It is easy to play alongside Santi Cazorla - Arsenal midfielder Coquelin

Arsenal midfielder Francis Coquelin has revealed the ease of playing next to Santi Cazorla.

The duo have formed a strong working relationship for the Gunners in the centre of midfield and Coquelin has praised his more experienced teammate for making his job that much more effortless.

"It is easy to play alongside Santi because he is such a great player," Coquelin toldArsenal Player.

"We had a good chemistry last season, but there are many great players at this club that we can all play with each other.

"That is the great thing about this squad; anyone can play and we can still get a result.

"Last season with Santi was something special because we got a lot of praise, but the most important thing is that no matter who plays, we can get the result."

Arsenal next meet Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium on Monday night.
