Stale Solbakken says that his former Cologne player Lukas Podolski will be successful in England.

Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Stale Solbakken has predicted that Arsenal newcomer Lukas Podolski will prove to be a big success in the Premier League.

The Dane, who coached the German international at Cologne, believes that Podolski's versatility in attack will be vital to the Gunners' squad next season.

"I think he has the right temperament for the Premier League," said Solbakken. "He can play in either of the forward positions.

"If Arsenal play their usual formation of 4-2-3-1, then Lukas can play in any of them.

"He's played on the right and he plays for Germany on the left. He has played as the main striker and just behind the main striker. He can do all these things. He will be a success."

Solbakken officially took over as Wolves boss earlier this week.
