How good was Martin Odegaard actually? #GOAT

11:15 How Odegaard Proved Everyone Wrong
12:55 How Arsenal Saved His Career - Sport
People thought Martin Odergaard was done after barely playing for Madrid but his loan spells at the Netherlands and Real Sociedad saved his career and now ballin at Arsenal as the captain.
Bottling*
Yea still 0 acheivement. As a madridista i hate this coward assgard . Can't compete with mmodric and kroos and ran away .
He should have worked harder instead of being a fragile baby. We don’t need him lol
@@mr.sushi2221 Bro was 15, you thought he was mentally matured at that age?
Balling going trophyless
I'm a die hard Madridista, but also love Arsenal. Very happy Arteta was able to convince Odegaard to join the club. Madrid did the right thing, you can't just wait and sign players with Odegaard's quality at 24yr young or near their prime anymore, unless you have oil/state money. Martin is amazing, but at that time, it's foolish to bench Modric, Kroos and Casemiro. I really hope Odegaard wins the prem with Arsenal.
Maybe next year 😂
He is the right guy for Madrid, just at the wrong time
@@slayingroosters4355😂😂 do you follow the Premier League. It might be this year
@@zochiang yes I do, it was a joke on the fact that they've bottled the league this year and will have to wait for next year to try again 🤦🏿♂️
Gotta beat Man City
In Norway, Ødegaard was almost treated like our own Messi when he first started playing. The move to Madrid didn't exactly calm the hype down, but after a few years of nothing happening a lot of people started doubting that he was gonna be what we all thought. But now at Arsenal it seems like he is finally turning into the player we thought he was 5 years ago.
@@a.demifemiflapo5795 basically, except Haaland went from zero to hero in what feels like 5 minutes. One second we have some guy in Molde with a weird dialect and just a couple years later he's setting records in the prem.
Well haaland was atleast 19 before he moved from norway compared to 15 year old Odegaard lol and once haaland got signed by dortmund at the age of 20 he got full playtime, not really comparable. @@i.blomen
Just put of curiosity, was there a similar amount of hype around Haaland or was it a bit more tame?
@@LjuboCupic1912 it was more tame. Because Ødegaard was so only 15 when he played his first match. And then he went straight to Real Madrid from Norway. While Haaland played for 3 clubs before he went to BVB. But now the hype is insane for Haaland in Norway.
The move to Madrid was what stunted his career in the early years. His dad was a bit selfish for choosing Madrid just because he could get the youth coach job. To go from Strømsgodset straight to Madrid was never really gonna work. Look at Haaland and Bellingham who planned their career steps gradually before moving to a top club. Glad he now finally get his career back on track with Arsenal, it could've been a lot worse.
It doesn’t matter what going on in the past, he is one of the best cam right now
As a Real Madrid fan i am overly happy and excited for him he is doing amazing at arsenal, i wish he had the patience to be the leader of the team next season good luck for him amazing player. I been following his story since 2015🎉
Its crazy I still remember the first time I heard Madrid signed a 15 year old Norwegian im glad he made it
@@karlosbravo6046 same I anticipated his career at Madrid to be legendary, but he on his path now hope he could get back to Madrid in 2 years being in top form
You know if Madrid added a buy-back clause on the transaction agreement? or a priority transfer option in case they want Odegaard back?
I'm a Real Madrid fan as well, but I really don't blame him for not "having the patience" to waste another 2 years of his career on our bench. Look at what he's achieved at other clubs when he's been out on loan. He had a slow start at Herenveen, but his performance level at mid-table club, Vitesse was so impressive that his individual stats were up there with the best players at Ajax.
His performance output actually regressed a bit after he was, again, loaned out to Real Sociedad. But that's where people started noticing him since it was in a more widely accessible league. And now he's the captain for Arsenal. We decided to pull him back from Sociedad for only half a season, and he spent that time mostly being benched before we suggested yet another loan move for him, but to a different club. I wish he had stayed at Real Madrid, but he's had the patience of a saint for us.
I've been a fan of Real Madrid since 1999, and I don't recall any other player on our books being shipped out on loan as many times as he did. I don't know what our plans for him were, but I don't think it benefits anyone to have to constantly change their environment.
@@gsxii1292 bro nobody would go back to madrid after that, their a shithole org for 99% of young prospects
I remember signing him all the way back on like fifa 15 or could of been 16 feels like he's been around forever lol crazy how far he's come arsenal have been a perfect fit for him
15
His "issues" at Castilla were heavily exaggerated for media traffic... Many of his team mates in Castilla came to his defense and he was frequently seen with them outside the pitch.
