Seeing Francis Coquelin back on the pitch is going to make so many people smile. He was bizarrely left out against Dinamo Zagreb and Arsenal paid the price. Coquelin essentially became Arsenal’s most valuable player without even starting. His absence was absolutely painful to see.

You can bet that seeing his team perform the way they did wound up Coquelin. He is going to look like a wrecking ball in the middle of the pitch. Hopefully he can maintain his composure. He has shown major improvements in that department though.

Santi Cazorla will look to ignore everything that happened on the weekdays and just move on with the Premier League, where he has had great success thus far. He and Mesut Ozil are leading the known world in chances created. Against a Chelsea defense that has looked breakable at times, that should continue.
