Martin Odegaard has revealed that talks with the Arsenal coaching staff have transformed his mindset and been the catalyst for his stunning form this season.
The Gunners midfielder, who was handed the club captaincy by Mikel Arteta back in the summer, has been influential in the club's unexpected title challenge and led by example once again in Sunday's north London derby, where he scored Arsenal's second goal in an impressive 2-0 win.
Odegaard's crisp 25-yard strike that put the game beyond Tottenham at the weekend was the Norwegian maestro's eight league goal in 17 outings this term. The 24-year-old has also registered five assists for Arsenal, who now have an eight-point cushion ahead of Manchester City at the summit of the Premier League.
