i thought this boy wasnt bad having been dumped out of the euro qualifiers, but he is truely a special player after seeing him tonight for zenit against rangers, and he was playing mostly down the left where some people have been pointing out that is a position where we need to strengthen considering giggs is nearing the end, what do people think of him ? does anyone know how much he could cost ? and does anyone think he might be a good signing ?

Yep that's the fella, here's his wiki entry:

Arshavin graduated from Smena football school. In 1999 and early 2000 he played for Zenit's farm club, Zenit-2, in the Second Division.

In 2000 he was included in Zenit squad. He played in various positions on the field, starting as a right midfielder, then as an attacking midfielder and finally adopted second striker's role playing on a flank or behind a target man. He won the Russian Premier League Award for the player of the season largely because of his ability play well as a winger, playmaker and as a striker.

Arshavin scored 11 goals in his 25 matches for Zenit in the UEFA Cup and also won it on 14th may 2008.

In the 2007 Russian Premier League season Arshavin guided his Zenit St Petersburg side to the title, starting all 30 matches - scoring 10 goals and providing 11 assists along the way. It was the club's first league title since claiming the now defunct Soviet Top League in 1984.

Control, vision and strong running are viewed among the abilities which characterise his style of play.

yeah...Smena and St.Petersburg forever!

 

[Banana-rama]

I told everyone before the match started that Arshavin was a class player, I was proved right again.

 

[Zenitka]

I told everyone before the match started that Arshavin was a class player, I was proved right again.

yes! you are right!

 

[Drew9]

zenitka whats the chances he'd want to come to united then ?

 

[Banana-rama]

If we win the Champion League then Arshavin will play against us in the Super Cup next season, if he stays at Zenit that is.

 

[Jazz 16]

Yes good call banana You did say that before the match.

 

[-zuco-]

Yes good call banana You did say that before the match.

And about 12 times after too.

 

[spellbound]

Arshi hate Abramovich and Chelsea!

He is fantastic player, but he have nasty character!

I love him now. Anyway till we meet him in Euro. LOL When he served his international ban.

zenitka whats the chances he'd want to come to united then ?

With a bad character there's NO chance he'll be playing in Manchester United as long as Sir Alex Ferguson is the manager. Fergie is the champion of team building.

 

[haggler]

and i say again he would be crucified by our press and rival fans with a name like that .

 

[Van Nistelruffi]

zenit is one of the richest club in the world.. Arshavin earn 4 mln euros in a year and his price is 40 mln euros according to his contract. So it's also difficult to buy him..Gunners were link with him but I think it's too expensive for them
