\u2018I\u2019ve never seen someone like him,\u2019 he told Arsenal\u2019s YouTube channel. \u2018He\u2019s the first in the dressing room and the last out. He\u2019s very professional and always wants to fight, even in the training sessions.<\/p>\n

\u2018I really enjoyed playing with him, he made me better on the pitch. He\u2019s a good guy and a good friend. Of course, I gave him a lot of assists! If I gave him two assists, he would score twice.<\/p>\n
