Very good stat prof:
Chances created in CL:
1. Arshavin 38
2. Xavi 22
3. Fat Frank 21
Andrej is miles ahead of anybody despite playing far less matches.

Define "a chance" for me.

Looks like it was 15 to me.

I don't think Wenger would have him if he was offered for free.
He is nearing his peak and is regarded as one of the finest players around - leaving Wenger with no excuse for failure.
Think about it.

The Professor wrote:Think we paid 12m + another 3m performance based or something.
I remember Advocaat saying during the negotiation we didn't just know what a good footballer Arshavin was and we were paying far less than his worth. Can't find the quotes.

He's obviously a brilliant player and I was gutted at the time that Comolli fucked about with the deal when Arshavin and his agent were interested in coming to us, conveniently leaving the door open for Arsenal to swoop in. Saboteur!

Pierre Littbarski wrote:Lets face it, Arshavin was 27 when he left Zenit and was interested in Spurs & Arsenal.
27 and he has the choice of Spurs or Arsenal !
Does that sound like a top player ?
A top player at that age would move to Barca, Real, Chelsea, Milan or Inter.
He's only played in a handful of big games and he is this month 2 years shy of 30.
I think Shevchenko's place as the greatest player to come from the old USSR since the break up is hardly under threat.
I'm absolutely gutted that he's not a Barcelona player
We were the first ones to make a proper bid for him, but didn't realise his value and didn't offer more than 15m (initial bid which was put in the day after Russia-Holland in Euro 2008). Instead we bought Hleb
Even in January when Zenit finally agreed to Arsenal's demands Txiki should perhaps have gone in and made another offer around that price, even though Barça don't really need another player in the squad this season, thanks to the players' fitness holding up.
Pierre Littbarski wrote:But they didn't think he was worth what Arsenal paid.
Barca could have done with him TBF to sort out the left attacking position which is been such a problem for them in these last 2 seasons...
...incidentally, in 8 years how many Premiership goals did Henry score from open play at Anfield ?
I'm not 100% sure but I think its 4 less than Arshavin has scored.
