Martin Odegaard: What you do and don't see

The Norwegian playmaker had an outstanding first season as Arsenal's leader - he may be quiet, but he's important to the entire club

As the season developed, there were signs that proved he is more than just a quiet captain who leads by example.

Within that game, which ended 4-2, Brighton had a 15-minute period of dominance when Arsenal were 1-0 up. At a break in play, Odegaard and Eddie Nketiah shouted to Arteta in the dugout, which is in front of the AMEX Stadium’s press box. That influence can be seen in the minor choices made during play. Again, most will recall his long-range opener from the 2-0 win away to Newcastle United in May. Just 90 seconds before this, Odegaard was the one to engage Alexander Isak in midfield…As Newcastle try to find a new route forward, he then rushes into Bruno Guimaraes. It is more of a barge to unsettle the Brazil midfielder than an actual attempt at a tackle, but it sets the tone.
