Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny is sounding very confident after an impressive run of pre-season victories in the Far East. 

Recall that Arsenal played and won all four games during their Asia tour of Indonesia and Vietnam scoring 19 goals in the process. According to Laurent, the wins are good confidence booster as they head up to the weekend for the Emirate cup against the likes of Galatasaray, FC Porto and Napoli. quoting Koscielny..."We won all our games so that's good for confidence. We had a lot of training and all the players trained very well and gave themselves for the team.
"Pre-season is very important for the Premier League. It's a long season so we need to be fit - I think we did well.
"The wins give us some confidence, and it's good for the next games - the Emirates Cup, [the friendly] against Manchester City and the start of the season."
There we go again with this Gunner guys, they impress during pre-season but when the chips are down during league games, the confidence disappears. Well, soccer2theworld wish them well in the approaching season.