One this is extremely true...the modern game is impatient. People what on Vini for not scoring, meanwhile he was 18 and doing everything else on the field. Odegaard suffered the same thing and he's shutting a lot of people up
He was treated like shit by Zidane
@@daginn896 how so
@@hotdog9262When he was at Reals B team, Zidane trained it, and used his son in the position over Odegaard. Odegaard went on loan to Real Soceidad, and at that point Zidane was the head manager at Real. When Odegaard had a great season for Soceidad, winningt player of the months in laliga etc, and Real was struggeling, he called Odegaard back from loan, only to bench him (he had a 2 year loan contract with Sociedad, got pulled back a year early by Zidane). Much of this got people speculating if Zidane had something against the lad. I don't think he had, but he did not treat Odegaard well, that is for sure.
@@daginn896 does not seem to be much in there as clear `evidence`. the part with zidane managing his own son over odegaard(or anyone) is not great tho
@@hotdog9262Exactly, not much evidence, but it's clear that Zidane did some shady things, like always starting his own son over Odegaard and calling him back from Sociedad only to bench him.
Peace and blessings to Martin odegaard his discipline is very inspiring
Fun fact: That interview that you thought was at a "school festival" was actually during 17th of may. Our national day, where we celebrate that our country got its "grunnlov" back in 1814. I can tell this because first of the clothes everybody is wearing (that is not a suit) are "bunad". A traditional clothing. And secondly, they are marching in a big line down the town. Which is a tradition every 17th of may. In the line there are either a bunch of different pass time clubs or schools. Which all have their own banner.
The more you know.
I got to see him every week at Vitesse. I was excited to see that we loaned him for the season, but i could never see coming how good he would be. He just brings that magic to the game and since that season he got better every year
As somebody who only started being a fan again in last couple years I had no idea about this. I viewed Odegaard as one of best CAM in world but had no idea he was struggling just a couple years ago.
I always knew it was a bad idea to go to Real Madrid. The club bought him at the true height of their success in midfield, so there was no way he could ever break through. Going to Arsenal has set him free. It’s a match made in Heaven because Arteta is such a young coach himself. Arteta was proven to be a fantastic coach for the youth at Man City
Madrid being Madrid jus collecting and hoarding talent
what a player, what a journey, what a video👏👏
MY CAPTAIN. Whatever happens I am proud.
The way his career is going, it makes me sad that Halaand showed up. Makes me feel like it’s taking his moment away lol But if arsenal win the prem, I think this will boost his status again and solidify his legacy as one of the greats of his generation
Shouldn’t you be happy? He’ll rack up a massive amount of assists for his country and not only that, haaland and Odegaard are one of the best itw at their positions at the moment
Sadly its not gonna happen
Why would it make you sad? i think it's cool that Norway now has some of the most elite players at their positions and i hope they qualify for the 2026 world cup
Hes holding arsenal back. Plays way to safe and lots of missed passes. Saka is a ballon d'or winner if they get a World class playmaker
@@chalicek77 haha funny guy
Odegaard's story was one of my favourites! Great video as always❤
Great video, you really did your research! This is one of the best videos explaining Ødegaards career.
I'm so happy Odegaard found his place in Arsenal. He and his team made a horrible mistake choosing Real back in the day. I am convinced he would have emerged among the top players earlier if he had gone to a club like Ajax or Dortmund then. He was great all along. But in Real B and Herenveen he was really wasted. It was like using a F1 car in dirt rallies. As soon as he got the chance in decent clubs with better players around him he started shining again. So 3 years "lost" there. He would probably started becoming a regular at 18 or so in Ajax and ready for the move to a top club like Arsenal at 20-21.
No, don’t think so. Real knows exactly where to loan.
@@train_xc Real knew shit with him to be honest.
@@fuckingweeb9773 to be Frank he was supposed to replace either Kroos or Modric. Nobody expected they’ll be that good in their 30s.
And no way he would bench any of them.
Anyways real know business and they’re very good at it. Odegaard was like an term insurance. If one of KCM failed, he would took the position. But nobody failed.
@@train_xc Real didn't know shit. They did the same with Kubo, and the Japanese is thriving nowadays
ROFL, he was not making much difference in heerenven nor 3rd league at that qoung age and you think he would shine somewhere else. No, probably wont get out of bench even in Ajax or Dortmund, considering who they were playing at that time and their tactics.... lol internet is really place where whoever an say whatever.
