The former Arsenal man was in fine form last year and the odd adage of 'Flappy-Handski' has been largely consigned to history. Having joined on a free transfer last summer to become the club's No 1, the 6ft 3in keeper has already impressed so much that he signed a four-year extension in July. Monk was delighted to have secured the Pole to a new contract - with the goalkeeper reportedly a target of German giants Borussia Dortmund - and he has already said that Fabianski is a key performer in the Swansea side. With 13 clean sheets in the Premier League last year, he was one of the most consistent shot-stoppers going. He is also a goalkeeper that can get off his line quickly so, behind a tough defensive line, the 30-year-old will prove difficult for Papiss Cisse and Co to score past.
