Maybe he’s the one that needs to stay humble because he’s clearly not the best player in the premier league”- Arsenal captain Bukayo Saka ‘hails’ unbelievable £110M teammate who deserves more respect as he picks the perfect time to fire back at Halaand over the ‘stay himbel’ statement
Arsenal: Bukayo Saka hails ‘unbelievable’ Martin Odegaard as partnership goes from strength to strength
Star Gunners duo linked up brilliantly again during statement away win over Sporting CP in the Champions League
Bukayo Saka is delighted to be playing alongside Martin Odegaard again and hopes the Arsenal captain stays fit for the rest of the season.
Odegaard missed nearly two months of the current campaign after injuring his ankle playing for Norway at the start of September.
The midfielder is back now, though, and his return has inspired an upturn in form for the Gunners.
Arsenal followed up a 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest last weekend by thumping Sporting CP 5-1 in the Champions League on Tuesday, with Odegaard starring in both games.
The 25-year-old combined well with Saka, who scored in both matches, and the winger is delighted to be back playing with Odegaard.
“He (Odegaard) is an unbelievable player and the day he returned, there was a big smile on my face,” Saka told TNT Sports
