New Arsenal signing Cohen Bramall faced up to the "big challenge" ahead of him having made his first appearance for the club on Monday. Signed from non-league Hednesford Town just last week, the 20-year-old played 83 minutes at left back in Arsenal U23's 3-1 victory over Southampton in Premier League 2. Speaking to the club's official website following the game, the debutant was quick to recognise the difference in quality. "It was so fast... it was hard to get used to," he said "I just need to do well now, keep training and keep getting better and better. Hopefully, I can get to where I need to be in the future." "It'll be a big challenge, because from Hednesford in the league I played in, it was pretty slow and I had a lot more time on the ball than I did here. It was fast and I need to be better and think quicker on the ball." "I think in the next game that I play, I'll be a lot more confident. I can trust my team-mates more and just hopefully get to know the players a lot better. "It was amazing. I'm just happy that in my first game for Arsenal that we got the three points really." Bramall was given a contract at Arsenal having impressed during a short trial with the club before Christmas. Prior to this, he had been working in a car factory.
