Anyway,
before I was sidetracked by Andyp's disparaging comments about spurs fans attitude to youth, I was going to say, wasn't Arshavin a revelation on saturday, busy, precise, always dangerous, and a goal that reminded me of kanu's shot from the byline for arsenal against chelsea. He looked class! I'm gutted Spurs didn't get him when we put in our bid over the summer, and then Zenit holding out for more money from us and playing hardball, got screwed by Arsenal for less, during the jan transfer window, when it was obvious Arshavin would never play for them again....
plus on a related spurs note, it seems we could have had quaresma for bentley during the transfer window, so a proper left sided midfielder/winger to give us balance and getting shot of the underperforming right footed/being kept out of the side by Lennon Bentley, but Levy stuck his oar in asking for money, rather than a straight swap, and Quaresma's agent took him to Chelsea..
Just shows Levy's in it for the money and not the football...
