The standout save from last season being the last-minute stop on a Patrik Schick breakaway to preserve a win over Roma. Ironically, two of my favorite saves from this season came from both games against Valencia — the first being the penalty stop at the death, at the Mestalla, to keep a clean sheet; the second being in the reverse fixture in Turin, an acrobatic one-handed stop that surely saved the game and clinched Juve a spot in the knockout stage of the Champions League.

Szczesny fought off competition from Gianluigi Buffon to remain Juve's first-choice netminder last season, but his position may not be secure after the summer window.
Although Buffon has already announced his decision to depart, the Bianconeri are being heavily linked with Milan star Gianluigi Donnarumma, who is set to become a free agent at the end of the month. Szczesny still has three years remaining on his contract at the Allianz Stadium, but his place in the team could come under serious threat if Juve are able to bring in Donnarumma on a free ahead of the campaign - with the year-old widely regarded as one of the best keepers in European football.
The Pole moved to Arsenal at the age of 15, cementing himself as our first choice in After a couple of mistakes cost us a defeat at Southampton he was dropped when caught smoking in the showers. As part of his coaching badges he stopped when realising he also would have to coach other positions to get the badge our ex number one worked 1-on-1 with the keepers.
Szczesny talks about struggling mentally when he broke a bone in both arms and credits the Arsenal legend for being a massive part in supporting him. Yet he seems most proud of how long it takes to wrap a car up in cling film. One he regrets is taking a selfie at White Hart Lane.
He was waiting for that one opportunity admitting he was delighted when both were injured for the trip to Old Trafford.
Smoking Incident It seems this was not as juicy as the media made out, there was no Arsene Wenger throwing the hair dryer at his keeper. His manager was aware of the habit but simply asked for it not to go on in changing rooms.
