I don't want this Norwegian kid. Thankfully we have a transfer ban.
We have our talents.

Not that we are getting him anyway, but...
What harm is he going to do by having him around?

Everyone talks about him like he's the centre of the world. I don't like it.
Just my feelings, wouldn't be too bad having him around but come on, we should produce talents and not buy them from around the world.

Not his fault if he's talented enough to be discussed about around the world.
You sound like you want Barcelona to pick up youngsters that prove they are good ONLY after they joined Barcelona.
It doesn't sound like a legitimate complain. Actually, that makes no sense.
I wouldn't mind him signing at Barca.

Odegaard is much better than Halilovic was at the age of 15.
I would personally take 15 year's old Odegaard over 18 year old Halilovic, but ok.
(I don't think that Halilovic will make it at Barca, so I am also biased towards Odegaard)

If you have the chance to get one of the most highly rated young talents in world football you have to grab it, no matter what.

Exactly. And even though Alarcón is attempting the "Norwegian bias" argument again, which is a fallacy, I honestly think that Odegaard is better than Halilovic right now as well. Better ball controll, better creative vision, better passing, less egotistical. The whole lot.

Not saying he wont be good, but for me its enough reason to be sceptical when he play in a poor league. I dont think most of you know how bad it is.

He looks pretty good in this video, playing for a senior NT team:
For a player who isn't even 16...

He is obviously talented. I dont know how talented a 15 year old shining in the norwegian league and playing for the nationalteam can be, but what i can see from the videos about him is that he has fucking balls. I mean 90% of the 17-18 year olds ive seen, play for a pat on the shoulder from the coach. Safe passing, keeping posession, dont do any mistake and stuff. And this guy here is actually trying to make something happen with almost every touch he has.. Its a bit like Robben or Di Maria in a way. No idea how good he is at 15, compared to others at that age, but even if hes not really the "talent of the century" his confidence is quite relevant on how he will develop.

He's got a hilarious name 
But this was nothing spectacular. He's not a class player yet, based on this video.
well,Allsvenskan has also been(especially around 2000-2006) crap of late (certainly not that far behind Tippeligaen at all regarding the lack of performances&technique but it has given birth to Zlatan....Exception could occur really,let's wait and see if this kid is one
