Part 4/7:
The loan arrangement seems mutually beneficial; Ødegaard can regain his confidence and playing rhythm at a club where he is guaranteed more game time, while Arsenal gets a talented player who can integrate into their playing philosophy. This strategy aligns well with Arsenal’s ambitions to not only secure immediate talent but to also build their young core with adaptable players. Furthermore, Ødegaard's ability to thrive in a dynamic system where the formation can fluctuate from a flat four to a three-man arrangement can provide much-needed depth as Arsenal faces a crowded fixture schedule ahead.
