Favourite team signings - Arsenal Pt.1

Lukas Podolski

Born 1987, now 25 years old, but already with 16 years he was one of Kölns rising talents. He took the chances he got and scored goal after goal after goal. No surprise he eventually would get the privelgie to try his luck in the A-team.

Success. That is what could say all about is seasons in Köln, but after a long time of goalscoring it would get rougher. Few goals and a lack of prestige led to Bayern Munich, from 2006 til 2009, and yet again with Köln... 2 goals in the whole season.


After months of rumors he eventually signed up with Arsenal.


Thoughts..

Podolski has during a few years been very unseen for me, but in the WC 2010 I was very impressed by him. His style of playing is very direct nowadays, with his finish as his biggest weapon and he could also be used all over the attackline. Compared to many of the Arsenal players, his style of attacking is more direct and with his sense of scoring, he creates much chances.

Sure, he had a rough time the past year but he seems to be coming back and I believe this is a very good signing for Arsenal. We have the quality but with his effectiviness, we could challenge for atleast top 3 as last year.

A 5/5 signing
