Much has been written about the sudden meteoric rise of Francis Coquelin, from being on lone to Championship side Charlton Athletic to becoming one of the key members of Arsenal’s first team in a matter of months. Some have hailed him as the top class no-nonsense defensive midfielder Arsenal have needed for years, welcoming his […]
Stoke have become one of those teams that Arsenal fans look out for when the fixture list is released at the beginning of the season, largely due to the rivalry that has developed between the two sides as a result of a clash of footballing cultures and the injury to Aaron Ramsey in 2010.

He has had a long and successful career, has made himself a key […]
It is difficult to predict what will come next for Nacho Monreal.
