Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny thinks that the team will be stronger than last season.
The Polish keeper expects the current squad to be better than the one who finished third and is excited by the signings made by manager Arsene Wenger.
Szczesny told the club's official website: "This club always has the same aims and that's winning trophies.
"We obviously haven't done it in the last few years and that's disappointing for the players and the fans but I believe we will be that little bit stronger than we were last year.
"I think the players who were lacking experience last year now have that experience. We have a couple of signings, more players who can score goals. And Lukas Podolski's goal record speaks for itself."
The 22-year-old will wear the Arsenal number one shirt for the first time in the Gunners' Premier League opener against Sunderland on August 18.
