Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta has heaped praise on new signing Eberechi Eze after his goal against Port Vale in the EFL Cup on Wednesday, September 24.

Arteta, in his post match press conference, said the attacking midfielder will deliver more “magic moments” when he clicks with his new teammates.

The attacking midfielder who signed for 68 million pounds ($91.52 million) from Crystal Palace is yet to get into his stride at the London club despite creating two crucial assists for Arsenal against Manchester City and Leeds United.

“He played very centrally against a team that’s obviously with a 5-4-1, they are super compact inside, it’s not easy to find spaces but he’s very capable with the ball,” Arteta told reporters.

“He still needs a little more time with those guys to understand the timings, especially the things that he needs to do.

“Then actions like that will be more consistent and better for us. In general, very good – there is still a lot more to give …,

“At the end, what we want to do with him is to get him in positions, in spaces, that he can create his magic moments and the difference in the team.”

Arsenal, who host Brighton in the next round, visit Newcastle United in the Premier League on Sunday.
