at the club, for an undisclosed duration, with manager Arsene
Wenger labelling the starlet underrated.
Denilson signed for the North London club on deadline day 2006, and
has since been making a name for himself, particularly in last
seasons Carling Cup run.

plan at The Emirates, which his highlighted by the new deal.
He has been described by his manager as a little bit in between
Tomas Rosicky and Gilberto for his flamboyant but assured
style.

talent.
I am pleased, very pleased, he said. Denilson is a great player.
For me, he is underrated. He does not get all the praise his
performances suggest but that will come very quickly.
He is the youngest player of our squad along with Armand Traore.
He has played big games but he has shown he can cope with the
pressure and produce quality performances. I expect him to make a
big impact.
Cool,but i think he's more like
fabregas number two
