Yeah Coq is starting to make a real claim for a regular spot in the starting XI, today he was immense, he was very good last week against Stoke too. It's still early days but his emergence is very similar to Flams in his first spell here.
We still need a new DM but Coq should be kept on as squad material, especially if he keeps on performing like this.
Edited to add: These are Coq's stats today...
Francis Coquelin vs MCFC: 100% tackle success, 88% aerial duels, 6 interceptions, 11 clearances, 87% passing
