Coquelin signed a new long-term deal with Arsenal this week, and has potentially saved the club millions in transfer fees in the process. Arsenal have long needed a defensive midfielder and Coquelin looks to have solved the problem position. For the 23-year old to have more interceptions than Matic, widely regarded as the best player in that position in the league, is pretty impressive.
The French midfielder has five interceptions so far in the game between Arsenal and Spurs.
