GUNNER OF THE WEEK

This is an absolute biased post because he is my absolute favorite!!!

He is a brilliant leftie and his technique is one of a kind. His swift venomous attacks makes him a favorite amongst many. He is none other than...   


Prince Poldi :D 
Lukas Josef Podolski.

Born June 1985 in Poland, Lukas made his debut in 1995 playing for FC Kohln. He then reached first team status in 2003 with a staggering 81 appearances. In 2008 he joined Bayern Munich where he took them to victory wining 2 trophies in that season.

In 2012 he joined Arsenal scoring his first goal on 2 September 2012, in the 2-0 win against Liverpool at Anfield (aah the good days lol).  Apart from being a fierce attacker and superb scorer, Podolski is great at assisting and played pivotal parts assisting to Carzola and Wallcot during the 2012/2013 season.

From 2004 up until now, Prince Poldi has been playing for Germany and recently scored thee fastest goal in football history in their country when they played Equador in May 2014. He is undoubtedly the 5th highest scorer in German history. His brilliant volley in the AFC vs Montpellier game was recorded as goal of the season. This proves that he is indeed a creative player and some even call him a "finisher".

I'm not sure what his future plans are, but I really hope that he will be staying at the Armoury and that we will be seeing more of him on the pitch :)

Ooh to be, oooh to be, ooo to be a Gooner!!!
