4. Francis Coquelin

This has to be a player we can all agree on. Francis Coquelin is just not talented enough to remain on this Arsenal squad. Let me throw this at you: Through 94 appearances for Arsenal (BPL only), he has not scored a single goal. Not even one!

And he only boasts one assist in all seasons with Arsenal as well!

Here’s another stat: 29 shots, only three on target! If you want to be amazed by some amazing offensive abilities, click the link for more stats Francis Coquelin stats.

Now you may say, “Sanjesh, he’s a CDM. He’s not supposed to score.”

Well then how in the world does Nacho Monreal have more goals! Arsenal need CDM’s that can both defend and score on a consistent basis and Coquelin is definitely not that man because he isn’t versatile enough.

Take Pogba, Kante, and Matuidi for example. Three French CDM’s/CM’s that can both defend and pose an attacking threat.  A good potential replacement for Coquelin would be the Guinean CM Naby Keita from RB Leipzig. Boasting a ton of stamina, good passing, good shooting abilities and great defending skills, he is already a better option than Coquelin. #CoquelinOut
