Room for Schneiderlin and Coquelin at Arsenal, says McLintock

Arsenal could accommodate both Morgan Schneiderlin and Francis Coquelin in its squad according to Frank McLintock.

Morgan Schneiderlin would be a "terrific addition" to Arsenal's squad, but only if it does not hinder the rapid progress of Francis Coquelin, says club great Frank McLintock.

Arsenal has enjoyed a fine recent run, winning eight straight Premier League matches to close the gap on leader Chelsea to seven points.

Part of the reason for the club's form has been Arsene Wenger's decision to draft Coquelin in from the wilderness, with the Frenchman putting in a series of impressive performances in the heart of Arsenal's midfield.
