Recent "health issues" have decimated our options at the back. Our most experienced out-and-out central defender in California is 21.
When asked what he had been doing today on the club’s SnapChat, Coquelin replied: “Me? I’ve been playing centre-back. I’ve been bossing it."
Strange choice by Wenger, considering he's used players like Monreal and Bielik at CB before. He could even use Debuchy in a pinch.
Plus, it's not exactly a vote of confidence for Chambers and Holding, who need all the minutes they can get.

It waa only for training. Ospina played there too after Coquelin. He won't be playing there for the first team unless we're really desperate

11 a side practice match. You have 3 CBs. Monreal and Debuchy are playing full back. You have shed loads of CMs. Thus you chuck a CM into partner the CB without a partner.

This is what preparation games are for. Why making a fuss of it?

And Ospina played out field so does that mean Wenger is planning to play him there or doesn't trust the other outfield players?
Nothing to see here, let's move on.

Coquelin has all the quality necessary to be a great CB. He is disciplined, composed, enjoys defensive side of the game, great tackler and interceptions.
The only thing that bothers me is how good is he in the air?
