EPL: Mikael Silvestre names player to replace Gabriel in Arsenal’s XI

 


Former Arsenal defender, Mikael Silvestre has named the very player to displace Gabriel Magalhães in Arsenal’s starting lineup.

According to him, January signing, Jakub Kiwior will keep Gabriel on the bench and take his regular place in Mikel Arteta’s starting XI after impressive recent performances.

Kiwor joined Arsenal from Spezia in January and was drafted in at centre-back, playing alongside Gabriel following injuries to William Saliba and Takehiro Tomiyasu.

He performed credibly well against Chelsea and Newcastle. Silvestre, who had two seasons at Arsenal from 2008-10, is impressed with the performance of the defender.

“I think Jakub Kiwior has ability,” Silvestre told bettingexpert.com.

“Kiwior deserves credit…Well done Kiwior.

“If there was one player who should be challenging for a starting spot, it’s Gabriel Magalhães,” he added.
