Arsenal defender Cedric has praised Gunners teammates Martin Odegaard and Gabriel.
Mikel Arteta’s side are back in the Europa League tonight, taking on Benfica in their last 32 games.
Before the clash, Cedric was interviewed Club official website And was keen to praise his two teammates.
Both Odegaard and Gabriel were brought to the club by Arteta, although the former was only on loan in north London.

“Gabriel is a very good player,” Cedric said. “Gabi has been outstanding since joining Arsenal. He is a very strong and physically strong player. He is also fast and we are helping each other.
“He speaks the same language as me, so it’s great for the team and I’m sure he will continue to grow at Arsenal.
On Odegaard, he added: “He’s been fantastic. He’s a really good guy. He played really well in the last game. I just have positive things to say about him.
“He’s a calm guy, but I think he brings a lot of quality to the team and he’s doing great. He has a big future.”

There are some question marks about Arsenal’s recruitment – most notably the signing of Willian – but early signs are that Gabriel and Odegaard have been hit.
Cedric hopes the pairing will help Arsenal lift the Europa League at the end of the season.
Of course, that would get them back into the Champions League and possibly increase their chances of convincing Odegaard to stay beyond the end of the season.
