I think he'll have a big boost being back in Spain tonight, back where he's from.



At the same time, he's got to connect Arsenal's play. I didn't realize how big he was because hadn't met him in person."You get in the tunnel and think, 'Oh my god, that's some profile for a midfielder.'"If you're building a midfielder, he's got a body to die for, if you're 6-foot-1, 6-foot-2, and have the legs, the power, that's the midfielder you want to be.

I really like him as a person as well."I think he's really getting into that class where he's becoming a world-class midfielder. He's maybe one we should've tried to grab from West Ham, I don't know whether we did, but imagine him in this midfield now."
