“That display was disgraceful. He has no business being in the starting lineup again, or I’ll hand in my armband,” Martin Ødegaard blasts an Arsenal player after humiliating loss to Bournemouth.

BREAKING NEWS: Ødegaard Slams Arsenal Teammate After Shocking Bournemouth Defeat

Tensions are running high at the Emirates Stadium after Arsenal’s shocking 2-1 defeat to Bournemouth on Saturday, and it seems the frustration has boiled over in the dressing room. Arsenal captain Martin Ødegaard reportedly launched a scathing attack on one of his teammates, expressing his anger over what he described as an “unacceptable” performance.

According to reports, the Norwegian midfielder, who has been one of Arsenal’s standout performers this season, was visibly furious after the final whistle. In a heated exchange with the coaching staff and players, Ødegaard did not hold back his feelings about a particular player’s display during the match.

“That performance was unacceptable,” Ødegaard allegedly said. “He shouldn’t be included in the lineup again, or I drop my band.”

Though the player in question has not been officially named, speculation among fans and pundits suggests it may be one of the club’s defensive players, who came under heavy criticism for their role in Bournemouth’s goals. The defeat dealt a serious blow to Arsenal’s title aspirations, leaving supporters and club insiders deeply frustrated.

Ødegaard’s remarks reflect the growing tension within the squad as pressure mounts on manager Mikel Arteta to turn things around quickly. After a promising start to the season, Arsenal’s form has dipped alarmingly in recent weeks, with defensive errors and lack of urgency becoming all too common.

Fans on social media have reacted strongly to the reported incident, with many backing Ødegaard’s passion and leadership, while others worry about possible divisions within the squad. Some supporters even demanded immediate changes to the lineup ahead of Arsenal’s next crucial fixtures.

Club insiders have yet to officially comment on the captain’s outburst, but sources close to the team suggest that a clear-the-air meeting may be scheduled before their next match. Mikel Arteta faces a tough task in restoring confidence and unity within the dressing room, especially with vital games coming up in both domestic and European competitions.

As the fallout from the Bournemouth defeat continues, all eyes will be on the Arsenal squad in the coming days to see how they respond to both the result and the captain’s powerful statement.
