VIDEO: This is how Arsenal’s Francis Coquelin stays focused on matchdays

Ever wondered what it’s like to be a professional footballer on match days?

It’s a tricky thing, to be honest. You merely hours away from an important game that could either turn you into a hero or make you public enemy number one. There’s so much at stake and as much as you’re looking forward to the start of the game, the butterflies continue to be a nuisance.

Players have different ways of dealing with matchdays – some believe in supersitions, while others don’t. Some players prefer pasta, while others have other dietary requirements. Some listen to Hip Hop music, while others prefer punk rock. The differences are endless.

But in the video below, Arsenal’s Francis Coquelin gives you an insight as to how he deals with everything that comes along on a specific matchday!
