Wenger lauded Arsenal's newest recruit as a promising signing. Speaking to arsenal.com the manager said: "I believe that when you go down, there's mental selection.

"Are you ready enough to fight [to show] that you are above this level and that you absolutely want to come back? Players like Giroud and Koscielny have had that test. They are similar to that. Once they get up, they really mean it.

"Bramall is a young, promising left back who has a lack of experience at the top level but who has fantastic ingredients.

"He has tremendous pace, a good left foot, a great desire to do well. Overall, he's a very exciting prospect."

Arsenal are currently at the fifth position in the league table. They have 41 points from 20 matches.
