Not exact matches
Our stand - in skipper
Koscielny has now moved
to reveal that he still holds serious hope of
returning to the top of the division, claiming this win will help his
side to turn things around after a string of bad results.
In fact their
return to the
side was almost a month ago and we have seen both
Koscielny and Ozil play full 90 minutes.
I have my doubts personally, so would Arsenal
return to a back four if
Koscielny can't play, with Holding on the left and Gabriel on the right
side of a central pairing?
With the Liverpool match not too far away, I'd be very surprised if Giroud and
Koscielny are fit enough
to start, whilst there is hope that Ozil may make the starting eleven given that he has
returned early from his holiday break
to meet up with the Arsenal
side in LA.
Koscielny's
return to the Arsenal
side just goes
to show how much stronger he makes that back line.
Laurent
Koscielny (Achilles) remains absent as does Lucas Perez (thigh), while Francis Coquelin will
return to the
side after missing the fixture against West Ham in midweek due
to unspecified personal reasons.
On the positive
side, I expect Chamakh
to be our top scorer,
Koscielny to be another «Vermaelen», Ramsey
to return and become a great player and Cesc
to give us one more quality season.
Luckily for Arsene Wenger's
side, both Laurent
Koscielny and Mesut Ozil have
returned to full training and look set
to play despite fitness concerns over the last two weeks.
Closed down by one of the Brighton forwards, the
return ball
to the other centre - back closed off by the other forward and the easy balls into midfield and
to their
side's full - back cut out by the Brighton winger and midfielder, the centre - back had few options
to pass out from the back — Laurent
Koscielny in particular was struggling, giving the ball away several times on the edge of his area, with one instance leading
to the second goal.
