Arsenal defender Thomas Vermaelen has expressed his delight at learning that defensive partner Laurent Koscielny had signed a long-term contract at the club.
Since the Belgium international's return from injury in October, the pair have formed an impressive partnership at the heart of the Gunners' defence.
Speaking ahead of Arsenal's pre-season friendly versus Premier League champions Manchester City on Friday in Beijing, Vermaelen spoke positively of the club's decision to move swiftly in securing the former Lorient man's services for the foreseeable future.
"I heard the news that Laurent extended his contract and I'm really happy," Vermaelen told a press conference in the Chinese capital on Wednesday.
"From the start when he came to Arsenal he has shown he is a great player and he is developing really well. I think he has done everything for the club already and I hope he will stay a few more years.
"Of course he is not here at the moment because he is not fit - he had a holiday because he played in the Euros. But he is a great player and I'm happy that he signed for the club."
Vermaelen featured in the north London side's 2-1 friendly win over Malaysia XI on Tuesday, with Thomas Eisfeld and Chuks Aneke grabbing late strikes to secure victory.
:lol:
Someone should tell Verm that being pretty good for the last 2 months of last season isnt being great from the start

It's funny cos it's true
Homos back :bow:
Eh? Crude and repetitive homophobia isn't the way to get a rise out of me. People who challenge me with coherency but incorrect views get a rise out of me. Otherwise, you're just embarrassing yourself with unoriginality and low-IQ playground taunts.
Should I report myself for challenging you or do you want to do it again?
