Havertz - “give him time”
Zubimendi - “give him time”
Odegaard - “give him time”
Martinelli - “Bruno will unlock him”
Gyokeres who scored 21 goals last season and is the 1st player under Arteta to do so - “RUBBISH SELL HIM NOW 🤬”
I really despise our fanbase so much
Martin Odegaard played 30 minutes in Arsenal’s 3-2 pre-season defeat against Borussia Dortmund — customary for returning players this summer — but impressed nevertheless.
At a time when Arsenal were not free-flowing, he was the one player threading passes in behind the Dortmund defence for Kai Havertz, Viktor Gyokeres and Max Dowman to chase.
Secure in possession when necessary, the 28-year-old looked like the Odegaard who lit up the World Cup with Norway. His role in this season’s Arsenal midfield was always going to be of particular interest. Would he be used as a No 10, combining with Eberechi Eze like in the run-in, or would he return to a deeper, all-action role that got more out of him at the World Cup.
More game time with returning players and new arrivals will be needed to truly assess that, but Arsenal’s captain looks in good shape.

David Raya was not expected back at Arsenal so soon but has cut short his break to warm up with the team despite not even being in the matchday squad 💪

Christos Tzolis is an output player, as shown by his four goals and assists in four games, and a penalty won. His dogged determination to impact in key areas will really shine when #Arsenal’s eight key player return; Bruno’s early passing will make his instinctive style to shine.
@elsathora Same in Norway, except from closing at 4pm on Saturday, and it was created more than 100 years ago when people drunk 60% spirits to keep warm. Now people drink Prosecco just keep happy 😅🇳🇴
