Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny feels that he is getting better as a player all the time.

Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny has suggested that he is improving as a player with every season that passes.

The 29-year-old has won two FA Cups and made 195 appearances for the Gunners since joining them from Lorient for £9.7m in 2010.

Koscielny has said that many aspects of his game have come on during his time at the Emirates Stadium.

"I've improved my technique, my physical strength, my position on the pitch and my duels with the striker," he told Arsenal's official website. "I feel I've improved every year, each season I'm better, so I hope it will continue like this each year.

"My biggest development has been in aerial duels. For a centre-back that is very important when you are playing against a lot of long balls. We need to win these duels, find our feet to win the ball back and play, so maybe this is my most important quality. But everything is important.

"Psychologically you have to be prepared as there is a lot of pressure every game because we always want to win. All the games are important so you need to be ready in your body and in your head - so the two parts are important."

Arsenal face Liverpool at the Emirates this evening.
