I'm guessing his career track is similar to Koscielny, who was fairly unproven when we bought him. I still have to see what type of defender he is...I don't think he'll replace Per, as a backline with both Kos and Gab (who apparently has a reputation for bravery, whatever that means), might be too dangerous.

Long term, a pairing of Chambers and Gab will hopefully solve our CB problems. The more I see of Chambers, the more I like him on the ball, but the less I like him in any other position other than CB. He is really really slow.

Also the only downside of Coq is his passing, but other than that he's exactly the type of player we've needed. And the downside is that his short passing is just slightly off, but he has the desire to play the hollywood ball, which is both good and bad. It's good if he can pull it off consistently, and bad if he is wasteful with it, a la Song before that one year he learned how to play a final ball.

He's not as slow as he looks. Long strides. But he's not quick off the mark.

That said, his future is definitely in the center. I think he can be elite there. And I'm very high on Bellerin.
