Arsenal's Wojciech Szczesny: 'Swansea City are a quality team'

Szczesny "appreciates" Swansea's quality

Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has warned his teammates against underestimating Swansea City when they take on the Welsh side in the Premier League on Saturday.

The 22-year-old believes that Michael Laudrup has assembled a "quality team" that will fight for maximum points at the Emirates.

"I think they're a quality team, so it will be a very tough game and a very important game," he told Arsenal's official website.

"They have changed their style a little bit, they don't keep possession for ages, they are a little bit more direct. But they still try to play very good football and as a football fan, I appreciate that: I like watching them.

"Going forward they score a lot of goals, but hopefully they won't on Saturday. I have been watching them and they have impressed me. But we are very confident, we should be winning these kind of games at home."

Arsenal are just a point ahead of Swansea in seventh place in the Premier League at the moment.
