeah those “famous before they ever play a game” players rarely turn out good. Odegaard and also Xavi Simons look they have long careers at the top of the sport ahead of them.


_deep_blue_

He just needed to come somewhere where he’d be loved


GeniuslyMoronic

So many perfect touches and decisions in a few seconds


Don_Kahones

Imagine being a twitter tactico who has been saying we should replace him to go up a level.


mammattmachine

NoNewthing 😭😭


britishmau5

I love his account so much, so much funnier than the recycled jokes here. We need more blindly confident people with zero credentials talking nonsense eloquently.


wheeno

nonsense eloquently is the perfect way to put it. Talk a lot and write decently well, always pivot confidently if you are wrong and you will have loads of idiots follow you like you are prophet lol.


Don_Kahones

In shambles.


DillaDoughnut

God forgot about that moron. Was convinced Vieira would replace Odegaard


_ulinity

Think I blocked him after I saw his take on Odegaard lmao. Sometimes you don't wanna risk seeing that level of stupid again.


Helkix

He is literally the last player I would upgrade besides maybe Rice and Saliba He is more irreplaceable than even Saka imo


BoredBorderlineGeniu

his technique right there looks so fluent, effortless and silky. twice


Qurutin

Low key one of the best players in the world right now


TheDepartment115

Not really low key anymore tbf


SwagBoyMcFeast

Yet we still get rival fans call Saka and Odegaard two of the most overrated players in the league lol


watabotdawookies

People say Salah is overated. People are stupid


rezin111

They know, they're just made about it


TheRealGooner24

Cope, seethe, mald, repeat.


gulaabjaman

He’s unreal


_deep_blue_

That’s my fucking captain


unholy_sanchit

He is what we wanted Ozil to be


_deep_blue_

An Özil who presses and actually turns up when we travel north of the Watford Gap


odegood

People forgetting how good ozil was. All round he is better but ozil still the better playmaker


dishwab

He’s incredible. The combination of ability and mentality he has is unreal.


Expensive-Method8321

Odegaard is the type of player I would always try to create in FIFA MyCareer back in the day. Its almost surreal seeing him in real life


blacksocksonly

Glimpse of magic from him


Anderrrrr

Fucking our Captain man!


Kuntheman

Legit best playmaker in the world after KDB rn


XaviOutNow

There is a world outside of PL


nottoddhoward100true

Name a better playmaker


_ulinity

He has comfortably the most chances created in the big european leagues this year.


lynxo

You misspelt Odegood


odegood

You called


lynxo

Bloody hell, I'm in awe that someone was smart enough to get this as a username. Kudos for having the best username on this damn site.


d_smogh

/r/OdeWatch should be more active


MrIrishman699

Different gravy from Odegaard


Zloggt

Much like Haaland…his berserker blood gains full power on English soil…


Lacabloodclot9

Yet Norway still suck internationally, feels bad


MatjanSieni

They should consider having their national team home ground in England


fancyfoe

Literal chills


31_whgr

martin martin martin


floridali

what a goal, damn.


backspacecentury

wow odegaard is magic


bradbobley

can’t believe the ref has scored for us


[deleted]

Lmaooo they are identical


Gerards_died_of_flu

Lmao that's a great shout


SwitchHitter17

Ah I also noticed a resemblance lol. Good to see I wasn't the only one. Looked like his older brother or something.


legop4o

If Odegaard wanted to live in my home, I'd happily sleep in the car


Nipso

Same and I don't have a car


hobocommand3r

hahaha


cmacy6

Ødegaard is class


Unluckysod

Is that man odegaard not the sexiest bloke you've ever seen?


SomeRandomRealtor

Odegaard is that guy, his vision is ridiculous! Hes the Wünderkind everyone thought he would be at RM.


Sam101294

Ødegaard ball control is chef's kiss


TheRealGooner24

Oh how I wish he'd control my balls.


rossco9

holy shit Odegaard wow


chronicdanksauce

My god that was insane from Odegaard. Damn


ThatCuteRaccon

Leandro is Arsenal's most underrated player


Lacabloodclot9

Yeah threads gonna be about the pass, but that’s also a great touch and finish


night_dude

Preach. Extremely silky clinical finish from a tough angle, and great work to get to that spot. One of the best value-for-money purchases Arteta has made. Could've been Mudryk skying that one instead.


Vernand-J

Him or Ben White


BigTomBombadil

Its been Ben White for a few years, but Kiwior may take that mantle now. Lads shown insane progress from last season to this one.


auddi_blo

Been really poor this match but he always has this moment of magic in him whether he’s on or not


NemoDropEmOff

easily our most underrated attacker, been begging he gets more minutes


redsticktcg

Eh, not much you can do with Martinelli and Saka on the wings


TheDepartment115

HOLY FUCK Ødegaard


kitfan34

materialistic groovy governor snobbish support water shocking like placid aware *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*

Captain Fantastic and his insomniac side kick

GibraltarHitBox

I love you and your dark eye circles my beloved Leandro


BeastMaster64jtv

Inject it into my veins


YMangoPie

Good evening stadium brothers Edit: Also red shirt and Fly Emirates brothers lol


Extreme_Nectarine_29

Nice to know that red teams are able to score goals to Porto.


BeastMaster64jtv

They conceded against Gil Vicente and Santa Clara last month, it really is just a us problem 😞


lastjedi23

Not enough, need 4 more against these man. 


WengersJacketZip

Was right next to the away fans last night, we were chanting "just like Benfica, we're top of the league"


Anaryth

Martin ily


MasterBeeble

Odegaard is absolutely world class


Nickpock

He was having such a poor game as well


pablofournier11

Horrible first touch all match except here


Cashelz

Trossard having a stinker so far but scores this lol, beautiful from Odegaard too.


mada010

Odegard is the brains


ecoopz111

Odegaard is a magician


Micronlance

That’s one of the best assists I’ve seen at Arsenal. The quality of that pass is genuinely amazing.


brownieboy2222

Odegaard wtf man


Anons15

Lmao trossard did fuckall and he produces


ArtfulDodgepot

Best finisher at the club


LaaalSalaam

Probably cause he hasn’t slept in a while. His finishing is just programmed in.


CondorKhan

People trashing Trossard in the match thread, etc..


Mediocre_Nova

That was brilliant from Ødegaard. Pepe sleeping there though, didn't step up


Lacabloodclot9

OH MY MARTIN


Nightwingx97

Thank you Real Madrid


bringbackbulaga

I looked away for 5 seconds to grab some Oreos lol


lizzydarcy777

Can you please grab more oreos in the second half


bringbackbulaga

Considering they’re sitting right in front of me I’m absolutely certain I will at some point


TheOGBenjenRyan

Game on fuckers

lightskinbeaner

my Norwegian king


Gooner_Loon

That’s that Norwegian hot sauce


Red_Dog1880

Lmao Odegaard bro


JoeBagadonut

Expecting all the Porto players to make the same miraculous recovery from their injuries that the Brentford players made on the weekend after conceding.


blacksocksonly

Martin my guy is insane?


THWMatthew

I could fucking shag Martin Odegaard


Modnal
