Staggering Statistic Highlights Arsenal Star's Fall From Grace This Season

Arsenal's Martin Odegaard has struggled mightily for most of the season as pressure builds on the captain. | IMAGO/Sportimage

Arsenal were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday night losing 3-1 on aggregate to Paris Saint-Germain in the semifinals. Pressure continues to mount on the players, manager and club to lift big trophies, but their captain continues to garner criticism from all angles.

Amid Arsenal's struggles all season with scoring goals, the loss in Paris continued to highlight Martin
Ødegaard's drop in form this season. The Norwegian captain, in 38 appearances this season across Europe and the Premier League has 13 goal contributions (five goals, eight assists). He missed time in the beginning of the season recovering from an ankle injury, but his confidence continues to wane on the pitch. For more context: Arsenal don't have a single player in the Premier League with double-digit goals. Kai Havertz is the closest with nine as he's recovering from a hamstring injury.
