Former Arsenal midfielder Alexander Hleb, now with Stuttgart, again declared he made the wrong
decision in leaving the North London club for Barcelona.
In an interview published by ESPN Soccernet, the Belarus International said:
Of course I regret leaving Arsenal. I was playing every week for one of the most exciting sides
in Europe, a team which was always in the top-four in the Premier League and were Champions League
contenders.

rumour of his switch from Fulham is just newspaper talk.
Someone is telling porkies. Or at least evading the truth with smoke and mirrors. It comes down

We have waited for three weeks and the wait will soon be over. Zlatan Ibrahimovic will make his
debut for the blaugrana on Wednesday when the team takes on Manchester City at Camp Nou.

I had the opportunity to speak with Andy Brassell of the BBC's excellent World Football Phone-in
on Up All Night. I want to emphasize that for those of us who follow the Bundesliga, this show,
although based in England, can be a massive resource. Tim Vickery, with his knowledge of South
American Players, and Andy with his knowledge of the continental players as well as the Bundesliga
itself can aid us in getting to understand new players to the league.
Yes he left the club under a very big cloud and now bleats on about how he made a big mistake
when leaving Arsenal, but clearly he is still capable of some footballing magic as evidenced with
this fine goal for Stuttgart. It's worth noting however that this goal was scored against the
mighty Timi?
That noise you can hear Mr. Hleb is the sound of the smallest Violin playing a song, just for
you!
Alexander Hleb admits he made a mistake in leaving Arsenal last summer.
The Belarus midfielder has returned to Stuttgart, four years after he left the Bundesliga side,
on a year-long loan deal after a difficult season at Barcelona.
