Arsenal teenager Alex Iwobi has hailed team-mates Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez, saying that training with the "world class" pair has made him a "better player".
Iwobi made his Gunners' debut in October, and scored his first goal for the team on Saturday in the 2-0 win over Everton at Goodison Park.
The 19-year-old had also started against Barcelona at the Nou Camp last week, putting in an impressive performance against the Spanish giants.
"With going out on loan, it's men's football so you have to win all the time [and develop] that 'anything to win' kind of mentality, so you learn things quicker on loan," Iwobi told the Arsenal Weekly podcast.
"But when you're playing with world-class players and training with them every day you become a better footballer in my opinion.
"You learn a lot more training with the likes of [Mesut] Ozil and [Alexis] Sanchez."
