Wojciech Szczęsny

Once identified as a “future great, great goalkeeper” by Arsene Wenger, there seems to be little surprise in the fact that today, he is lined up as a potential long-term replacement for the legendary Gigi Buffon at Juventus.

One could argue that his concentration levels on the pitch and discipline off it always were a cause for concern, however, being loaned-out and subsequently sold right after jointly winning the Premier League Golden Glove award for 2013-14 season does question the management’s decision as well.

Putting in perspective that Cech is past his prime, Ospina’s inconsistencies and that Arsenal have failed to keep a clean sheet for over two months now, point to the fact that a keeper of Szczesny’s calibre could have been the answer to Arsenal’s defensive woes.
