When Arsenal went 3-0 down at West Ham United on Sunday few would have expected anything other than a home win at the London Stadium, but with the help of the brilliance of Martin Odegaard the Gunners came away with a point.
Odegaard has improved with every match since signing on loan from Real Madrid in January and, after another commanding performance in Arsenal's remarkable comeback, Gunners fans will be hoping he makes that deal permanent, according to Alan Shearer.
The Premier League's record goalscorer has placed the Norway captain at the heart of his Team of the Week.
