The Frenchman has been berated in the past for selling the Gunners’ best players, but in this instance his hands were tied. After seven years at Arsenal the Polish shot-stopper had let his contract run down and was free to move wherever he liked.

Although prone to regular errors during the formative years of his Arsenal career, he matured into a fantastic goalkeeper and arguably the best second choice in the Premier League.
It will be the second time this season that Arsene Wenger’s side will be facing a former Arsenal keeper when they meet Swansea this weekend, with a brace from Alexis Sanchez getting the better of Sunderland’s Vito Mannone recently. Will Lukasz Fabianski suffer the same fate?
