Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has heaped praise on Spanish midfielder Santi Cazorla saying he’s in the “best form” of his career.
Santi Cazorla has been moved into a central role due to injuries to Mesut Ozil and Jack Wilshere, this move has benefited the Spaniard as he has notched five goals in his last nine games in all competitions, winning Arsenal player of the month for December.
“He is a very talented football player,” Wenger told reporters. “Since he has played centrally he has taken his game to another dimension, because on the flank, he was a bit more exposed to things where he was not at his best.
“In the middle of the park, he gets you out of situations where you are under pressure. He is always technically perfect and in our recent games he has certainly been in the best form of his career.
“Santi is happy to play, every day he is happy to be with the ball and to go out there. He is the perfect example for every young player to follow.”
