Really fucking pissing me off

Does the c mean crap

I was thinking of another four letter C word. That’s harsh but I can’t deal with him at the moment.

We need more from him but he’s been far from our worst player today so far.

Really going through a devolution as a footballer isn’t he?

Going the Martinelli route

Just as headless as him

Sad thing is, we all know he isn’t going to pull us out of it this game - it will probably be Rice or Saka.

He’s been fine btw and was involved in any dangerous situations we created alongside Saka but obviously we have to hold him to ridiculous standards because he’s the captain and that irritates people for some reason.

It’s mad that the pitchforks come out so fast for the guy who was once our best player back to back seasons.

If he doesn’t hit a 10/10 he gets criticised. Just got blamed for cala’s terrible ball out to him in the match thread ffs

Been better this half. If he’s got a set of balls, he gets us over the line in games like this.

He set his own insane standards, he was motm every other game for me for like two years as you say.

Thought he was slightly better tonight again, hope he can return to full pre-injury form sooner rather than later, would be much needed, that piercing pass through the defence made me remember what a gem he is when he is on it. Would love a season run-in with peak Ödegård.

I understand he’s nowhere near the level he was but people look for every little thing to criticise him for.

Beyond annoying. If ode dropped eze’s first half performance this thread would be on fire.

Perhaps, but it’s not unreasonable to expect your captain to lead from the front.

As an individual player he was ok.

As captain, leader and creative outlet, inadequate.

Should be subbed in for Eze not starting IMO. Eze has earned a starting spot,Ode needs to work his way back in with dynamite sub appearances.

Yeah I feel like I’m losing my mind with some of the Odegaard discourse I’m seeing, almost everything good we did in the second half was coming through him. It’s like he’s held to a different standard than anyone else in the squad.

He’s the captain.
