Arsenal starlet Josh Dasilva says that he is constantly learning from midfielder likes Santi Cazorla, Yaya Toure and Paul Pogba.

The lanky 18-year-old was recently asked to give up his striker role to play in midfield by the club's academy, and he claims that he is headed in the right direction following the transformation.

He told the club's official website: "I try to watch and learn from Santi Cazorla, but a lot of what he is able to do is because of his low centre of gravity.

"I'm almost six ft two, so I take what I can from him, but also other tall strong central midfielders like Yaya Toure and Paul Pogba.

"I use my power and strength but also technique to try to make opportunities for the team and arrive in the box to score goals too. I have my defensive duties too, but playing slightly in advance of the holding midfielder is my usual position.

"I really enjoy training games and playing alongside Francis Coquelin. He has helped me a lot. He trains with the same passion that he plays and he is very vocal, which has made me more effective in the role."
