Tomas enjoyed a promising first season at Emirates Stadium. He wasn't a regular on the scoresheet but his goals were certainly worth waiting for - a stunning long-range effort against Hamburg in the Champions League and two classics in the FA Cup win at Liverpool.
The Czech star also netted in three of Arsenal's last five home games last season, suggesting that he is capable of contributing more goals now he has found his feet in the Premiership.
Quick and skilful with a powerful shot and an eye for a pass, Tomas has been mainly deployed on the left of midfield but is just as happy in a central position, a role he fills for his country.
Tomas made his international debut aged just 17 and represented his country at the 2000 and 2004 European Championships, plus the 2006 World Cup. He scored two superb goals in the group stages in Germany but the Czech Republic failed to advance to the knockout stages.
Tomas has a wealth of top-level experience from his time with Sparta Prague and Borussia Dortmund, winning domestic titles with both clubs. Now he hopes to add a Premiership medal to his impressive haul.
