Alexis Sanchez has stated that Santi Cazorla has made a big impression upon him since his move to Arsenal last summer.
The Chilean has had an impressive first season at the club since moving from Barcelona, scoring 14 Premier League goals and helping the Gunners to reach next month's FA Cup final.
Sanchez says that while he knew about Cazorla, he is now pleased to be a teammate of the Spaniard.
"Santi Cazorla is a spectacular player," Sanchez told Arsenal's official website.
"Although I knew about his quality, playing alongside him makes me very happy.
"You never know whether he will kick the ball with his right or left foot. Also, he moves with short but quick strides, which is a remarkable trademark too."
Cazorla has scored eight goals in 46 appearances for Arsenal this season.
