"Odegaard has gone through a tough time this season with a few injuries. But he really has that quality in those little areas of the pitch he can get out of trouble. On his day he is different class. But Eze has bided his time. It's disappointing when you don't play but you have to keep working hard and show desire in training and showing the right attitude."
"He didn't play for quite a while but it is all about attitude beyond that. Being in training first, being ready to go. That's what I would have done and managers notice that. He got his opportunity again against Spurs and scored two good goals. But now he has to get his head down."
"I don't know what the team is going to be at the weekend because we know Chelsea are very strong in midfield. Palmer, Caicedo and Fernandez are all very good players. We know Martin Zubimendi and Declan Rice will play. I think Eze will probably start."
Arsenal face Chelsea in a crucial Premier League match while managing competition in attacking midfield between Martin Odegaard and Eberechi Eze. Odegaard has struggled with injuries and inconsistent form this season, while Eze has demonstrated strong attitude and desire despite limited playing time. Eze's recent brace against Spurs showcases his quality and readiness. Arsenal legend Ray Parlour emphasizes that Eze's professionalism in training and willingness to work hard when not playing have impressed management. Chelsea's midfield strength, featuring Palmer, Caicedo, and Fernandez, presents a significant challenge. Parlour predicts Eze will likely start based on current form and momentum.
