Thomas Vermaelen has made a strong first impression on Bacary Sagna.
The Belgian centre back moved from Ajax to Emirates Stadium last month and is working hard at the Club's pre-season training camp in Austria as he prepares for his first campaign in English football.
Vermaelen has started both of Arsenal's pre-season friendlies to date – at Barnet and SC Columbia - and Sagna likes what he has seen so far.
"He is very good," Sagna told Arsenal.com.
"He has a good left foot, he is a good passer and I am happy to see him in the team."
Arsenal TV Online is the ONLY place to watch live coverage of Arsenal's game against Szombathelyi Haladás. Plus you can watch highlights and reaction from our first two friendlies this summer. Coming up we have exclusive live coverage of the away games with Hannover 96 and Valencia.
