**Martin Odegaard made his** [**100th appearance as Arsenal captain**](https://paininthearsenal.com/martin-odegaard-hits-100-games-arsenal-captain) **during his side's 1-1 draw at Fulham on Sunday afternoon.**

Since first leading his side out in April 2022, Odegaard has helped transform Mikel Arteta's team from European place hopefuls to genuine Premier League title contenders. During that time, he has been at the forefront of some great victories.

Having achieved 66 wins in his first 100 matches as skipper, there's a litany of brilliant options to choose from, but we've tried our best to narrow it down.

Here are Martin Odegaard's five best games as Arsenal captain.

Fans can argue all day whether this should be classed as a trophy or not, but there's no denying that it was nice to see Martin Odegaard lift the Community Shield - his first prize as skipper.

Odegaard led his side against a Manchester City side fresh off the back of winning a treble. As always, he ensured his team were resilient as they equalised through Leandro Trossard in the 11th minute of stoppage time.

The skipper stepped up in the resulting penalty shootout and coolly converted his spot kick to put the Gunners on the way to victory. A 100% success rate from his teammates and stutters from Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri helped Arsenal to the trophy/shield.

His first piece of silverware as Arsenal captain to go along with a good performance, this result was certainly one of Martin Odegaard's best with the armband.
