Laurent Koscielny Is The Proud Owner Of A Very Impressive Record

Not only has Laurent Koscielny formed a near impenetrable partnership with Shkodran Mustafi at Arsenal this season, but the Frenchman is the proud owner of one of this season's most impressive Premier League records.

As well as only conceding three goals in his last nine games, Koscielny has managed to only commit two fouls in the Premier League, so far this campaign. Better yet for Arsenal fans, both those fouls were committed on Diego Costa.

The Spanish striker who is so loathed at the Emirates stadium, got absolutely no joy out of the Gunners' centre half during Arsenal's 3-0 victory over Chelsea, earlier this season. Arsenal fans will be hoping every other striker who comes up against the 31-year-old Frenchman will fair equally as poorly, this season as the North London club aim to end a 13 year wait for the Premier League title.
