Jamie Carragher has echoed Micah Richards sentiment in his praise for Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard and even likened him to Manchester City superstar Kevin De Bruyne.
The Gunners skipper has enjoyed a sensational season that has seen him net 15 goals this term, while breaking an impressive record in the process. Odegaard's most recent goal came in the form of a long-range strike away at in-form Newcastle as Arsenal recorded a hard-fought 2-0 victory to become just the second side to beat the Magpies on their own patch this term.
A win on Tyneside also keeps Arsenal's slim title hopes alive, as they now sit one point behind City having played one game more. Carragher admitted that he viewed the fixture as one where the Gunners' dreams of a first league title since 2004 could have come to an end.
