As the Gunners pursue their first Premier League championship in 19 years, Martin Odegaard claims that there are “no limitations” to what Arsenal can do this year.
After suffering just its second loss of the season at Everton last weekend, Arsenal moved five points ahead of the league’s defending champion Manchester City at the top of the standings.
After Arsenal hosts Brentford on Saturday, the title-chasing teams face off at the Emirates Stadium the following week, with Odegaard’s attention firmly placed on the Gunners’ London rivals for the time being.
The Arsenal captain told the Players’ Tribune, “We’re in the title battle right now. There is still a long way to go, and I assure you that nobody is considering May just yet.
It’s an overused expression, but we’re taking it one game and one practice session at a time. At a time, one piece.
The former Real Madrid midfielder intends to stay in north London for many years because he thinks Arsenal has proven itself this year.
There are no boundaries to what we can accomplish, so if there is anyone left who still has doubts, take it from me.
“No one can disprove my assertion. I feel like I’m going to be the club captain for a very long time, and I’m extremely proud of that.
Additionally, the 24-year-old was complimentary of manager Mikel Arteta.
It’s difficult to describe, he said. “He’s intense, passionate, and perhaps a little insane, but when he talks, you know that whatever he says will happen.
“He was aware of all the necessary adjustments at the club.
“He explained to me how I should fit in and how I should advance. I had the strong impression that he was on to something very exceptional.
