spurs have already got a place in europe, and as much as i would love to get Arse shavin i think spurs are very likley to throw an extra 20k a week at him and swoop in
 

Football FanCast Columnist Joe Jennings firmly believes Russian international, Andrei Arshavin is the man to bridge the gap between his beloved Everton and the "Top 3".
Rumours continue to circulate regarding the future of Russian international Andrei Arshavin, one thing has proved a certainty, and Arshavin is a player of real quality, a fine representative of his profession.

It is absolutely crucial, an imperative in fact, that Everton show ambition this summer, we have continually settled for summers of frustration, the days of mediocre signings should be banished from memory, they are no longer suffice.

Arshavin's natural ability to provide defence splitting passes is something that Everton desperately lack, particularly since the complete downturn in fortunes of Spaniard Mikel Arteta. Yes Fernandes has shown, albeit briefly since returning to the club, of his genuine quality, Everton desperately seek more players of that style.

The greatest side's in the world attack with pace and power. Attack as much as possible, rarely sit back and sneak a goal when the opportunity arises. The prospect of an Everton side with such attacking style would be one that all of us would relish, surely?

Admittedly, Everton are a typical "English" side, adopting an unsophisticated approach. Flair simply must be added to the ranks, if not, we can settle for a mid table predicament. We must have ambition, we must be adventuresome.

Arshavin, immensely impressive at Goodison Park when the Toffees faced Zenit in the UEFA Cup group stage, has made no secret of the fact that he would welcome a move to the Premier League, what more does David Moyes need to know? Strength in depth is determinative when the season reaches a climax, it really can make or break a season. Our complete lack of depth is evident, embarrassing if you ask me.

Why do I get the sense if we do not act swiftly, we will undoubtedly live to regret the fact another potentially world class player has slipped through our net? Was the January transfer window yet another missed opportunity?

Watching the Russian literally tear apart a wavering Bayer Leverkusen defence was a sheer joy to the eyes, the boy has class, and in abundance at that.

Maybe I have a champagne taste when the unfortunate reality of the situation is we have a bog-standard beer budget. Should we "break the bank"? Considering the wide climate of investment within the Premier League, surely, somehow, someway, Arshavin can be obtained within our resources.

Forget Kallstrom, please don't ponder Nolan and whilst you're there, forget the somewhat overrated David Bentley, Arshavin is the man not only to dramatically improve the Everton squad but to bridge the perceptible gap between ourselves and the "Top 3". Fortune favours the brave, go for it Everton, we will not be dissatisfied.

Its funny that every summer is a big summer in terms of signings! From all reports he sounds good and what i have seen of him looks like a very accomplashed creative player. His club however are one of the richest in Europe, backed i beleive by an oil billionaire, keeping in mind he is the russian captain i think it will be difficult to negotiate his release. You may say he might want to test himself in the prem, but for that privalage with the above in mind it migght be an expensive purchase! It would be different if he was the final peiice of the jigsaw but to blow in and around 15 mill on him wouldnt be in our best intrests.

When it comes to tranfers, its easy identfying good players, for instance i would love to see messi at goodison but its the context and circumstances of any move that have to be analysed. For me i think he may be a little out of our reach when you think of the few voids we may need to fill in the summer. Hopefully i am wrong!

spelling mistake, see me at end of lesson.

we all make mistakes sharpy but one like that could land you in the dock, i think you mean wrapped....or maybe you're saying bk should give him one up the chuffer to seal the deal.
 
Just watched the Bayern game all the way through for Arshavin.

Quiet for a lot of it, but his vision, his ball control and his running into space was still apparent. Then in the second half a few runs and passes from him opened up what is a pretty good Continental defence. Pure quality drifting around in a free role, and with a good workrate closing down (although can tackle about as well as Tommy Gravesen - that's not at all, in case we still have some addled fans of the bald fistpumper here).

The only problem with him is that he is another bloody midget and for that reason I don't think DM will buy him.

Also worth a look: the target-man centre forward Pogrebnyak and the captain and outstanding central midfield defender Tymoschuk (both tall).
