Arsenal defender Ezri Konsa was full of praise for centre-back Gabriel Magalhaes after the 2-0 Premier League win over Everton at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
The Gunners returned to winning ways with a comfortable victory over the Toffees. The visitors were virtually non-existent as an attacking force, barring a couple of occasions.
Arsenal dominated proceedings and could have easily scored more than two goals with the chances created. Konsa scored his maiden goal from a set-piece to break the deadlock early on.
Gabriel made it 2-0 in the 68th minute to put the game beyond Everton's sights. After the win, Konsa praised Gabriel as a top player after he scored in his 200th Premier League appearance.
He said: "Very pleased for him. He's a top, top player. Top human being. Very happy for him. He's my life easy since I've joined the club and it's been a pleasure playing alongside him."
With the victory, Arsenal are just goal difference behind league leaders Manchester City, who suffered a 2-1 loss to Aston Villa on the road.
The Gunners have a huge game against Liverpool next weekend but prior to that, they have a Carabao Cup fourth round tie at Fleetwood Town.
