Arsenal boss Wenger delighted with Coquelin performance for Burnley win

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was delighted with Francis Coquelin's performance in victory at Burnley.

The Frenchman was outstanding for the 1-0 win.

"First of all he's shown his individual quality winning the ball and passing it quickly, and he's very strong in the challenges. He also contributes to the balance of the team and that's very difficult to measure," said Wenger.

"You know that the balance of the team sometimes depends on one player who has some characteristics that the others don't. He looks like he has hugely contributed to that."
