Arsenal ace Cazorla: Size doesn't matter in Premier League

Arsenal star Santi Cazorla says he's handled the transition to the Premier League without any problems.

Despite standing just 5ft 6in, Cazorla has adapted quickly to the more physical English game.

The ex-Malaga midfielder told the Mail on Sunday: "I don't see an advantage, nor a disadvantage. Ultimately football is played with the ball and isn't dependent on your height or strength. In Spain there are strong players as well, as in all leagues. The Premier League is characterised by its physicality but I'm adapting very well so it's not much of a change."
