UNAI EMERY has revealed the four Arsenal players whose progress have impressed him the most this season.
Emery, 47, could lift a piece of silverware in his debut season in charge of the north London outfit as they are in the semi-finals of the Europa League.
After getting off to a rocky start, the Spanish tactician has steadied the ship and his side could also get into the Champions League with a top four finish.
The Gunners will be looking to get back on course away to Leicester on Sunday after back-to-back defeats against Crystal Palace and Wolves.
And Emery has explained which of his stars have excited him the most this season.
He said: "I take a lot of satisfaction from players progressing individually and the improvement of their statistics.
"I think there are a lot of players who have made progress this season. There's Matteo Guendouzi. There's Lucas Torreira.
"There's also the statistics of the goalscorers together - Laca (Alexandre Lacazette) as much as Auba (Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang). They are both scoring an important number of goals."
With Aaron Ramsey set to join Juventus at the end of the season, he is confident he can fill the void.
He added: "Yes, but there are also players coming through from the academy who are producing good performances and who could progress.
"We could replace him with a player from outside, or with a player who is already here who can grow like he did himself."
