Arshavin

I think the fact the boss would rather use benny and tommy over him spell that even the boss wants him out thank god.

[Master Splinter]

Strangely, he did nothing wrong today.

No stray two-yard passes, no Bendtner-like terrible ball control, no embarrassing tumbles.

He was lively, linked up well with the forwards and put in some good crosses. Almost got a goal too.

This is perhaps the most surprising event of the season.

Still needs to GTFO though as I'm sure today was a momentous blip.

[Marc Overmars]

He has no confidence to take players on anymore, which was a major strength of his.

Ox should be given a chance ahead of him.

Has no confidence or just can not be bothered ?

[Marc Overmars]

Bit of both probably. He always used to be able to quickly drop his shoulder and turn his marker inside out, we don't see that anymore.

He's a bit of a nothing player now which is a shame. Close to Chamakh actually in terms of providing precisely nothing when called upon, although no one is as bad as that guy tbf.

[Cripps_orig]

He was alright today

[Dennis Bendtner]

His attempt from the edge which went inches over was very good. Not many players can do that.

Unfortunately that was the only thing he did. A familiar pattern, really. His virtue as a sub would be running at defenders, but he is sidewaysing that shit like Denilson these days.

[Cripps_orig]

Or Arteta tbh

[Kano]

He has no confidence to take players on anymore, which was a major strength of his.
def agree with that, in the past couple of games he literally comes to a standstill when faced with a defender or two and then passes sideways or back.

the ox will appear more in january, wenger has said as much.

:lol: harsh but unfourtunatly too bloody true :(

[Xhaka Can’t]

Transferring Arshavin out will be like a new signing.

[Cripps_orig]

Thought he looked good v Wolves.

Needs to start more games ahead of flops such as Gervinho

My mate wrote this on Arshavin. Found the struggle to adapt to the Western footie calendar quite interesting. Hadn't considered that. Of course, he's really a lazy, fat fuck, but still.
