I don't usually comment on hair stories but there is no way that that barnet is cut any other way than with a basin and some scissors.

bbc gossip column:

New Arsenal signing Andrey Arshavin will pay for his hairdresser from St Petersburg to fly to London to cut his hair because his wife does not trust British stylists. (Daily Express)

3-0 Gooners, lovely. Bit worried about the atmosphere though :oops:

Can everyone just please lift themselves from now on? What is so hard about finding your voice? (This is not aimed at forum regulars, just the odd guest viewing this forum who never sings :wink: )

I agree with HighburyJD.
Either Denilson or Songgg Billongggg must play in the centre. For tackling purposes.

Although Diaby should be better defensivly. The man looks like a brick wall.

In today's Grauniad
Wenger's keen wiles would not allow him to be firmly drawn on whether Arshavin will start today but the likelihood is he will, the Frenchman hinting that the Russian will operate on the left with Samir Nasri on the right, a combination that "looks good".

"The potential is there, the speed is there, we've always played with two players on the flanks who can create the game. But Arshavin can make runs as well, in behind without the ball. We had players like Freddie Ljungberg before who create those kind of deep runs from the flanks."
He also compares him with Pele and Maradonna. :shock:
