In a boost to Gunners supporters, Martin Odegaard was back in our starting line-up against Chelsea on Sunday, and despite missing 12 games was razor-sharp as he put in a huge shift to help us gain a 1-1 draw.
Despite being out of Premier League action since August, our captain pushed himself throughout the 90 minutes, seemingly becoming more influential as the contest evolved. He managed to unlock the home defence on the hour mark as he clipped in a delightful pass to assist Gabriel Martinelli, and no-one created more chances than his four during the game.
He won back possession and made more passes in the final third than any other player on both sides, and ended the game with a superb passing accuracy of 92%, completing 35 of 38.
Martin had 52 touches against the Blues, and you can see them all now and reflect on his comeback by pressing play on the video above.
