3 reasons why Gabriel is so much better than Mustafi, Sokratis and to some extent Luiz. He's calm even when the pressures on, calm when the pressures on and calm when the pressures on.

So much so that it rubbed off on Holding. A bit like Kos was so much better with Per.

Spot on - no panic. Compare that to someone like Mustafi or even Belerin (think when he took Pogba down when he was stumbling going away from goal).

Just a belief that he can win the ball without having to foul. Similar to how some players to to ground the moment they are touched or pressed because they are **** scared of losing the ball.

Raul was sacked weeks before this got done. Gabriel was all Edu and Arteta.

Raul is the one responsible for Mari and Cedric.
The deal was done by Raul, it was reported that all the contract terms and fee with the club was agreed prior to his sacking. It also helps that Raul is extremely close with the president of Lille.

For a while after Raul was sacked it looked like he was going to Utd (going by rumours). Chats with Edu and Arteta convinced him to come to Arsenal.

Not saying Arteta and Edu didn't play a role in him coming to Arsenal, my post referred to the incredible fee that we secured the player which was negotiated by Raul.

That was the fee the Lille people set. They also accepted the Utd offer and a Napoli offer for the same amount.

You know it's a real trip that with Gabriel and Partey we've solved the two positions that have plagued us for like 15 years just when all the other positions have collapsed into dust. Imagine if we had these guys even 5 years ago when we had Özil, Santi, Ramsey, Wilshere etc, man, we could have really been something.

Few hard drives need checking if people think that’s a penalty.

Same with the Greenwood challenge, if that’s a second yellow then you’d see multiple red cards every match.
