Venky play foul in Blackburn takeover

After two years one still doesn't quite know why Venky's decided to takeover Blackburn. The one thing that has been established unequivocally is that they did not do it because they loved football.

Russian club Zenit St. Petersburg are said to be interested in signing Andrei Arshavin on loan according to reports from the icy city. Of course this should not come as a surprise to many fans who believe that the 30 year old is one of the club's recent worst signings.

Most of Arshavin's 27 appearances this season have been as a substitute, forcing Arsene Wenger to rule him and his misfiring strike partners Yossi Benayoun and Marouane Chamakh to the reserve team.
