Martin Ødegaard was known by football fans the world over when he moved to Real Madrid aged 16 and was tipped as the next big thing. But he then just seemed to disappear off the radar before popping back up at Arsenal where he’s been one of the best midfielders in the league. So how did he get so good? Was he always this good? Join me for a story on how this boy wonder joined such a prestigious team, flopped, then reinvented himself out of the limelight, eventually picking himself back up off the floor and coming back with a vengeance to finally fulfil some of his early promise.

I was not expecting you to have 500 subs, that was such an entertaining video! hope you're gonna make more, ill be tuning in definitely!
Your editing sucks. I could hardly hear anything.
He’s always been good, the media and all the hype beast fans were trying to put him down probably because he ain’t make it in madrid
First of all he has Never EVER been a bad footballer and trust me its hard to say as a Swede but since he plays for Arsenal he gets a pass
He has been an amazing talent since day 1 its just that Zidane didnt like that Real signed him without him having a say in it and thats one of the reasons he never really got the chance in Real and when i heard that Arsenal was gunning for Martin i thought there is no way in hell we will be able to sign him but then hell froze over somehow and he signed and i have been stoked ever since.
He's the wonderkid who's finally realising his potential
Mate… talk slower
Madrid didnt use no 10 thats why he struggling so much there and of course they have modric and kross while at arsenal he basically target passing from CB or DM
ouch. "all of a sudden". guess you Europeans don't have the cognitive skills to learn things earlier
As a neutral, I hope he get away from Arsenal and how the fan base treats him. He is arguable one of the top 3 mids in prem, yet Arsenal fans shits on him. Just look at Lee Gunner. He should join another team asap
He will be the next Bergkamp
Legendary
And here he is, signing a new 5-year contract.
Good video, btw, apart from the 'bottling' part; nothing you can do with a thin squad when your best CB gets injured, and when VAR 'forgets' to draw the lines (plus a handful of other 'mistakes' that they later apologised for). 
Captain Ø has gone and signed through 2028 for Arsenal today, since we're talking about the stability he craves
Why dony you have more subs
Poor ending
What the future holds is Odegaard becoming a genuine Arsenal legend. Then when he want to go to real it’s gonna cost them a cool 2-300m. All arsenal need to do is tie him down to a long term contract and we’ll be laughing all the way the the bank and the Prem. Hopefully both.
He has not shown himself to be so good against great midfield players in great teams like Man City.
He can disappear in games.
Likely why he didn’t make it with Real Madrid.
It’s about confidence to get physically stuck in with intelligence and the commitment to get a job done.
Good luck to him.
Not all footballers are born to fit in as a natural Arsenal player. He is one born specifically to fit in ; in a typical Arsenal set up
Thank you for the break down
I want to see Odegaard at Arsenal until Modric age, and after we've won several PL and CL trophies. Really good video.
Sadly he still wouldnt start for real
since he was 15*
He has always been the best he just needed more time to play even at Madrid
As a neutral, with the way arsenal treats him, i would suggest for him to stay with arsenal. I can see him being one of arsenal lagends.
Been watching him since he was 15 and followed every loan move – there was never any doubt except that created by a media that don't watch games.
great vid, funny commentary. subscribed.
1 goal, 2 assists in 12 in his initial short term loan deal.. people wanted Maddison instead, I was sure he was perfect for Arsenal
Glad that the legendary cameraman was there to record his birth 0:16
“All of a sudden?” You are not a serious person.
He has been good since he was 16yrs
Yes, I did enjoy this video and therefore I drop you a like ;).
A funny side note. During the last week, Ødegaard has been trying to prevent history from repeating itself. Not for him, but for Norway's new hot shot Antonio Nusa. Ødegaard and Haaland are probably coaching him in career choices. Check out yesterday's match between Norway and Georgia.
The song is actually making it difficult to hear what the author is saying.
8:58 there's no way … Arsenal l make sure that doesn't happen
« All of sudden » broooo it’s been a long time
Sometimes the game could be so simple. You join a team and play all the time.
To: every fuckin one.
Stop making football content
We don't need the expert take on everything
If it didn't work out the first time, it won't work the second time. Arsenal through and through
he was always good certain ppl just needed to stop wanking over stats and watch him play
It's because he's been eating his wheatabix

I see Martin Ødegaard, I click IMMEDIATELY
Its funny how everyone forgets about the atleast 12 points of very dodgy VAR against Arsenal before Xmas. Almost as if it was set up for Arsenal too so call bottle it, oh the drama it couldn't havve been written, or was it? Besides that sour point of mine Odegaard has been solid and is worthy of being Captain and thanks to your video Im suddenly aware his early football career, and it all makes a bit more sense, his calmness, ability, finishing, experience before his age, everything, very happy he joined the Gunners and hope he does become part of something special.
Good content subscribed
I did find it interesting where I could decipher the parts whenever the background music dropped in volume. Why on earth such a piece could be interesting about an interesting player, from beginning to end is crowded out by overly loud music, I don't know. I hope you understand my annoyance. And red on black graphics was too.
Good content this. Props to ya.
my new favorite football related channel. please keep it up
Fuck off Madrid.
