Koscielny enjoying life at Arsenal

Defender Laurent Koscielny has said that he is enjoying life at Arsenal, and wants his new team mates to push on and improve their game even further.

Signed for £10 million from Lorient, Koscielny endured a fiery start to his Arsenal career when a reckless challenge from Liverpool midfielder Joe Cole almost caused him serious injury.

Koscielny said: "It has been a busy and satisfactory start for me. I am happy with my first few months at Arsenal.

"I have come to a big club where I knew things would seem different from my previous team, Lorient.

"Going abroad there is always that adaptation period for anybody, but there are a lot of French people here and there have been no problems integrating.

"I think things are getting better and better - communication with my team-mates is improving and I am settling very well.

"I know I will profit from the environment and lifestyle here.

"I am understanding more and more English - I have the football words already, like 'man on' and 'time' - those are the most important things to know as soon as you arrive."
