Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has lauded Dani Ceballos for training like an 'animal'.

The Spaniard made his first start under Arteta in Sunday's 4-0 win over Newcastle.

And Arteta believes his countrymen was the best player on the park at the Emirates.

"Dani Ceballos is a good example," he said. "He was injured and when he started to train I didn't think he was fit enough. He completely changed his behaviour and trained like an animal.

'I thought he was the best player on the pitch."

He added: "Bukayo Saka is doing really well.

"He keeps his head down and wants to learn. He's peforming like a senior player."
