thought he played really well yesterday. Obvs took a lot of stick recently but had Lukaku in his pocket. Good aggressive defending without going in two-footed like an unhinged pyscho!

I was concerned with him starting yesterday but to be fair after the first 10 mins he settled in and did well.
Still not a fan of him starting with Koscienly.

He starts the game nervously then once be calms down he's decent. Needs to eradicate those dodgy clearances that go over the bar and needs better judgement when facing long balls. He's got potential to be pretty good

He was untroubled because our defensive midfield worked harder and put the pressure away from our defense. That's why.

not enough of an expert to really comment on that and know what I'm talking about but credit where it's due tho - he caught the eye a couple of times yesterday

Yeah he looks good. A few rash moments when he returns to the lineup but very good signs.

I actually though he was great as was Coq who is back to his best. Coq had 12 interceotions and 15 ball recoveries.
I think the bottom line is Wenger wants us to win the ball early and move it up the field faster.Having both Gabriel and Kos is risk but I think eventually Kos could learn to drop back a bit while Gabriel pushes forward.
If you have Coq in front of them who likes to win the ball early then with a bit of luck we will be able to waste teams in the first half like we used to in the good old days.
Elneny is a very smart player and for what we spent on him a good signing.We still need cover for Coq although Elneny may be able to play the DM role aswell.
If we get a striker, a winger and a CM we wil be ok. I want chambers to go on loan so maybe another CB aswell.

We have to get Kante this summer. Guy is a machine

There is no chance of us signing Kante

Gabriel needs to consistently play well, Merts position is all for the taking so there can be no excuses. No good having a good game here and there!
