Former Aston Villa star Thomas Hitzlsperger is backing Lukas Podolski for success with Arsenal.
Podolski is moving to Arsenal from FC Cologne.
"He's a good lad and a very good football player," Hitzlsperger told talkSPORT. "Looking at the Euros it wasn't his tournament to be honest but I think he needs a change.
"He needs to get away from Germany, play a different style of football and play in a team that is very good where they don't just focus on him.
"At Cologne he was the main man and he couldn't always fulfill his potential but he is a very good player and I wish him good luck."