As a huge Barca fan. I've always loved him, I saw that he was good and real were wasting his potential when he moved to Sociadad it became clear that he's world class
When I heard he is coming to Arsenal on Loan. I got some butterflies in my stomach because I remember every single team fighting to sign him as a 15 year old. I saw his loan and actually was not impressed. He had some magic but he didn't fit in. And then saw his first full season and felt like it was dream. He is so silky. This season he is honestly in contention for the player of the year if not for Saliba's injury. I'm sure we would do much better and can't wait to see him next season !
Even though he barely played in Madrid, I think seeing legends practice and the way they operate day in day out sure helped him become the player he is today
This documentary is perfect, God bless you.
if he just stayed 1 more season before the arrival of tchoameni and camavinga, he would be a starting xi. the problem in his career at madrid was there is just too many good midfielder that he can't compete, i mean good luck competing 1st pick with modric, kroos, james, and casemiro as your competition. aside from all of that he is really a good youngster, had he not joined madrid and play with bayern or arsenal before i'm sure he will dominate the respective leagues
As a Real Madrid fan that lives in Heerenveen it was beautiful to watch him grow. I still have a photo with him when I saw him in the supermarket
Really good documentary! Thoroughly enjoyed learning about his past!
🤡
You can just tell from the way he speaks that Odegaard is mature and wise beyond his years. His mentality, accompanied by his work ethic, make him a champion regardless of what happens. I expect even bigger things after seeing this
Great job mate
i'm so happy he's making it, i'm already a fan since he all the hype when he joined real
I still remember the news of Madrid signing him and then he faded, popped up with Sociedad, then back to flop at Madrid. It seems to be the end of his career, but Arteta has proven otherwise. Honestly I'm happy him doing so well with Arsenal, I had been a fan of the club, and seeing them finally able to perform again feels nice. They may not win EPL this year, but they've got good foundation to build on for success.
You need to do one of these videos on Roy Keane. There’s a great title in there and I feel like there’s a big misconception of him as a player. He wasn’t just a passionate player he had good technique too
He was too good too soon, so he was signed by real too early. But obviously, not many 16-17 year old is good enough to play regularly for Real. If he stays in Norway till he is good enough for the Eredivisie, then goes to Sociedad, then Arsenal, noone would call him a flop ever. He would be considered a player who was always successful in making the next step in his career.
In Madrid nobody called him a flop, only Barcelona media wanted to throw dirt on Madrid letting Odegaard go. As Madridistas we hope Martin would be patient and fight for a starting spot in our midfield, his talent is evident. However, the club realized he needed a lot of play time to grow, had to loan him constantly, since Modric and Kroos somehow are still in great shape. 😅 Madrid signed Tchouameni and Camavinga, the young Frenchman was a better signing for Madrid, same technical ability than Odegaard, but stronger A LOT stronger and faster player.
@@RaulEdu33 Even if in Madrid nobody called him a flop, he became quite forgettable. I remember hearing about this "kid" (at the time), and I immediately knew that his move to Madrid was too soon. It was greed a bit from him and mostly from his father. Well, unless he actually worked SO perfectly to the point of being indisputable (hint: he wasn't). Only later on he reemerged, but still, kinda not the same hype anymore. But he should have taken the steps slower and then do the jump.
@@RaulEdu33 bro you just compared a CAM like odeegard to a box 2 box CMs like Tchou and Cama lmao, madrid fans L
You're right. He took a big step too early. He should've taken the Haaland route; Salzburg, Dortmund, City.
@@RaulEdu33 it was real madrids fault for hyping him up so much.
Barcelona media didn’t know he existed 🤫🤫
Very mature way of thinking that is. I learned something that can possibly change my mentality in football.
What I really enjoy about your videos is they are inspirational to anyone who has a vision to become somebody in their live.
His favorite club growing up was Liverpool actually. His dad is a huge LFC-fan. PL is huge in Norway. I think it's more common for norwegian football fans to follow their english-team, closer than their own local team in Norway.
He debuted at 15, not 13. But yeah, still super super super young
And he was a Pool-fan, not a Gunner. Don't know where you get this from. But get it straight guy❤
You can be both, and that's what he was saying.
He said in an interview that his first shirt was a Liverpool one because there wasn't an Arsenal shirt in the shop, or something along those lines. Either way, he ain't going to Liverpool now lol, my f*cking captain!
Este rapaz ė do melhor que já vi em 30 anos
Vou ver o video...
THANK YOU DDOF!! THIS is such a important subject for me, ever since i was 9 i was hoping Ødegård either got better playtime at Real Madrid, or him to leave! [That was over 5 years ago now]
Im a tottenham fan, and when he went to Arsenal it kinda hurt me a little, but im just so glad that he got to play and show SOME of his potential in his career, and not waste his whole prime and skill on a spanish seat...
