Confirmation bias. He completed 86 percent of his passes and was dispossessed once.

He tries shite, and when it doesn't come off it looks bad, as opposed to playing a sideways pass. When it comes off, it kills opponents.

We don't score the opener without his run and cross into Giroud, who should have finished initially. We don't score the second without his touch into Iwobi's feet.

He won three tackles and had two interceptions, the most defensive contributions from anyone in the midfield, and covered the most ground of any Arsenal player in any match all season. He was really, really good against Swansea and adds a dynamism to our team that's missing when Coquelin's in that position. And I love me some Coq.
