Speaking on his YouTube channel, Adrian Clarke<\/a> has been discussing Dowman\u2019s performance against Tottenham, and he noticed something particularly interesting about the 15-year-old.<\/p>\n Indeed, according to Clarke, both Martin Odegaard<\/a> and William Saliba<\/a> were continuously passing the ball to Dowman.<\/p>\n Clarke noted how often Dowman was receiving the ball from both Saliba and Odegaard, two of Arsenal\u2019s most senior players.<\/p>\n This is a real sign of how much Arsenal\u2019s squad already rate Dowman in that he\u2019s already trusted as an outlet by both the club captain and arguably the club\u2019s most valuable player.<\/p>\n \u201cMax Dowman, when he came off the bench, no surprise there he looked lively. He put in a beautiful cross to Zinchenko, they kept feeding him the ball, Odegaard and Saliba, they kept giving the ball to Max Dowman. He was as positive as you\u2019d expect him to be,\u201d Clarke said.<\/p>\n What Martin Odegaard has said about Max Dowman<\/p>\n Odegaard and Saliba clearly rate Dowman as a player, and Odegaard has already hailed the youngster for his quality.<\/p>\n Indeed, Odegaard has praised both Dowman and Marli Salmon for the ability they have shown at such young ages.<\/p>\n![\"Max](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2226645652-1024x683.jpg\")
