A glimpse into the future. With Gabriel Paulista’s one match ban coming to an end and the short time between matches, you can bet he will be back. The Brazilian is going to be fired up and ready to go. However, it will be interesting to see if he can regain his composure. The fracas with Diego Costa probably did not shake him too much given his fearless nature but we don’t see what goes on behind closed doors.

Meanwhile, Calum Chambers is hoping to go a match without an own goal. The unfortunate 20-year old has had a tough time keeping the ball out of his own net. Neither one was blatantly his fault. One was unfortunate placement. The other was what we will call twitchy reflexes. Or a failed clearance.

All that being said, Chambers is still a quality defender that figures to be the future center back alongside Gabriel Paulista. With this projected pairing, Arsenal fans will have the privilege of looking into the base of our defense for years to come.
