Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny has said that he still remembers the "unbelievable noise" made by Liverpool fans at Anfield in what was his competitive debut for the Gunners in 2010.

Koscielny landed at the north London outfit from French side Lorient in the summer of 2010 and was handed his competitive debut by Arsene Wenger at the intimidating Anfield against Liverpool.




The defender collected two yellow cards in second half stoppage time and was sent off, but he still fondly recollects the amazing atmosphere created by the Liverpool faithful, saying that the noise at the stadium was unbelievable.

“I remember my first game at Anfield – August 2010”, he told the FA.
 


“The noise was unbelievable, and I had just played one season in the first division in France.

"I think I played well but I received two yellow cards. I think it was harsh.

“But I’ve got better because I have worked hard and played a lot of games.”

The Frenchman has come a long way since his early days in English football and has become an indispensable member of Wenger’s first team.

The 29-year-old has gone on to make over 200 appearances for the Gunners and has scored 16 goals in the process. This season he has scored three times from his 27 Premier League outings.
