Vieira: Denílson can be Gunners' best

Former Arsenal captain Patrick Vieira believes Denílson can become one of the best players at the Emirates Stadium.

The 20-year-old midfielder signed for the Gunners from São Paulo in 2006 and has emerged as Arsène Wenger’s first-choice midfield partner for captain Cesc Fàbregas following the departure of Gilberto Silva and Mathieu Flamini.

Vieira, who played for Arsenal for nine years, feels the youngster can fill Flamini's boots and go on to be a star in North London.

"He's a wonderful player," Vieira said. "It's not going to be easy for him because Flamini was a good player.

"We need to give him more time to develop as a player but he can be one of the best players at the club. The more he plays the better he will be.

"He is young and has so many qualities and he's only in his first years of playing in the Premier League.

"He and Fabregas can play together, all the good players can play together."
