Midfielder Lucas Torreira has heaped praise on Arsenal teammate Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, hailing the forward as 'a goalscoring beast'.
The Gabon international has enjoyed a successful period with the Gunners since January 2018, contributing a total of 48 goals from 72 appearances in all competitions.
Seven of those strikes have come from as many games during the current campaign, and Torreira has talked up the form of the 30-year-old.
The Uruguayan is quoted by the Evening Standard as saying: "Auba is a fantastic player, he's a real beast for goals. He's got that nose for goal.
"Whenever he has the ball, he always is looking to shoot and to score so, for us, it's really important he's in this kind of form that he continues to help us, not just in terms of goals but also with his spirit and the hard work that he puts in in terms of marking and without the ball as well."
Aubameyang will be hoping to add to his tally when Arsenal face Manchester United at Old Trafford on Monday night.
