Wojciech Szczesny revealed not winning the Premier League during his time with Arsenal is “still bugging me from the inside”.<\/p>\n
The goalkeeper joined Arsenal as a teenager from Legia Warsaw in 2006 before making his first-team debut in the 2009-10 season.<\/p>\n
He made 181 appearances for the Gunners and kept 69 clean sheets before his permanent exit in 2017, which came after a two-year loan spell with Roma.<\/p>\n
Since January 2000, only Jens Lehmann (78) has kept more clean sheets for Arsenal than Szczesny, while the former Poland shot-stopper has made the most saves for the club in that time (476).<\/p>\n
The 36-year-old won two FA Cups and one Community Shield during his time in north London, but failed to get his hands on the Premier League.<\/p>\n
Arsenal led the league for the most part of the 2013-14 season, but were out of the title race before April as they eventually finished fourth, seven points behind eventual champions Manchester City.<\/p>\n
“When I was there, we had one season when we were on top of the league for a very long time, and we lost in the end,” Szczesny, who was the joint-winner of the Golden Glove in 2013-14, told The Athletic.<\/p>\n
“I felt we were the best team in the league. But we were a very young, inexperienced team, and in the end, when it mattered, we fell short.<\/p>\n
\n“This isn’t just about winning the title as a group of players. This is about something that represents an area, represents values, represents people’s dreams.”<\/p>\n
