Laurent Koscielny admits he has to adapt to Arsenal’s style of play – Premier League Update
Arsenal defender, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Laurent-Koscielny-c21742 has admitted that he has to adapt to Arsenal’s style of play, before he became comfortable with his life in North London.
The player went on to have a very inconsistent start to life at Arsenal, but has since then gone on to improve tremendously. The defender is one of the few players in the Gunners squad, who has been playing consistently well this season.
However, Koscielny has now admitted that things have not always been easy for him at the club, since he has often had to stay back and put in extra work during his training, in order to try and fine tune himself, to adapt to the Premier League.
Koscielny, when talking about his development at Arsenal is quoted to have said: “I think for a defender it is the best championship. I have had a bit of time now to be strong and get to know this league”
“Now I feel good on and off the pitch and I try to put the effort into being a good defender.
“You don't have to play differently here, you just have to work on the physical side. It's very different to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Spain-c3011 and the strikers are very strong. I've worked a lot to do that.”
The defender has in recent weeks been used as a right back and despite him being a natural centre back, he has done outstandingly well in his new position.
Despite this fact, the defender has admitted he is going to remain professionally about the temporary change in his position, but at the same time, he hopes for the full backs to return as soon as possible, so that he can get back to running the show as
a centre back for the team.
Koscielny ended by stating: "I try to do the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 seriously but I hope Bacary or Carl come back quickly.”
Following his move to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429, many believed that Koscielny was one of the worst buys that Wenger had ever made. The defender found it very hard to adapt to life in the Premier League last season and seemed to be off the pace for the most part.
However, since then, the player has gone on to prove his worth and has managed to really pull through.
Should he keep this act up, he could easily go down as being one of the regular first choice defenders for the team in the near future.
