Arsenal legend Seaman questions whether Szczesny can fight back

Arsenal legend David Seaman is unsure about the quality of Wojciech Szczesny.

Seaman, who clocked up 564 appearances during his illustrious career with Arsenal, believes Szczesny may struggle to reclaim the No1 jersey.

He told Sky Sports: "Jens Lehmann was a quality goalkeeper. People remember him for being crazy but he was a quality goalkeeper.

"Since then, you've got a lot young goalkeepers coming in and it's not easy for them.

"Arsenal's a massive club and you're under so much pressure all the time and it can sometimes get to the younger goalkeepers.

"I don't know [if Szczesny will win back his No1 spot]. It's quite interesting with Fabianski doing really well.

"He's worked really hard since his injury and he looks totally different goalkeeper. But it's great to have that competition."
