Arsenal star reveals what the players think of Laurent Koscielny going on strike

Laurent Koscielny can still bear no malice with Arsenal, according to Nacho Monreal. Koscielny has gone on strike, refusing to go on their pre-season tour of the United States following a bitter fall-out over a new contract. Monreal is the first player to talk publicly about the row. Fellow defender Monreal said: “We respect Laurent a lot because he has played for Arsenal for a long time. He’s our captain. What I would like is they fix the problem, and I think they will do it. Why not? For the moment, it’s something between him and the club. We respect him and the club.” (via The Mirror)
