Odegaard says Arsenal 'want to win everything' after Community Shield success
Martin Odegaard warned Arsenal's rivals that the Premier League champions want to "win everything" after starting their season by sweeping aside Manchester City in the Community Shield.
Arsenal captain Odegaard delivered a man of the match performance capped by the final goal in his team's dominant 3-0 victory in Cardiff on Sunday.
Riccardo Calafiori netted Arsenal's opener after just 24 seconds and Kai Havertz was also on the scoresheet before half-time in the annual curtain raiser to the English top-flight season.
Just four months ago, Odegaard lifted Arsenal's first Premier League crown since 2004 after they finished seven points ahead of second-placed City.
The Norway midfielder believes the dynamic display against City, now managed by Enzo Maresca instead of Pep Guardiola, showed the north Londoners have not lost their hunger for silverware.
"We played some brilliant football. Great performance and a great way to start the season," he said.
"We showed our level today. We're showed we're ready. We're serious and we want to do it again. We want to attack it. We want to do it again.
"When you get a taste of how nice it is you want to do it again. We want to win everything."
Installed as the bookmakers' favourites for a second successive title, Arsenal begin their Premier League charge at home to promoted Coventry on August 21.
