Francis Coquelin is still a rookie who is finding his way in the Arsenal first-team.
Yet these interesting statistics, via the good people at Squawka, show exactly why Arsene Wenger has put so much faith in him.
Coquelin is actually much better than Chelsea midfield mountain Nemanja Matic, according to this data.
As the table shows, the Frenchman has won more tackles and aerial duels than Matic, who has also made fewer interceptions, clearances and blocks.
Coquelin, who has played almost 1,500 minutes less then the Serbian this campaign, is also outperforming his rival when it comes to defending.
