Arsenal midfielder Lucas Torreira has won Gunners fans over with his performances since his £22m summer arrival from Sampdoria.
His antics off the pitch have also won him many admirers, though, with the Uruguayan showing off a great sense of humour.
Torreira’s latest effort at comedy is quite a strange one. Leaving Arsenal’s training pitch through a gate, he attempts to climb over an imaginary wall:
Wait for it…

Fans on Twitter were loving the joke:
More like Torreira climbing over Tottenham's trophy cabinet.

Just @LTorreira34 going about his normal business of tackling even the air, nothing amiss.

While some supporters were not quite sure what was funny about it:
Not sure it was worth the wait tbh

Torreira is expected to start tomorrow’s North London derby against Tottenham. He scored his first goal for the club in the 4-2 win back in December.
His strike certainly helped him build a strong following among Gunners fans, and he could enhance his reputation even further if he comes up with another goal at Wembley.
Arsenal could close the gap to just one point to their fierce rivals if they get the three points tomorrow.
