on why Koscielny came off…
He was tired, he had cramps in both legs and that’s why I decided to take him off.

Shame he'll never be a remembered as one of the greats due to the lack of silverware at the end of his career, he'll regret not joining Barcelona or Bayern when pep shown interest with both sides could have won everything with 1 or two seasons and both clubs.

On the other hand I'm grateful for the loyalty he's show towards the club could have left us a few years ago or run down his contract RVP style at this pointed and join a top club for some cups, with the little time he has left in his career.

Alongside Sagna, Rosicky, Alexis, and Ozil, he's a true Icon at Arsenal. I included Sagna because we can't ignore that he's the most consistently great player we've had in the Emirates era.

Sagna comfortably an Arsenal legend, dude gave his all for his whole time here and left on a high, no grudges against him. Kos will become a club icon as well assuming he sees out this deal, respect for them both.

RVP could've been one of the top on that list as he was pure qualitee as well but he got his PL trophy instead.

It's ironic that we've beat Burnley both times due to controversial decisions going Koscielnys way.

Beaten way too easily, best defender in the PL? More like most horrific member of our back four, bar Bellerin

f***ing embarrassing for the hazard goal but sure he won't get criticised anywhere near as much as others. MAKE THE TACKLE

He seems to be making a lot more mistakes, don't get me wrong I think he is brilliant but he has the occasional blank spot. creeping into his game lately.
