‘A lot of damage’: Premier League pundit claims two Arsenal players destroyed Newcastle today
This afternoon, Arsenal and Newcastle had an enjoyable match at St James’ Park. Both teams were aware that a victory would greatly benefit their goals, and they played with determination during the entire 90 minutes.
The first half was notably intense. Martin Odegaard’s goal allowed Arsenal to lead 1-0 at halftime. However, Newcastle also hit the post and had a penalty decision reversed by VAR.
The midfield was Arsenal’s strong point, as observed by Premier League Productions pundit Jim Beglin. He noticed that the combination of Odegaard and Jorginho created significant difficulties for Newcastle.
“It’s too easy for Arsenal’s midfield, they’re beginning to control it. Jorginho, and Odegaard a little further forward is doing a lot of damage. Work rate is one thing, ability on the ball is another,” Beglin said.
“After the frenetic start, it feels like Arsenal are a little more measured in what they bring to the midfield, but Newcastle need to be a lot tighter.”
Martin Odegaard’s goal in the first half was his 15th of the season in the Premier League, marking an excellent performance for the Norwegian player. In the meantime, Jorginho demonstrated his exceptional skill and experience in midfield.
Martin Odegaard’s exceptional performance this season would have put him in the conversation for the top player in the league if it weren’t for Erling Haaland’s remarkable performances. Odegaard has consistently delivered outstanding performances for Arsenal and is proving to be a great bargain for the team.
Jorginho, on the other hand, demonstrated his prowess in midfield. He played a crucial role in maintaining stability in the middle of the pitch, and in the intense first half, he remained composed amidst the chaos. Mikel Arteta would have undoubtedly taken note of his performance and appreciated his contribution to the team.
