Liverpool played their part in the Premier League title race by drawing Arsenal by 1 point at Anfield
Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard has said their collapse in the Premier League will be "painful for the rest of my life" following Liverpool's disastrous contribution to their title hopes.
The Gunners were the lead team of the English top flight last season when they were in the lead for most of the campaign. Mikel Arteta's side look set to do what the Reds have only done in recent seasons and usurp Manchester City's title. However, towards the end of the season, Arsenal lost their advantage in the title race and The Citizens took the lead on the way to a historic treble.
Arsenal had a gap against Man City in the final months of the campaign, but the draw with Liverpool set off a disappointing streak as they were held to a draw by West Ham and then Leeds. Pep Guardiola's side then scored four times against the north London club to take two points from multiple games in hand - seemingly dealing a psychological blow.
Speaking to Viaplay Fotball, Odegaard dissected where his team went wrong throughout the season. The Norwegian noted that his three-draw streak, which stemmed from a return to Anfield, has caused him to lose energy in his pursuit of success. Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus gave Arsenal a two-goal lead after half an hour at Merseyside as their tough game against the Red Devils looked to be coming to an end. However, the fight began with Mohamed Salah in stoppage time before Roberto Firmino equalized with three minutes remaining.
Liverpool walked away feeling like they were struggling after Aaron Ramsdale made a number of saves, while Ibrahima Konate was unable to regroup what should have been a winner, up front at close range. near the.
"It's tough, of course there's a lot of stuff coming up," he said. “We played against the team that won it all, it was close and even at the end, especially in the three games (which Arsenal drew), we lost momentum. There's a lot that can affect the season, we're close together and we have to take advantage of the disappointment to get closer.
"We'll try again and hopefully we'll get even better."
For the former Real Madrid player, it was another positive individual performance as he scored 15 goals, adding eight assists in 37 Premier League appearances. The idea that the Gunners can do everything to dethrone the team east of Manchester, but the experience of Guardiola's army has proved too much.
The 24-year-old admits he has 'mixed emotions' during the season's start:
"He (Martin Odegaard, 15) would probably be proud, I have to admit. It was a good season, I served well and scored a lot of goals. "I'm more important to the team, which is good but of course a tough end to the season still hurts. So I have mixed feelings.
“I think it will bother me for the rest of my life,” Odegaard continued. "We've been so close, I almost made my dream come true, I think it's going to be very painful for the rest of my life but we have to try again next year, when we do that (win the league) it will definitely be. Easier."
