Manchester United legend, Paul Scholes has suggested that Arsenal should have signed Jhon Duran or Alexander Isak during the January transfer window....Read Full Article >>➤
According to Scholes, either of the two strikers will make the Arsenal captain better.
Odegaard has been one of Arsenal’s most consistent players over the past four seasons.
The 26-year-old Norway international scored a goal in Arsenal’s Premier League 5-1 victory over Manchester City on Sunday.
“Imagine him with a centre forward, though. With a proper centre forward,” Scholes said on The Overlap when discussing Odegaard’s form at Arsenal.
“Martin Odegaard is a brilliant player, he can put a ball anywhere he wants. He hasn’t got that in front of him, a No. 10 needs that in front of him.
“I don’t think Kai Havertz is that type of player, even though he might make the odd run here and there.
“You are thinking Isak or Duran, the lad from Villa, if he had that in front of him, it makes him become a better player as well because he is move involved with goals.”
Duran left Aston Villa to join Al Nassr in the winter, while Isak remained at Newcastle United despite linked with Arsenal and Chelsea.
