    Fixed it for you.

    We win as a team, we loose as a team, we defend as a team, we attack as a team. its not just the defenders at fault for us conceeding. everyone in the team has to take responsibility for that even RVP.

    Okay but when you look at the fact that he's been involved in 42 of our 71 goals (close to 60%) you realise that without him we really would be a shit position. None of our other strikers could have scored most of the goals because they require not just technique but intelligent movement, which neither Chamakh nor Park possess.

    Yes RVP has been a major help to us winning the league but if you swapped him with Auguero, would he too not have scored these goals, or a Benzema or Higuain.

    So like Ollie said you have to give the team credit to for creating these goals its noto as it RVP scored them out of thin Air.

    he deserves a new, bigger contract.

    Whatever Vermaelen is getting paid, Kos deserves more.


    One of the best CBs in the premiership

    Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny believes that he has finally got used to Premier League football thanks to extra work and dedication in the gym this year.

    The France international struggled during his first season at the Emirates Stadium and was in and out of the team, but feels more settled after an impressive second year.

    Speaking to Arsenal Player, the former Lorient man said of his improvement: "I was in the gym more, that is the first reason.

    "I feel better than last year. I know the league, my team and the club. I think I am better on and off the pitch so for a player, when you feel good with your team-mates, the club and his family, it is better.

    "I feel very good to help my team and to qualify for the Champions League. I just wanted that for the end of this season.

    "I know this league more than last year. In all my body I am better, not just physically, psychologically as well.

    "It's great for me, I work hard in training to be strong and the results have been in my game. I try to be strong and be the best defender I can in my team."

    The defender also spoke about his favourite moments in an Arsenal shirt, but one match stands out the most for the 26-year-old.

    "I have a lot of best moments but maybe against Tottenham [on February 26 was the best] because we were losing 2-0 after 25 minutes and came back to win," he opined.

    "It was the derby so the atmosphere was amazing. The fans were amazing and it was a very good game for every player and everybody who watched this game."

    Laurent Koscielny is in talks with Arsenal over committing his long-term future to the club, according to L'Equipe.

    The France international still has two years left on his current contract with the Gunners but manager Arsene Wenger is said to be keen to tie the defender down to a new deal amidst interest from a number of top sides around Europe, including Inter.

    The north London side are said to have offered Koscielny an extension that would bind him to the Emirates until June 2017.

    The 26-year-old centre-back, who has been capped four times by les Bleus, joined the side from Lorient in 2010.

    Koscielny made just one appearance at Euro 2012 but drew plenty of praise from the French press for his performance in the 2-0 quarter-final defeat to eventual champions Spain.
