Podolksi - Inter move was a mistake

The World Cup winner, who hit just one goal in 17
Serie A appearances, says that he was simply not
suited to the Italian game
Lukas Podolski has admitted that he made a
mistake in joining Inter on loan and is now
determined to force his way back into the Arsenal
first team.
The Germany international linked up with the
Nerazzurri in January, with a view to a permanent
switch to San Siro this summer.
However, the World Cup winner is now returning to
the Emirates after managing just one goal in 17
Serie A appearances.
Podolksi argued, though, that he was simply not
suited to the Italian game and that he still has
plenty to offer Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.

"English football is the one which best suits my
style, but I know how suddenly everything can
change," the 30-year-old told Bild .
"I have characteristics to help different teams, but
it was a mistake to go to Inter with no redemption
clauses.
"In football, there are times when everything
doesn't work out for the best. You're not always
playing as a starter and you just have to accept the
decisions and work on your own game.
"That's what I did, but now I'm looking forward.
I've always felt comfortable [at Arsenal].
"With the fans, with the team and also with the
manager. I'm going back to play, I have to say my
qualities suit Arsenal."
