A number of Arsenal fans have taken to Twitter to rave about Dani Ceballos following the Gunners midfielder’s impressive display in Saturday’s Premier League victory at the Emirates Stadium.

Mikel Arteta’s charges hosted West Ham and claimed all three points thanks to Alexandre Lacazette’s 78th minute goal, the Frenchman tapping home from Mesut Ozil’s header.

Arsenal had a tense wait while VAR went over the goal, which ruled in their favour as Issa Diop had played Ozil onside by a few inches.

Ceballos also played a crucial role in the Gunners’ triumph as he pulled the strings in the early stages, then moved further up to allow his side to take control of the game.

As the game went on he also contributed defensively, assisting the likes of Sokratis with many important contributions.

The Real Madrid loanee had fallen out of favour under former Arsenal head coach Unai Emery but very much has a new lease of life under Arteta.

During and after the encounter, plenty of Arsenal supporters sang the praises of the £15million player on social media:

The result sees Arsenal edge up to ninth in the Premier League table on 40 points, just five points adrift of fourth-placed Chelsea.

Up next for the Gunners is Wednesday’s Premier League trip to reigning champions Manchester City, with Arteta coming up against his former boss in Pep Guardiola.
