It's just an assist, guys. Lingard had one yesterday. I don't see what the commotion is all about.

Kid oozes class but that was always evident. He is enjoying life in Real Sociedade right now.

Serious player. Glad he’s realising that monster potential.

I wish he would have gone to Ajax in the summer. Would have fit like a glove. Either way real happy for the kid he's supremely talented.

Would have been good for Ajax, but clearly he was ready for bigger things, CL notwithstanding.
I don't disagree. Every loan he has progressed season after season. He has a natural quality that is evident to see.

Exciting times for Norway for sure.

Same mate. Would have been brilliant to have him with us in the CL. He was good in the Eredivisie when he left (a bit inconsistent) but he seems to be doing stellar in Spain. Happy for the kid! Is he going to join the RM team next year?

No less than 10 key passes tonight! Second most on the field had 2. What a chance creating machine! Pure class so far in LaLiga. Will be interesting to see how far up the table La Real will end this season.

Damn! We should have bought him in the summer and let Pogba go.

We should do everything to get him and why not Haaland as well. Might be the only two reasons left to justify giving Ole a real run at building a squad of his own :lol:

He is just perfect coming in centrally from that right side. His eye for a good run combined with impeccable timing and his flawless weighted pass would make for a nice partnership with Greenwood.

It feels weird to mention the name of Martin Odegaard with Greenwood. It makes me feel they are players at similar level.

His season with Real Sociedad so far is nothing short of brilliant. Their best player so far.
But the Bernabéu is another matter. That place squeezes the life out of even the most accomplished of players.

His agent is Bjørn Tore Kvarme now I see. We could be in with a chance and our midfield will need strengthening eventually.

Wonder where he'd be if he had..

Martin Ødegaard vs Alaves:

1 assist
62 passes
84% pass accuracy
1 shot
10 key passes !!
1 dribble won
1 tackle won
1 aerial won

Away match vs. Sevilla on Sunday. Will be interesting to see if he can keep this consistency up, playing every minute this season so far.
Watching him play is like watching art unfold. Eye of Mordor pitch overview on this one.

First pages of this thread are pure gold.

I am especially impressed by the guy who in May 2016 wrote that a loan move to someplace like Sociedad would be good for him - best piece of advice ever given here ? :)
