Laurent Koscielny Archives: 11/2016

In Soccer AM’s Teammates 2.0 segment, Alex Iwobi revealed which Arsenal player he thinks has the best footballing brain.

Arsenal fans were overjoyed on Monday when Hector Bellerin himself announced that he had signed a new deal with the club.

Mesut Ozil has been left out of yet another shortlist, this time Uefa’s 40-man shortlist for 2016 team of the year.

It looks as if Laurent Koscielny could be about to sign a new contract with Arsenal.

Now for some completely unexpected but very welcome gossip.

With the international break in full swing, we take a look at the first-team players (including those out on-loan) who were called up to their respective countries in recent days.

Tottenham goalkeeper, Hugo Lloris, has apparently dubbed Laurent Koscielny as one of the best defenders in the world.

Laurent Koscielny is apparently a big fan of the board game Scrabble… why am I not surprised?

Laurent Koscielny says he sees no reason to leave Arsenal for as long as the club are happy with him, but he did not rule out a move away should that change.

We’re now into the third international break of a season that isn’t even three months old, so who will be going where and for what?

Yes, yes, I know, I’m only whinging about the referee because we didn’t win.

Since the final whistle (and during the game) there has been much whinging about Arsenal’s goal, which was scored by Tottenham’s Kevin Wimmer, with claims it was offside.
