Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has challenged his teammates to maintain their momentum and aim for victory in every Premier League game.
The Gunners are preparing to face Aston Villa after securing a crucial 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur in the north London derby during the week.
Odegaard believes the victory has given the team confidence, with Softfootball reporting that the Arsenal captain wants his side to build on the result as they continue their pursuit of the Premier League title.
The Norway international praised the atmosphere during the derby and urged the squad to quickly recover before returning to action.
It’s always a great feeling to win a derby. The atmosphere was incredible and the fans were really happy. We need that momentum now,
Odegaard said.
Arsenal are also competing in multiple competitions this season, meaning the players must adapt to a demanding schedule and be prepared to play every few days.
Odegaard insisted that the Gunners are ready for the challenge as they continue to fight for success on all fronts.
The Arsenal captain will now hope his teammates can maintain their winning form against Aston Villa and keep the pressure on Premier League leaders Liverpool.
