Oh my god, so many stupid comments, but to be fair, mostly not Arsenal supporters. His Dad has made comments in Poland or to Polish press...guess what they and his Dad are interested in? His form as it relates to Poland!!! Therefore the article is in reference to last summer's campaign and not about his recent performances. Secondly, his form is not useless, admittedly not world-class either but lets be reasonable and say Arsenal's defensive performance is as much to do with the back 4 as well. Incidently, Arsenal's stats also show Arsenal's defence is way better than perceived. Note both comments about his mouth come from Spurs supporters, unfortunately, some people are jsut really stupid when it comes to understanding why people say things in interviews and why they may have reason to tow the corporate line for their club or country.

I expect more mocking headlines than this. "Are you gonna cry to your MUMMY next Wojciech?" before throwing virtual mud at him, or stealing his sweets might be a more tactful approach.

I'm amazed how much criticism Szczesny's getting, well I should be, but I'm not really given the age we're living in where every footballer's expected to be the model of consistency from the off and written off as soon as they have a few poor games. He might be off form at the moment, but 22 is a very young age for a goalkeeper, and he's demonstrated that he's got the potential to become very good indeed. Probably a good time to take him out of the firing line at the moment, but he'll be back.

To be fair this is his father making these comments, not Szczesny himself. He has underperformed this season for sure and for me the best thing that could happen is we sign an experienced keeper in the summer, someone in the 32-34 age bracket, not too long left in their career but someone will teach and develop Szczesny. This way we get an experienced keeper and Szczesny knows that he has to work harder without being too undermined, he¿s a confident lad and I reckon he has the balls to bounce back from this.

Ah right, that clears it up. The reason he can't pass, save shots or close down attackers is because poor little Wojciech hurt himself last year and Wenger brutishly demanded he did, well, what he's paid to do and play... Interesting to think of the kepers who have come back from career (and life) threatening injuries and don't look total liabilities whereas Szczesny has been awful all season after suffering a foot injury last year. He's a sign of Arsenal 2013 - lack of talent but huge ego and overly loved by Wenger who should've dropped him months ago.

Sure, so the recent poor performance of a goalkeeper is due to playing through injury almost a year ago, before the 2012 summer break. That makes perfect sense.

Bless his dad but maybe his son should concentrate on his training and performances instead of mouthing off in the press. This kind of comment really doesn't help the situation apart from giving us a few cheap laughs.

Ah- so NOW we know why he's such a cocky tool.

Sorry Mr. Szczesny, but his lack of form is because he is genuinely useless. If he trained his skills more than his mouth, maybe he would be better.
