Martin Odegaard has warned Arsenal’s Premier League title rivals that the Gunners will be “even stronger” and hungrier after the World Cup break.
Odegaard believes the class of 2022-23 can end that barren run, saying of ambition at Emirates Stadium.
“I have said many times this club needs to be at the top fighting for trophies and fighting to be there at the top. That’s where we want to be and of course we are at the moment. But there is a long way to go and we are going to stay humble, keep working hard.
“We still have a lot to improve and we are going to come back even stronger and even more hungry than ever after the break. We have to stay calm. We have said it many times, it’s a long way to the end of the season. There are some good teams around us. We will play every game as a final, as we said, and that’s all.”
Arsenal are the only side to have scored in every Premier League game this season, while they’ve also got the joint-fewest goals conceded (11) and joint-most clean sheets so far this term (7). Indeed, the Gunners have kept as many clean sheets away from home this season (6) as they did in the entirety of 2021-22.
