ARSENAL, Torreira: "I'm proud fans are comparing me to Vieira. But I'd need to get taller!"
Interviewed by Sky Sports News, Uruguayan international deep-lying midfielder Lucas Torreira, becoming more and more of a powerhouse at Arsenal, which he just joined last summer, from Sampdoria, stated, also joking a bit: "If the fans are comparing me and my game to Patrick Vieira, that's amazing. It makes me very proud, but I need to grow a bit before I can be as tall as him! Jokes aside, he's an amazing player, I remember getting up in the mornings in Uruguay to watch him. I feel very happy, and am looking to help the team. I'm trying to improve as a player, and do what's best for the team. Right now we're doing very well, so it's just about doing that".
