Arsenal fans can’t understate how highly they rate Sokratis

Considering just how incredible Lucas Torreira has been for the Gunners as of late, it has gone very under the radar that Sokratis Papastathopoulos hasn’t put a foot wrong in weeks. the Greek defender has been exactly what the Gunners needed and the fans have started to appreciate him on Twitter in the last few days.

The Greek colossus has helped his side to record wins over Tottenham and Huddersfield and get a big points away at Old Trafford, and the fans don’t want to understate the ex-Borussia Dortmund mans importance to their siccess at the moment. Unai Emery brought him in as a short-term fix their defensive issues, and alongside Shkodran Mustafi the 30-year-old has shone in Laurent Koscielny’s absence.

The supporters simply cannot wait until they have Koscielny back in the side at full fitness as they’ll be treated to a centre-back pairing of Sokratis and their club captain. That is a recipe for success as far as the Gunners are concerned and they’ll all be hoping that the two can help extend the club’s unbeaten run. One of the greatest parts of their Greek stopper’s game is the mentality he brings, and as the Gunners become more and more of a force on the field, it seems apparent that his mentality is rubbing off on his teammates.
