Arsenal fullback Cedric Soares has heaped praise on teammate Gabriel.
The Brazilian centre-back has been excellent for the Gunners since arriving from Lille last summer.
“Gabriel is a very good player," said Soares ahead of Thursday's clash with Benfica. “He's very strong and I think he's helping the team like all the other players as well.
“Gabi has been very good since he joined Arsenal. He's a very strong and physical player.
“He's also quick and we are helping each other as well. He speaks the same language as me, so it has been very good for the team and I'm sure he will keep growing as a player at Arsenal.
