So Wenger has totally mismanged him. Out of position, expecting him to defend which tbf he does try but hes not very good at it, case in point, the last game v Mancs. He tracked back but he didnt do much. So yes i blame Wenger mostly.

Saying that though, Arshavin is an international and a captain at that as Wenger made sure we knew and he probably could have done better to fight the effects of Wengeritis. He seems disinterested now.

Move him on. Hopefully will still get £10m for him from Anzhi Makelele whatever and that £10m will go down well in the pockets of Wenger and the board
Rubbish, He had been playing well till about Russia not going to the world cup then he sulked for a year because of it. now he can't be bothered and is only worried about his bank balance.

He saw the way we play before he joined, could have gone else where if he hated it, only thing AW is reposnisble foris still playing him.
