Podolski signing confirmed!

Arsenal have today ended months of speculation by confirming the signing of Lukas Podolski.

Speaking to the offical Arsenal website: Manager Arsène Wenger said: “We are delighted to secure the deal for Lukas and see him as an important part of our future. He is a top-class player, a very good finisher and a proven performer at club and international level. He is a very strong player and will provide us with good attacking options."We are happy to have made this signing early and we are looking forward to watching Lukas contribute at the European Championships over the summer, a level where he has already made 95 caps at the age of 26. That is a phenomenal record and just shows his quality as a player.”


 
Speaking about his move, Podolski said: “I’m so happy to be joining Arsenal Football Club and to play in the Premier League. Arsenal is one of the top clubs in Europe with a huge history. There are many top quality players at Arsenal and the style of football which the team plays is fantastic. I’m proud to become an Arsenal player and am looking forward to playing my first match at Emirates Stadium and doing my best for all the Arsenal fans.“I am looking forward to becoming an Arsenal player, but at the moment, my focus is with my current club Cologne. I will give everything I have until the end of season to make sure the team finish as high as possible in the Bundesliga. There will always be a place in my heart for FC Köln.”

    Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are
    you using for this site? I'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had issues with hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

    First off I would like to say awesome blog! I had a quick question which I'd like to ask if you don't
    mind. I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your
    mind before writing. I have had a tough time
    clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out.

    I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes
    are usually lost just trying to figure out
    how to begin. Any ideas or hints? Thanks!
