Arsène Wenger believes that Denilson can follow in Mathieu Flamini’s footsteps.
The French midfielder took advantage of Gilberto's absence afterlast summer's Copa America to stake his claim in the Arsenal firstteam. Flamini ended up making 40 appearances as Cesc Fabregas' regular midfield partner.
This season an injury to Abou Diaby has given Denilsonhis chance in Arsenal's 'engine room' and he will rack up his 50th Clubappearance if he features at Bolton on Saturday. Wenger believes theBrazilian can make the most of his opportunity.
“Football is to be always ready when you get your chance,” Wengertold Arsenal.com. “To show that you have the quality. You can only dothat if you have exceptional concentration level, exceptional staminaand motivation.
“Denilsonhas different qualities to Flamini but if you look at the numbers atthe end of the season you will see he is a very good player. You lookat the assists he has had since the start of the season, the balls hewins, the interceptions he has and the distance he covers.
“He is maybe not a flashy player but he is an efficient player.”