Warms my heart
I dont even watch football but this was enjoyable! Wow! Great storytelling!
In contrast to Odegaard a video about Alen Halilovic would be interesting
Where is that guy now? I remember him ended at Reading or something
@@finfog4590 returned to croatia with Rijeka, got contract terminated in jan of this year
This kid is very especial i remember the hype and the news bashing saying he wouldn't make it , glad is doing good at Arsenal
Please put all your videos on like spotify as a podcast, personally, I'll listen to all of them
Thank you for the documentary. As an Arda Güler fan i came here to watch what was the Odegaard case that everyone is talking about when Arda Güler is the topic. Now i see it clearly. Thank you boss. I wish Odegaard all the best.
He's so special 🤌🏿🥰
Would be nice to do an update and spend more time on the journey at the end!
Everyone said Florentino should put in a buy back clause because we could all figure out that he was going to be a star eventually , after all nobody just plays for Real Madrid at 16 . We wish him well always , watching him play in La liga week in week out against people he was supposed to replace like Kroos and Modric was great he was shining. Ødegaard,Oyazerbal and Isak were playing out of their skin, by far the best midfield and attack for 2019 in my opinion. Martin and Sancho were probably the most exciting U/23s that season . 🥲 what a time that was .
I doubt a Club like Arsrnal would have accepted a clause like that
Norway has hope...
Ole: 💀 bro come on.
I remember Odegaard and Halilovic who signed for Barcelona around the same time were suppose to be the next two Wonderkids then. It’s fair to assume they both had completely different outcomes but do you mind doing a video on him
Halilovic won treble with Man city in my FIFA 18. What are you talking about? 😂😂
Halilovic is another favorite but ODG is the goat
@@pranjalmishra4867 😂😂😂
I knew him when Madrid first signed him as a very promising teen from Norway i felt bad for him when he just couldn't get in the Squad and was being loaned everytime i thought he was gonna be another Kubo. Arsenal and Arteta literally saved this guy.
But Florentino Perez and Madrid scouting is just superb, they spot World Class players from a very young age just look at Hakimi, Theo Hernandez and Brahim Diaz, Regullon at Spurs almost made it but collapsed as first as he rose.
current situation would have been great for him to really get in the midfield of Madrid, with the slower transition from Modric, kroos to younger midfields. i really wanted to see him play in Madrid jersey more,. but alas, he is having his great days at Arsenal so i hope for his attainment there.
The best is yet to come my brother
I remember seeing him on the madrid reserves when I played career mode. And since I am an arsenal fan I was excited to see him
It's a beautiful journey of this young man yet. Pretty sure he gonna make an outstanding 2023/24 season
I think he needed the humbling at Madrid, and i don't mean that in a nasty way, I mean it more as a realisation that he still needed work to continue playing at the top.
He was already humble, Real didn't had any respect for the kid
@@ghost_kinggamer9561 for real. ancelotti said, he never wanted him but the clubs president thought it would be a nice marketing move. even if odegaard doesn't talk bad about real madrid today, I find it very questionable to treat a 15 year old kid that way
How on Earth did Real Madrid not give this guy a chance in their team oh wait at the time Luka Modric was still at the top of his game still is right now and Toni Kroos was another who also started every game. He had so many loan spells, but at Arsenal Martin Odegaard is finally fulfilling his potential and he found a permanent home. He's delivered this season and he's been brilliant on the ball with his passing and playmaking silky dribbling this season and he's added goals to his game too. I guess Erling Haaland isn't the only Norwegian taking the premier league by storm this season. When we talk about the best midfielders in the world in the last 5 years, Kevin De Bruyne is the first player name we hear but Martin Odegaard on current form is up there with Kevin De Bruyne on current form only and could he reach newer heights yes because he'll add consistency to his game. Martin Odegaard is top class and has been one of the best players in the premier league this season. Things didn't work out for him at Real Madrid, but at Arsenal Martin Odegaard is delivering on the promise he had as a teenager and he'll keep up his current level.
He didn't take so many chances there and thus didn't dictate so much of the play so it was a vicious circle.
For attacking midfielders yeah
Great player, great vision. But hey, are you benching Modric, Kroos, Isco, Asensio to put him?
Day 4: could you please do a video about an African player called Abutrika he is one of the best players in Egypts history that didn't play in Europe and some consider him better than Salah take a look at his story worth it.
It's so annoying when people number the days of their request, as if they are more entitled as the number grows.
