Arsenal hero Martin Keown is full of praise for Ben White and Gabriel after victory at Leicester.
Keown made 403 appearances for the north Londoners during his playing days and knows what it takes to play the position so well.
"They've been involved in the success since that heavy defeat to Man City," Keown told BT Sport after the clash.
"Gabriel, Ben White, forming a really good partnership - for me they've got everything.
“Gabriel, particularly, with balls in the box, the amount of times - I think he had the most clearances today. Really strong defensively."
Keown also spoke of goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale.
"You need a character," Keown continued. “I was always fortunate to play with some fantastic goalkeepers.
“He looks like a real character. The fans now love him. It helps when you're throwing shirts into the crowd but it certainly helps more when you're pulling off outstanding saves as he did today.
“On average last year he made the second most saves last season and his average was four.
“He is happier being busy and the really classy goalkeepers have to do this once or twice in a game and that's the next step as Arsenal progress and get better.
“But he had a lot to do today and Arsenal are thankful for that, that he was pulling off those saves. But in the future let's minimise what the goalkeeper has to do."
