Former Arsenal striker Perry Groves believes Martin Odegaard's form revival is due to Alexandre Lacazette.
Groves, who spent six years at Arsenal from 1986, was discussing Odegaard's performance in the 5-0 win at Norwich City.
“I was actually worried about Odegaard at first because you could tell he's an unbelievably talented boy at first, but he wasn't dominating games," Groves told talkSPORT.
“We used to watch [Mesut] Ozil and he used to frustrate at times. We wanted him to go and take the game by the scruff of the neck and be dominant in that No.10 position
“Odegaard is just starting to make that role his own, he's grabbing goals and assists and with Lacazette it's giving him that physical presence and a base to play from and he's got pace from [Bukayo] Saka and [Gabriel] Martinelli on both sides with him."
