Does Low have the power to stop him from playing for both club and country? Preferably forever? Because that would be awesome.

Arshavin is hilarious.

Yulia making Arshavin get a haircut - one shorter than usual - before leaving, so he can wait longer until his next cut, reminds me of what a mom would do before sending her freshman son off to college.



Thanks, Mom.

Between flying his stylist to London, his ridiculous hatred of women drivers, his fashion line, and pretty much all the pictures of him, I'm pretty sure Arshavin is my favorite premier league footballer now.
