Great to have him back. Hopefully it continues.

Hasn’t been this good all the last season, and for most of this one.

Was getting quite worried.

Great performance tonight and some quality passes. Looks like he is getting back to his best :heart:

Remember the extremes when he returned just a couple weeks ago?

He’s looked much better this season, even before the injuries and I would argue he’s been showing glimpses of that since the end of last season.

He’s gonna be integral if we are to go on and win the title.

Totally agree with this. Just watching the highlights back on the train and his pass to Zubi for the second goal was exquisite!

Wasn’t that impressed! Overran in the first half, bullied in the second. Delicious assist for Zubimendi. Think he’s coming too deep to get the ball.

He always does this. Tonight was no different.

We don’t really need it from him with Zubimendi in the team. Think he’s coming too offers so much in attacking areas.

Yeah I could understand it with Partey, but with Zubi there is no need to do it. One of the reasons I like Eze playing as a 10 with Rice and Zubi.

On reflection, I’ve been on Odegaard’s neck this season. He’s delivering output now. Quality goal two games ago and a sweet assist last night. This level of performance is more than what Eze has been showing (it should be by the way). Keep it up Martin.

Maybe he’s had a ribeye over Xmas or maybe the baby is sleeping?!

Our team press is just so much better when he is playing. If he can add goals and assists to that, we’re looking at a world-class player.

A return to form is clearly bubbling under the surface. Involved in everything, the very sticky glue of the team and is even taking shots off again.

Those Norse lungs are fine tuned for a second half of the season title chaaaarge.

Back into the Ø-Zone for our Martin? :ode2:

EDIT: I did not fully grasp the levels to the pass until now. The feint that moved Tielemans to open up the passing lane to Zubimendi :pinched_fingers:

He’s had a shit 15/18 months injury wise with two significant lay offs.

Yea he’s had a run or two already and not shown what hes doing these last few games but i always felt he hadn’t lost this side of his game.

Sounds like a vegan option on the Domino’s menu.

I’d order a slice, but I don’t like Oreos on pizza.

Assist and pre-assist.

This is why Eze struggles to get into the team when Marty boy is firing.
