... and Scolari and Wenger. He thinks the Premiership is the best league; he watches the English
league in the weekends; and, more importantly, he wants to change clubs. He said all this in an
interview to the BBC [audio link -- thanks to a comment from yesterday's post.] So where's the
catch? Well, for one, [.

The jewel in Russia's crown made his Euro 2008 debut against Sweden after missing the first two
games due to suspension. Arshavin turned in an awesome performance, which has managers across the
world drooling over him; and with everyone salivating over the Russian skillster, this BBC journo
feels he is too good to be at [.
LONDON, England (CNN) -- Arsenal would be an ideal transfer option for Andrei Arshavin because of
the influence of manager Arsene Wenger, the Russian midfielder's agent claims. "The stable
situation in the club and the influence of Arsene Wenger to Arsenal and to English football is
huge. I think this is an advantage," Dennis Lachter told [.
[Telegraph] - Arsenal have been rejected by two of their top transfer targets, Andrei Arshavin and
Falcao, who have both rebuffed the north London club's overtures to sign them, according to
reports. Arshavin, the Russian playmaker subject to intense speculation of a move to the Premier
League this summer, reiterated his desire to join Barcelona but [.
Arsenal's Arsene Wenger likely to make £20m move for Andrei Arshavin Full Article Arsenal
manager Arsene Wenger is expected to make a £20 million bid for Andrei Arshavin in January
after watching his side struggle to break down Portsmouth. While refusing to name the Russia
playmaker, Wenger said: "I need a creative midfielder but I won't announce a [.
Greece
JUNE 04. Greece Fifa ranking. 61
JUNE 08. Greece Fifa ranking. 10.
That says it all really. Greece's 2004 victory was simply the biggest shocker in the history of the game and they are the most improved team in Europe over the past 5 years. No one expects them to win this again, especially after we spanked them 4-0 in Gingernuts 1st game.
Luiz Felipe Scolari, from now on here at the Offside known as Uncle Phil, hasn't even taken over
at Chelsea yet. That hasn't stopped the rumor mill, and it's continued ridiculousness, from
churning out obscene amounts of transfer speculation regarding the club. A whole heap of numbers is
being thrown around, but the one popping up the most is £100mil.
It looks like Zenit may be holding on to Andrei Arshavin whether he likes it or not. They hinted
that the Arsenal target may remain in Russia as no 'interesting' bids have been received for the
playmaker. Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is known to be a fan of Arshavin, and it was even rumoured
that the club [.

This indecisions bugging me
If you dont want me, set me free
Come on and let me know
Should I cool it or should I blow?
Should I stay or should I go now?
Aaaahhh the good ole Clash, you've gotta love them and never were more those words more appropriate
then when looking at the many indecision regarding so many players across Europe.
If Ashley Young is worth £30 million then I'm worth £50 million and I'll through in the
rights to Pro Soccer Weekly. Martin O'Neill is crazy if he thinks he can get that much a fringe
player on the England team that can't even make it to the Euro 2008 tournament and is drawing 2-2
with a weakened Czech Republic team.
In a mild surprise Zenit St. Petersburg defeated Manchester United 2-1 to claim the European Super
Cup, which matches the winner of the Champions League against the winner of the UEFA Cup. Andrei
Arshavin did get to play for Zenit in the second half and nearly scored soon after coming on. Its
also yet another cup that Manchester United were playing for as they are entered in at least 7
competitions that I can think of with a trophy of some sort on the line.
Morning all. Last day of 2008 has come and I'm still alive and if you're reading this so are you so
congratulations on making it through another year. Yesterday I ran down the first half of our
January transfer preview for Arsenal and today I'm going to finish that off with the second half of
who we should buy and maybe even a little who we should sell.
Zenit St Petersburg midfielder Andrei Arshavin admits he wants a move to Spain from his Russian
club. Arshavin has been a bright spot for the Russian national team who were impressive in Euro
2008, and he is hoping this might further his chances of going to a club in Spain where he'd like
to play. "Perhaps [.
Ha! So there, naysayers. The semi-final is always the canary in the mine for these international
gatherings, and you know that when UEFA or whomever on the web with a rudimentary knowledge of
iMovie eulogizes this glorious tournament in the form of second rate, poorly edited remembrance
vids to be downloaded, stolen, and uploaded in grainy, Japanese-subtitled representations on
Youtube and the
Zenit St Petersburg star, and Russian frontman, Andrei Arshavin is now stating his intention to
make a move, and his hope that the team will be Barcelona. "I've been a supporter of Barcelona
all my life. Barcelona is my dream. I never thought that I would have a genuine chance to play for
that [...
Here he is.. you can have him for £24 million!! Yesterday Barcelona bid £12 million and
was shot down like a dodo bird with Zenit saying he's worth £24 mill.
This strapping 27-year old fellow lead Zenit St Petersburg to the UEFA Cup victory. In the final he
managed to tally two assists in their dominating 2-0 victory against the Scottish side Rangers.
Howdy. That's how we do it here in Florida, with a howdy. We've got a good bit of stuff today
actually, so that's good because there hasn't been much to write about for oh...about six weeks. So
let's get right down to it!
First off, Robert Pires has been selected as the 6th greatest Arsenal player of all time!
London, England (Sports Network) - Russia star Andrei Arshavin has set his heart on a move to
Arsenal, according to his agent. The Zenit St. Petersburg playmaker has been linked with moves to
the Gunners, Chelsea and Barcelona following his eye-catching performances at Euro 2008. Earlier in
the week, agent Dennis Lachter revealed an unnamed Premier League [.
The incredible sulk is off for what looks like a good price for Tottenham, but it throws up the
question of who (or is it whom? Damn my common ways) Spurs should buy. I think Ramos and Levy
already know the answer to this. From the day Ramos joined he would have known that Berba was [...]

