Arsenal hero Paul Merson's verdict of Martin Odegaard has been proved spectacularly wrong in recent weeks.
Odegaard joined the Gunners on a short term loan back in January of last season before eventually completing a permanent transfer to the Emirates Stadium in August.
However, Merson claimed that Mikel Arteta was making a mistake by signing the Norwegian international on a permanent basis, stating that it was a 'lazy' signing by the north London outfit.
