FABIANSKI Feeling More Confident About His Arsenal Future

The polish goalkeeper joined Arsenal at May 2007. He made his debut for Arsenal in the League Cup against Sheffield United and was captain for the game.

Łukasz Fabiański born in Kostrzyn nad Odrą (Poland) at 18 April 1985 is a Polish footballer who plays for English Premier League club Arsenal and the Polish national team as a goalkeeper.

After joining several clubs in his youth career, Fabiański then playe for senior team Lech Poznań in the 2004–05 season and Legia Warszawa in the winter of 2005. He helped Legia win the Polish league championship in the following 2005–06 season.

His performances in the 2005–06 and 2006–07 seasons led to him being awarded the "Football Oscar" for the best goalkeeper in the Polish Ekstraklasa.

When he came to Arsenal, Fabianski must be willing to be the third goalkeeper after Jens Lehmann and Manuel Almunia. When Lehmann moved and Almunia suffered an injury, Fabianski take a number one goalkeeper position. He played the last 4 games for Arsenal in the 2009–10 season. But He was criticised for conceding soft goals in the defeats to Wigan Athletic and Blackburn Rovers, however Fabiański was able to keep clean sheets in the games at home to Manchester City and Fulham.

Fabianski is not a bad goalkeeper. He often performed brilliantly. But his performance is often inconsistent. He is often critisized for some soft goals. So, Wenger prefer Wojciech Szczęsny as the first choice in the last two seasons. Fabiański then be as a backup to his compatriot Wojciech Szczęsny.
