While the headlines have been dominated by his former captain, Mikel Arteta has paid tribute to the impact made by Arsenal ’s current skipper Martin Odegaard.
The Norwegian attacking midfielder, 23, leads the Gunners into battle at Manchester United on Sunday on the back of the Premier League ’s only 100percent record so far this season.
Odegaard has scored in two of those five wins out of five. He has also provided a quiet leadership as the momentum in the red half of north London starts to build.
