Thomas Eisfeld is happy to see Arsenal's German contingent continue to swell.

Another German international, Lukas Podolski, has agreed to join the Club this summer and Eisfeld admits he can't wait for the 26-year-old's arrival.

"He is a very good player, so it is exciting," he told arsenal.com. "He is world class. I grew up watching him play in big tournaments, and he is great to watch."
