Mikel Arteta believes Emile Smith Rowe increases Arsenal's 'pace and rhythm' going forward.
The 20-year-old attacking midfielder has become a fixture in Arteta's side since the turn of the year.
Asked about his performance in the 0-0 draw with Manchester United, Arteta said: "He played a really good game.
"Even in the first half when he got involved I think he made a real difference.
"I think he increases the pace and the rhythm of the team when he's around the ball and defensively he's working so hard as well. I think overall again he had a really strong performance."
