Praise for Martin Odegaard for Arsenal v Fulham
Beglin said about Odegaard following his goal on PremierLeague.com: “Odegaard has led by example and if anyone deserves that bit of luck, it’s him because he’s been involved in everything they’ve tried to produce.
“It’s a kind break off Tosun and Leno has no chance, it’s totally out of his control – there’s not a lot he can do about that. Do Arsenal deserve that fortune? Yes, in my opinion.”
Impressive
