Koscielny ready to face Arsenal pals Walcott, Oxlade-Chamberlain in Euros

Arsenal's France defender Laurent Koscielny is wary facing his clubmates against England in the Euros.

Koscielny could find himself up against two of his Arsenal team-mates in the England squad in the shape of Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

He told the Mirror: "It will be strange to play against Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. But Arsenal is one thing, France another.

"We've had a lot of jokes about playing against each other from being on the pitch together and in training at Arsenal.

"But while we laughed and joked, when the game comes it will be very serious and we must win the game. We all know that."
