Both have the intelligence to play a more withdrawn role if they need to - just look at how Hummels won Germany the game against Holland in the world cup. Subotic and Per would be a terrible pairing though, because none of them can just decide to be quicker and more mobile.

Holland? I think you are thinking of France actually.
Hmm, I might be.
Koscienly is going to need replacing in a couple of seasons also.
His last ditch tackling etc. will be IMO influenced by his eventual decline in speed
Gabriel looks a similar type to Koscielny.
Wenger lives for signing with 12 months left on his contract. Ze power is in my hands now.
Subotic should be avoided. Can't say I watch a lot of Dortmund but if last night's performance against Juve is anything to go by, he can't play a high line and he might just be even slower than Mert.
