Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has fired a warning to Premier League rivals insisting there is 'more to come' from the Gunners moving forward. Arsenal currently sit top of the table and five points clear of Manchester City heading into the final 11 games of the season.
Odegaard took over the club captaincy at the start of the season and has been influential in helping lead his teammates towards the Premier League title this season. Whilst the job is not done yet, there are positive signs that even if the Gunners do not lift the title this season, they will be fierce challengers for years to come.
Jamie Redknapp believes that the Norwegian playmaker has now surpassed City star Kevin De Bruyne as the best creative midfielder in the Premier League. Odegaard scored his 10th goal of the season in the 3-0 win against Fulham at the weekend and put in yet another spectacular display in midfield for Mikel Arteta's side.

The 24-year-old midfielder's performances this season saw him take home the Premier League Player of the Year Award at the London Football Awards ceremony, beating off competition from the likes of Harry Kane.
During his speech after receiving the award, Odegaard said: "I want to say thank you for this award, thank you to everyone who voted for me.
"A lot of great candidates and within the team [Arsenal] there would've been a lot of worthy winners. I want to share this [award] with the whole team and also say it's great to see the club being recognised here tonight with all the awards.
"It shows how far we've come as a club and what we're doing this season is very special, so I'm very happy to be a part of that. I'm sure there's more to come - so I'm very excited for the future."
Manager Mikel Arteta was awarded for his fine work this season with the Manager of the Year gong, whilst Bukayo Saka was also nominated for the Player of the Year award, but scooped up the Premier League Young Player of the Year award ahead of teammates Gabriel Martinelli and William Saliba instead.
