Bernd Leno admits to frustrations over start to Arsenal life

Bernd Leno made his debut in the Europa League win over Vorskla having been left on the bench for the first five Premier League games. The German goalkeeper admits that his start to life at Arsenal has been a "frustrating" one as he's been overlooked for Petr Cech in the Premier League. “I came to the club to play every game,” Leno told the Evening Standard after that 4-2 win. “But I think to move to a bigger club, another country, it needs maybe a little bit of time. It is a bit frustrating but I keep calm and work very hard to improve. "The coach always makes the starting XI because of the performance. I think it could change, not every week, but he will change a lot. "He didn’t say the league is Petr’s competition and the Europa League is mine. I will work every day hard to play more games. “I came for the Premier League. I think it is the best. The Bundesliga is good but the Premier League is better, so I will look forward to playing any time in the Premier League." “The game that the coach wants is my style," he said. "I think I did a good job with the ball, with the passing. Of course, the two goals were disappointing, but they scored great goals. Maybe I need a little bit of time. “It is a little bit more of a risk to play this way because we don’t want to kick the ball up front. We want to play because we have the players to play from the back to have more space in the opposite 18-yard box. "
