Should we worry about Odegaard and Partey?

It now marks back-to-back games of poor football from Arsenal’s captain. There is just something about that armband, isn’t there?

Odegaard didn’t look at all like the player we know him to be, and he was taken off with 20 minutes to go in a crunch Champions League game. Not panic stations yet, but it’s getting worrisome.

What is at panic stations is Thomas Partey and his inability to stay fit. Since arriving in north London, it has been one thing after another with the Ghanian, and his latest muscle issue makes us wonder when we will see him in an Arsenal shirt again.
