better than Ospina.It was funny how it was made to look Szczesny was the cause of Arsenal's goals because of his mistakes.People also forget the kind of defence he's had in front of him from the

better.When Ospina first came he was also making the same mistakes Szczesny made but some ignored it insisting he was
better.I'd like to see Ospina go to AS Roma and do
better than Szczesny.Even Juventus are in for him even if their bid is derisory.Some also said the fact that Ospina had a cool head
over Szczesny meant he should start
over him.If you've watched Ospina and Szczesny

better.If I was Szczesny I won't
