Arsenal fans have taken to Twitter to drool over Dani Ceballos' performance against Newcastle.

The 9-cap Spain international was making his first Premier League start since a 1-1 draw against Wolves at the start of November, having only previously made seven starts in England's top-flight since his summer move on loan from Real Madrid.

Despite his lack of action, Ceballos dazzled against Steve Bruce's side as Arsenal recorded a 2-0 win.

The 23-year-old made three key passes - only Mesut Ozil and Nicolas Pepe recorded more out of every player on the pitch - while he also embarked on one dribble and was fouled twice.

The former Real Betis man also registered one tackle and one interception, while completing a whopping 91 passes with a pass success rate of 95.6% to his name - he made more passes than all but one player on the pitch, with Granit Xhaka's total of 105 the next closest although Ceballos was withdrawn in the 82nd minute.

Mikel Arteta's side now sit tenth in the Premier League with 34 points to their name, and are six points off fifth-placed Tottenham with Europe certainly a realistic aim for this season.

Let's see what the Arsenal fans on Twitter have been saying about Ceballos...

To kick off the reaction, 'GoonerMartin' said that the Spaniard was "bringing Santi vibes to the Emirates" in reference to Santi Cazorla - the Villarreal midfielder made 180 appearances for the Gunners, and was a big fan favourite.

Then, 'AFCBeef' said that the on-loan Real Madrid playmaker was "pretty immense" against the Magpies.

Elsewhere, Mo said that Ceballos "is the goods" and that Unai Emery "ruined him" - this fan also added that he seemed to be helping Mesut Ozil as well.

Dan then mentioned that the Arsenal No.8 was "excellent" on Sunday and that his good display is "hopefully a sign of things to come".

Lastly, 'Arsenal Mark' said "well played Dani" before adding that he was impressed  with him, but didn't seem too impressed with the midfielder's top-knot hairstyle!

Then, @MGJ1886 said that it was a "very good performance" from the Spaniard, and also mentioned that he "really allowed Ozil to play" as well - it's safe to say that these six supporters were delighted with Ceballos' display.
