Arsenal fans have praised the performance of Dani Ceballos against Benfica last night.

Ceballos was in brilliant form for Arsenal, as they picked up a 1-1 draw with Benfica.

The Gunners may not have produced their best display – particularly in terms of finishing – but Ceballos did manage to show his quality.

The Spaniard progressed the ball through midfield well, and completed 74 passes during the game.

The Real Madrid loanee also made two tackles, recovered the ball eight times and made two interceptions to show the defensive side of his game, in an all action performance.

And Arsenal supporters were very impressed by the display that Ceballos put in.

For Ceballos it is important that he does impress in the coming weeks.

With Thomas Partey edging closer to fitness his place in the team is sure to come under some pressure, and if he is to keep his starting spot then he will need to keep producing performances of this quality.
