5 crucial Arsenal matches Coquelin is set to miss

Olympiakos (A), 9th December

Arsenal vs Olympiakos

The first crucial game Arsenal will face without Francis Coquelin is against Olympiakos in the last group match of the Champions League, where the Gunners need a victory by two-goals or more to seal their spot in the knock-out stages of the competition.

Olympiakos caused immense problems when they defeated Arsenal at the Emirates earlier this season and with Arsenal needing goals, the defence could be left exposed by the absence of our defensive-midfielder.

However, if Arsenal fail to win against Dinamo Zagreb tomorrow or Olympiakos avoid defeat against Bayern Munich, then this game will lose it’s importance.

    Wenger’s derelection of his duty in Summer when he failed to strengthen the team, has now come home to roost. For reasons known only to himself, he thought he could go through the whole season with just one holding midfielder. Now we have none. Shamee on you Wenger.
