Arsene Wenger wrapped up as many as five quality signings on the transfer deadline day but not
all members of his squad are feeling confident about the future ahead.

midfielder such as Rennes' Yann M'Vila not only left the Arsenal midfield incomplete, but also
prevented Wenger from compensating for the departures of Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri.

Like Gulliver in Lilliput, 6'6″ German giant Per Mertesacker towers above Arsene Wenger's
collection of pint-sized playmakers, including the diminutive Russian Andrei Arshavin.
Arsenal fans wanted height, and lo and behold, the French tactician gave them height.

Andrei Arshavin's fortunate 40th minute goal against Swansea at the Emirates
was enough to claim all 3 points for the Gunners and take a bit of the pressure off manager Arsene
Wenger. But watch how Swansea keeper makes a mess of it!

Made my first trip to see a match at the Emirates today to watch Arsenal play Swansea. Luckily I
saw Arsenal win 1-0. But it was far from an impressive performance by the Gunners.

when Danny Graham shot over from the edge of the six yard box.

It's not often we feature action from the Belgian Cup but when you get gifted with a peach like
this...well, it would be remiss of us not to share.
Specifically, the game in question is Jupiler League side RAEC Mons' trip to second-tier outfit
Tubize last night, in which Tubize defender Andrei gave his opponent's a helping hand/head on their
way to a routine 3-0 victory by charging full-beans into the box and bulleting an unstoppable
diving header past his own keeper from 12 yards.
Andrei who plays for Tubize scores against his own team in a game Mons-Bergen.Super diving
header.Wrong goal.
Follow the money.
It's a solid rule in sport, whether in prognosticating, betting or choosing one's career path.
It also remains true for intriguing storylines.
Anzhi's got some money. They've got some story lines, too like the fact they just named Roberto
