Don Hutchison, a former Liverpool midfielder, praised Martin Odegaard, the captain of Arsenal, and likened him to Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne.
Hutchinson praised Odegaard as a fantastic athlete who never panics and consistently makes the right choices.
In 10 appearances for the Gunners in all competitions, Odegaard had an outstanding start to the season, scoring four goals and dishing out one assist.
On September 30, the Norwegian scored two goals to aid Mikel Arteta’s team in a 4-0 Premier League victory over Bournemouth.
Fantastic athlete. Hutchison said to Premier League Productions (via HITC): “He reminds me of Kevin de Bruyne in how influential he is on the pitch and how good he is on the ball.
Do not actually panic. appears to choose wisely every time. He has good connections.
“I think he is the one,” he continued, “when you talk about Erling Haaland, de Bruyne, or Rodri, who make Man City tick, then I think Bukayo Saka, and even more so, this man, Odegaard, he is the top man.”