Poor old Rafa Benitez nearly quit Liverpool because of how they handled the whole transfer saga
regarding Gareth Barry according to this article in the London Times. Well my answer to that is boo
hoo poor Rafa. If you want to quit Liverpool go ahead and do it because you are far from God's gift
to management.
Morning everyone. I'm back. I was down in Orlando the past couple days watching Less Than Jake and
Rancid play some shows. It was pretty amazing, not gonna lie. So what did I miss? By the looks of
it not all that much. Some big teams are out of the Euros: Holland, France, Portugal. Turkey and
Russia are looking really good and Spain versus Italy today.
Arsene Wenger might be taking a leaf out of Fagin's book this summer. The Charles Dickens character
sings about 'picking a pocket or two' in the musical version of Oliver Twist and it appears that
the Frenchman is looking to 'sign a Russian or two' after watching them at Euro 2008. But which
Russians, if any, [.
Predicting results at Euro 2008 is about as useful as a chocolate teapot (I had
the Dutch to beat Portugal in the final and look where that got me) but the Spanish midfield duo of
Cesc Fabregas and Marcos Senna may be enough for people to take a
punt on Spain finally winning a major trophy.
There aren't many players who could potentially placate unhappy United fans about the possible loss
of Cristiano Ronaldo this summer, but you do wonder if Arshavin is one of them. The Russian
midfield general has been in sparkling form in Euro 2008 and anyone who has had the pleasure to
watch him perform on the big stage over the last two years will testify that he is no flash in the
pan.
It's Spain v Germany on Sunday to decide who will win Euro 2008. The former secured their place in
the final with a comprehensive 3-0 beating of Russia, with Cesc Fabregas coming off the bench in
the second half to magnificent effect. The Arsenal midfielder has certainly strengthened his case
for a place in the [.

Potential Arsenal target Andrei Arshavin believes he could be priced out of any potential move to a
top European club. The 27-year-old star of the European Championships, has lashed out at current
club Zenit St Petersburg, who are demanding nearly £24million for the Russian international
striker. "Zenit are asking for so much money," said Arshavin.
Media reports claim that Spurs have put in a new bid for Russian star Andrei Arshavin. Sport
Express claims that the Zenit St Petersburg player's agent, Dennis Lachter, admitted to local
journalists that an offer from Spurs had arrived for the Russian international, but it was being
put on-hold while they wait for Barcelona to firm [.
Tottenham will complete the signing of Russian playmaker Andrei Arshavin 'in the next five days',
according to the player's agent. Arshavin's agent Dennis Lachter told Sky Sports News that his
client has agreed personal terms with Spurs and the deal could be announced by the weekend if a fee
for the 27-year-old can be agreed with [.
Andrei Arshavin's agent still expects the Russian's move to Tottenham to go through despite his
club Zenit St Petersburg holding out for a bigger fee. Media reports this morning claim that Spurs
boss Juande Ramos is only prepared to pay the £16million they have already tabled for the play
maker. But according to the Sun, the Russians [.
Juande Ramos personally convinced Zenit St Pertersburg playmaker Andrei Arshavin to join Spurs
after outlining the role he foresees for the Russian at White Hart Lane. Arshavin's agent revealed
the Spaniard called the 27-year-old to explain his plans for the future. And Russia's hero of this
summer's Euro 2008 was suitably impressed and now looks on the [.
Andrei Arshavin insists he will keep on 'whining' until Zenit St Petersburg let him join Tottenham.
The Russian playmaker insists personal terms have been agreed with Spurs but the fee for his sale
remains in excess of £19million - a figure Tottenham are unwilling to match and which Arshavin
is becoming increasingly frustrated with.

As the things are slowly starting to stir up before the transfer window reopens in January, rumors
are also piling up. One of the interesting stories that could finally come to its end in January is
Andrei "the slave" Arshavin's saga. Before the Euro 2008, no one had even heard of this
versatile player, but [.
Arsenal are set to step up their £10m pursuit of Swiss international Goekhan Inler in the wake
of Cesc Fabregas' KO blow, according to the Daily Star. The Gunners had been keeping close tabs on
the central midfielder this season, even before Fabregas' knee ligament damage. Meanwhile, reports
in the Telegraph suggest that the injury [.
Russian star Arshavin lit up Manchester last night in the UEFA Cup final when producing the game's
only genuine moments of class, Zenit St Petersburg won two-nil, Arshavin was at the heart of both
goals.
In truth, the match itself was like too many finals, with so much at stake, not that memorable and
there were few technical skills on view.
