The player Wenger mainly praised was Odegaard.

Under Odegaard's combing, Arsenal got a full 28 shots in this game, and pressed Norwich in the second half to rub it!

Although the final score was only 1-0, on the field, Arsenal won completely!

"Odegaard is an absolute genius, an absolute midfield master! The big picture, the scheduling, are all top in the Premier League, and his performance reminds me of Cesc Fabregas at the age of 17. ”

"This young Arsenal team will be led by him to the Premier League... The top four launch a strong impact! ”

In addition to Arsene Wenger, all the big Vs and celebrities in the football world are also full of praise for Odegaard.

The Norwegian Odegaard, who came from Real Madrid, spent a loan spell at Arsenal last season and spent a short period of adaptation, with a mediocre performance. Arsenal finished eighth last season and missed out on European competition.

Just when everyone thought Arsenal would not continue to sign Odegaard on loan, Arteta overrode the crowd and insisted on buying the Norwegian star from Real Madrid.

Odegaard started the third round away at Manchester City in a 6-5 win over Manchester City.

In that game, the brightest player was naturally Zheng Yaxin, who scored five goals, but Odegaard's play in midfield was equally impressive.

In this game, Odegaard took over the game directly, and most of Arsenal's attacks were launched from him, and finally formed a shot.

Such a midfield brain is exactly what Arsenal is in dire need of at the moment.

Of course, this is not to say that players like Zheng Yaxin who can keep goal and forward are not the players that Arsenal urgently need, but compared to goalkeepers and strikers, the scarcity of midfield masters is higher, and it is more difficult to find replacements.

Looking at today's European leagues, there are only a few people who can be crowned as midfield masters such as Modric and De Bruyne.

The teams of Luka Modric and De Bruyne are also the top teams in the world because of them.

Modric's Real Madrid club has won four of the Champions League titles in the last seven years, and his country, Croatia, was the runner-up in the last World Cup!

De Bruyne's Manchester City club is the current leader of the Premier League, having won three Premier League titles in the last four years, and his country, the Belgian national team, was third in the last World Cup and is currently ranked first in the world!

You know, neither Belgium nor Croatia used to be a traditional football powerhouse.

That's what a midfield guru can bring to the team.

There is no doubt that Odegaard has the potential to do that as well.

Domestic, live broadcast 9 football forum.

As soon as the game ended, Arsenal fans used their brains to praise Odegaard in different ways.

"Brothers, it's time to fill in the blanks after the game again."

"Everything is inferior, but ____ (Odegaard)."

"Produced by Real Madrid, _____ (must be a high-quality product)."

'We at Arsenal are _____ (invincible).'

"With four consecutive wins in the opening game, you don't even want to shout ___ (Brother Tazi)."

……

Inside the Emirates Stadium.

It's time for the post-match interview that journalists are most looking forward to.

As is customary, the coach of the visiting team should be interviewed first, but the reporters directly surrounded Arteta, who was full of spring breeze.

Because the Norwich coach was still sulking on the sidelines and didn't come.

"Mr. Mikel, after winning this game, your team is now on a four-game winning streak. At the top of the Premier League table, what do you think of this season's Premier League title? Are Arsenal ready to compete for the title? ”

'Of course not, our goal this season is still to fight for the top four, and the title will end up being Manchester City and Liverpool.' Mikel Arteta once again reiterated Arsenal's lack of title thinking.

'Our players are very young and inexperienced, so if we can, next season or next season, maybe we will be able to compete for the title, and this season we aim to finish in the top four and get back into the Champions League.

"Well, Mr. Mikel, if Arsenal do finish in the top four this season and return to the Champions League next season, are you ready to meet Bayern Munich or Barcelona in the group stage?" The BBC reporter suddenly asked a very sharp question.

There is a reason for this question.

On April 1 last year (April 1, 2020), the Champions League official was idle and deliberately reviewed Arsenal's previous 8 years of Champions League history:

Three years for Barcelona, five years for Bayern.

Arsenal are hung up by these two teams every year, and often score double-doubles in two legs.

Even the opening song of the Champions League, transliterated into Chinese, is full of malice towards Arsenal: "Kick Barcelona, kick Barcelona, kick Bayern Munich, our factory has collapsed." ”

Arteta's face darkened: "When we return to the Champions League, you can ask me that question again." ”

With that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Journalists instead surrounded Odegaard, the best player of the match.

And Zheng Yaxin, who did not score or assist in this game, was ignored.

Media people are like that, they only chase the highlights.

Zheng Yaxin didn't feel lost, but was happy to be quiet, and slipped away after packing up his things early.

After the reporters finished interviewing Odegaard, they finally waited for Falke, who was long overdue.

Even after a long time since the game, Norwich boss Farke is still a little frustrated.

Without waiting for the reporter to ask a question, he sprayed directly.

'In the first half we controlled the game and scored but it didn't seem like the whole world wanted us to win, so that didn't count.

"If that goal hadn't been blown off in the first half, we would have at least got a draw today!"

"Frankly, today's decision was terrible!"

'We [Norwich] can lose, we can go back to the Championship without being in the Premier League, but we want to play in a fair and just environment!"

After saying this, Falck shook his hands and walked away in a huff.

He decided to appeal to the FA as soon as he returned, lodged a solemn protest against the unfair penalty.

Norwich lost too aggrieved!

It's tolerable, it's unbearable!

However, on the Internet, public opinion is not on the side of Norwich, but on the side of Arsenal.

No way, Arsenal have more fans around the world, while Norwich have almost no foreign fans.

"Frankly speaking, although Oliver is nicknamed the Blind Man, there is really nothing wrong with the penalty in this game."

"That's right! Our factory has suffered too many losses in the referee, even if it is our turn, it will be our turn to take advantage of it! Norwich? I think it's better for them to prepare for the next round of the league and get their first point of the season than to be honest with the referees. ”

“……”

Not only is public opinion on the Internet overwhelmingly supporting Arsenal, but even newspapers such as "Manchester Evening", which has always supported Manchester City and Manchester United, and "Liverpool Echo", which supports Liverpool, have also remained silent about Arsenal's behavior in this round.

There's only one reason why they don't jump out and question Arsenal.

That is, from the inside, I didn't see Arsenal as a title rival at all.

Even The Sun, which has always been fond of being weird towards Arsenal, has chosen to ignore the refereeing incident......

On the BBC forum in the UK, a Norwich fan started a discussion:

"If Arsenal finish in the top four of the Premier League this season because of this win, squeezing out Tottenham and Manchester United, I wonder if Tottenham and Manchester United fans will still be able to laugh? If Arsenal finally wins the championship because of this gain, I wonder if Manchester City and Liverpool fans will still laugh? ”

Below the post are almost all answers.

"Arsenal won? How many dishes, the landlord actually dares to say such a thing? The comment garnered nearly 200,000 likes.

"The landlords don't really think Arsenal will win the title, do they?" The comment garnered nearly 120,000 likes.

"The Arsenal players are still too young, all of them are children around 20 years old, you can't win anything with a group of children!" The post received 330,000 likes.

Well, Liverpool legend Alan Hansen's remarks have been dragged out again.

The phrase "you can't win anything with a bunch of kids" comes after Manchester United's 3-1 defeat to Villa in the first round of the 1995-1996 Premier League season. On the BBC's ace football show 'Match of the Day', Liverpool legend Alan Hansen famously made his claim about Manchester United:

With a bunch of kids, you can't win anything!

That season, Ferguson won the Premier League title with this group of children! After that, he won the Triple Crown with this group of children and slapped Alan Hansen in the face.

After that, whenever a young army is born, Hansen's words will be taken out and whipped.
