Lucas Torreira joined Arsenal in the summer following his displays at World Cup. During this short period the Uruguaian could impress both fans and boss with his brilliant performances.
In new season he was awarded with three starts in the last Premier League games and played a key role in the 5-1 win over Fulham on Sunday.
Emery has praised the former Sampdoria man for adapting quickly and for having such a high work ethic in training.
“It’s his first season here at this level but he was playing in Italy which is a very hard competition also,” said the Spaniard.
“He is playing also with his national team, against big teams. And here, I think with his process he’s doing very well."
“The first is his humility to work every day, to listen, to learn," the former Paris Saint-Germain head coach continued.
"He is playing today in the middle, then right in the 4-4-2 and his performance is the same.
“I think his career is just starting and we want to do it with him, he can do it with us, giving us and giving him the best performances at the best level.”
