Arsenal news: Unai Emery singles out Matteo Guendouzi and Lucas Torreira for praise following Manchester City defeat
Arsenal boss Unai Emery has praised the performances of Matteo Guendouzi and Lucas Torreira in the 3-1 defeat to Manchester City.The Gunners were soundly beaten at the Etihad thanks to a hat-trick from Sergio Aguero, and Emery admits his side were comfortably inferior on the day.2

Guendouzi was Arsenal’s standout performer against City

However, the Spaniard reserved special praise for his two central midfielders, who showed plenty of promise.“They [Man City] showed their superiority at the end of the match,” he said.“Im very happy with Matteo Guendouzi and Lucas Torreiras performances today, but they also need time to improve and to take confidence, to take experience for their future here. “With the result, its not easy to say that, but there are some positives that we can look at from our players today.”Guendouzi, 19, and Torreira, 22, were both signed during the summer transfer window after the appointment of Emery.Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville also highlighted the performance of Guendouzi and suggested the Arsenal boss should build his team around the 19-year-old sensation.2

Torreria impressed despite ended up on the losing side

He said: “[Emery] is finding out a lot about his players all the time. For instance, Guendouzi I thought was fantastic.“Nineteen years of age that was a really good performance and he can build around things like that.”Both Guendouzi and Torreira have been a big hit at the Emirates and, despite their obvious disappointment, Arsenal fans on Twitter also raved about them yesterday.

Hes far from perfect but, for his age, Guendouzi is sensational.— gunnerblog (@gunnerblog) February 3, 2019

My god Guendouzi really is the real deal isnt he?— OpinionArsenal (@arsenal_bn) January 29, 2019

Guendouzis best performance so far and its away to City. His mentality is probably the most impressive thing about him.— – (@RegistaXhaka) February 3, 2019
