As Quartz said, it's rather obvious this is part of the deal for Koscielny (the most copied and pasted name in the history of football).

From what little I've seen of him, He's a Palacios kind of player. Small, quick, and annoying to the opposition. I'll be honest, the only time I've seen him this season was in the Stoke away (FA) match, and I think he played in RB rather than his natural position, DM.

Wenger seem to like him.

DanielD has it right.
A medium sized, but competitive, ballwinning midielder. He can also play at right back.
Good tackler, runs a lot, but needs to work on his passing.

Coquelin

looked good I thought anyway, obviously not the solution at this moment in time but did well. Game fell apart when Wenger stupidly subbed him and left Arshavin on.

Thought he done well. Was surprised that Wenger took him off.

I thought he did well also, how better would he be though if he came into a team with experienced and leadership so he could learn more, the whole situation at our club from the setting a year contract sealing for over 30's and the intregration of young players, (ahead of their time) is flawed and is all down to Wenger's stubborn vision...

In expierenced at times but showed good quality.

Did ok in a game he should never have been playing in and only did because one of our senior players got caught out for being reckless at Newcastle.

Stunned he got taken off, our one defensive midfielder against a rampant attacking force.
