Sidwell or Arshavin

[Gazdalf]

I would like to state here and now that I want neither. If you want logic then I guess I will have to sober up.



I offer this for now"They don't suit us"

In addition, 7 games in one season does not constitute a good player. Just my opinion though. Unfortunately I watch too much football. He has a ego problem(Faddyesque). Obviously Arshavin. The Sidwell thing I have not stopped laughing about yet.

I'd rather have Arshavin.

But saying that, what happens when Pienaar returns from ACN - is Arshavin largely a left winger, or is he equally effective in a more central role.

Long term, we may need a replacement for Carsley, which would point more in the direction of Sidwell.

We don't need Arshavin (I have reservations) and Manny is the long term replacement for the Cars master.

Looks like Vogel is off the radar (apologies if this has already been mentioned, I checked around and couldn't find it anywhere, it's worse than shopping in Tesco!).

If he's not good enough for Sunderland surely he isn't good enough for us?

Should there be an 'and' between there or are you mental and drink wine with vodka in it?

The point is we will be be able to replace like for like when one is unavailable or rested - a la Arsenal. The fact we have been unable to is the reason we are not automatically considered CL condenders. Look at what happened when we lost Top Cat at the start of the season and Mikel recently Think how nice it would be to rest Arteta to keep him fresh for the Chelsea game yet play someone almost as good as him for the Wigan game (which I don't think will be as easy as pie-eating)

Arshavin can play in a number of positions. winger, attacking midfeilder, shadow striker, or deep lying forward. very versitile. if fernandez does turn out to be Manelele, imagine this:

................Fenandez

Arteta Cahill Pienaar Arshavin

id play Arteta on the right because he has more freedom, he only has to cover the opposing winger, which means he can get the ball and go forward. i read somewhere Pienaar would prefer to play in the middle. Arshavin would be the sex on the left, real pace and dribbling ability, also know his way to goal !
