Jamie Redknapp hails 'influential' Martin Odegaard after his superb brace in Arsenal's win at Wolves and says the Norwegian is a difference maker... as Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink insists he is 'very hard to play against'

Jamie Redknapp has hailed the impact of Martin Odegaard this season and says he's become a massive influence on the Arsenal team.

The Norwegian scored twice for the Gunners in the 2-0 win over Wolves on Saturday that saw Mikkel Arteta's men go five points clear at the top of the Premier League.

The brace means Odegaard is now Arenal's top goal-scorer in the league this season and speaking after the game, Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp said that the 23-year-old should be seen as one of the club's most important players.