@@inkjazz I hope it will work
In his best season he scored 18 goals. Peak Salah would score at least 50 goal in the Egyptian league 😀he was a good striker but calling him better than Salah is clickbait
I find it endearing
Ps: I have added abutrika to the list, but doubt I'll do a video on him anytime soon
@@DailyDoseOfFootballYT I could finally rest. I will stay waiting 🤞
I see Arsenal playing Madrid in the Ucl semifinals and Ancollotti regreting saying those words.
Im diehard Gunner. I always wanted him at Arsenal when he was Real Sociedad. I played fifa19 he was player of the year card. I really liked him at my team. My wish finally came true. XD
Really appreciate it if you do Roy Keane next
The most amazing thing about this video is how good the pronunciation of "Strømsgodset" actually is. Pretty close to spot on!
Can you do a video about kauri mitoma😊
Haaland learnt from his friends mistakes
It's sad when top talents sign to a club like Real Madrid where they compete against the best in the world. It's already challenging in the footballing sense but it's also discouraging and frustrating for the young lads. Chelsea, Real Madrid, etc., they are the dream killers. Look at Haaland, he's had a smart career. First at Salzburg, top player in the club, moved to Dortmund when he was ready, became the top player for the club, and now at Man City, playing his best football so far. That's how you progress.
He is just AN ANGEL 🎉♥
As an Arsenal supporter Odegaard is one of if not my favourite player and watching this inspired me to do the same
legendary video as an arsenal fan.
Madrid have the best midfielder trio in the world at that time, if a 16 years old can replace one of them, he must be crazy.
No one has forgotten. Its brought up frequently
You should try doing a video on Joaquin
Arteta I love you 😭 you got this generational talent forever grateful
Sometimes big clubs and eminent managers are responsible for ruining the careers of talented individuals. It is good to see that Odegaard did get the opportunity to outshine his critiques.
I’m so excited to see odegardd and haaland at WC 2026, they better qualify, that duo is top tier from such a small nation.
Please put robin van persie
Lucas could you do a video about a Rafael Marquez
O dono deste canal é português de certeza, a forma como pronunciou Casemiro diz tudo
Ayo Norway football team looks mad danger uk
it's modric who ruined his career at real madrid because odegaard couldn't bench him, even at 37, modric is still lights years ahead of odegaard. zidane said he had to let him go because it was a waste keeping him on the bench for real madrid
Some story wow😮
This guy is so fun to watch play
And now hes one of the best midfielders in the world (been the best in 2024 imo)
Actually quite a decent pronounciation of Strømsgodset!
Favorite wonderkid of all time, hands down
You should make a video on Alen Halilovic. He was too hyped like odegaard except he never reached his potential.
back in fifa 16 i always played him in career mode instead of isco love to see him on top
Any chance you can do a video on this enigma, Ricardo Lucas Figueredo Monte Raso known as Dodo?
When you have player like kross modric and case you are likely to ruin some career. But thats part and parcel of big club we lost hakimi, kovakic becoz of that legendary team. And its okay he was just at wrong time at wrong place we literally almost lost fede but it was his commitment that made him future captian. Just after his departure kross was injured and thats how fede became imp. One loss is other gains. Becoz of him we got cama so no hard feeling we tried but in end he was short on time and we were short on time. But is okay. It is what it is 👍🏻 happg for him but he is still not on that madrid level tbh he is good but still cant bench cama fede kross modric tbh so its okay
Hope he learns from this season and will grow more next year
Went from not getting enough playtime at Real to a baller at Arsenal
A few games away from finishing in 2nd place as it ended. Unfortunately.
Good story telling! Well done! Only £30 million!!!!
I remember him ar Heerenveen it was pretty cool
Captain fantastic is ours now❤
It was so weird when he came in at my club. Sc Heerenveen. You could see the potential was there however everything was half a second off and some lack of confidence. He didn't do great at Heerenveen especially at the start however he got back to basics and those became good and then he could finally start shining at Vitesse. He really should have gone to the Netherlands or Portugal first before going to Real. Would have probably developed faster / more. Also Vitesse's players where not that much better then Heerenveen's at the time. Also Odegaard wasn't planned as De Jong's replacement at Ajax. The idea was more he would play right with Ziyech moving centrally or in case Ziyech got sold.
From what I saw at a young age, he’s not the player I thought he would become.
It’ll be interesting to see how much he sells for.
I remember back in 2014 senior year a lot of people were saying this guy was the next Messi.
From this video I’m hearing more of real madrids decision to give him loans revived him and helped him in ways no one else could’ve
Faz um vídeo do Haaland sff, abraço!
he debuted for Strømsgodset at 15, not 13. And his favorite team growing up was Liverpool, cus his dad supported them too
Honestly best signing we've made since Santi Carzola
