William Saliba said with Martin Odegaard back from injury Arsenal is firing again.
The Norwegian picked an ankle injury in early September and the 25-year-old was sidelined for 12 Arsenal games as a result. In his absence Arsenal had a run of poor results and are nine points behind league leaders Liverpool.
Odegaard was star of the show as Arsenal beat Notttingham Forest 3-0 last Saturday, he was also outstanding in their Champions League 5-1 win over Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League.
“I think he’s one of the best midfielders in the world and we are so happy to have him back. We are better with him so I hope he won’t get injured again,” Saliba told the club’s website
“Of course, we have to enjoy playing with him. We can see since he’s back we are better.
‘He’s top three [in the world]. I don’t want to put too much pressure on him, but I think top three. I love this guy.”
