If Every Arsenal Player Was A Thanksgiving Dinner Item
By Josh Sippie
Wine – Laurent Koscielny
Everyone drinks at Thanksgiving. It helps ease the pain that you put yourself through. Even when Arsenal is in the midst of a drought or in the middle of a wreck of injuries, Laurent Koscielny stands tall and says ‘drink me, I will help you forget everything.’ As Arsenal fans, we often oblige.
Basically, wine is always there. And it is always going to make things better. That is what Laurent Koscielny does for Arsenal. He defends with such gusto that he can, even if just for a moment, make us forget that the attack is stumbling. Not only that, but you can’t have a meal without a beverage. Just like turkey needs to be washed down with wine, Arsenal’s formation needs to be supported by Laurent Koscielny.

The Frenchman is one of the best center backs in the world of football and without him, we would all choke on stuff and try to turn gravy into a beverage. And that is rather disgusting.
Also, like the cranberries, you really can’t mess the wine up. What are you going to do, pour it wrong? Good luck. And what makes wine better? Age. Our French center back has pointed out that he feels like he is getting better with age. How’s that for easy analogies?
What do you think, Gooners? Did we forget any staples to Arsenal’s Thanksgiving plate? If so, set us straight, leave a comment.
