Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney has heaped praise on Gabriel Martinelli following the attacker's impressive start to life at the Emirates.
Since arriving from Brazilian third-tier side Ituano, Martinelli has contributed 10 goals and four assists in all competitions for Mikel Arteta's side.
Tierney arrived at the same time as Martinelli during last summer's transfer window and has picked out the young Brazilian as the player who has impressed him the most.
During a reddit Q&A, Tierney said: "When I first did a full training session with the team I was put up against him and the intensity of his play was honestly mindblowing, and I thought to myself this is the standard I need to be at to play for Arsenal.
"I think his hunger and drive and his talent together at one is more than enough to be a world class player for many years."
Martinelli had registered three goals from 14 Premier League appearances prior to the coronavirus postponement.
