I think the idea is the media equivalent of cancer considering the understatement that the English value their heritage.

odegaard has a way of being the critical part of our cutback-style team goals, which mostly happen against teams who lose the midfield battle, but if the open space isn’t there and the other midfield has the discipline/presence, he isn’t really able to contribute and also has less opportunities to score

i wouldn’t categorize it purely on a bad team/big team basis, performances are a variable too
