Alphabet of Andrei Arshavin to “Soviet Sport”, Vadim Yevseyev forecasts for the derby in “Sport-Express” and the thoughts of Andreas Wolf of Russia in the “Sports day after day.” Interested? Read the press review on the Down-the-line.com …

“Soviet Sport”, on the site after reading Andrei Arshavin stuff about with nothing attached to the captain of our team letters of the alphabet, made graphic illustration for each word.

WATERMELONS

Homeland watermelon, apparently, a favorite delicacy Andrew is, if someone did not know South Africa, which hosted the last World Cup. Andrei Arshavin in the tournament went. But, unfortunately, just as Ambassador to Russia's bid for 2018 World Cup, which was represented in Johannesburg.

BULL

With the current bull

Andrew and his wife Julia met recently at the First Channel television show “Big Race”. Wife of footballer volunteered to participate in one of the toughest competitions.

– Its hanging from the ceiling, and will run down a bull. God forbid, something happens. I can not help her – worried in an interview with Andrew the First Channel.

But his worries were in vain. Julia did not need help.

THIEF

Rob Arshavin goalkeepers can, like no other. Recall, after scoring against “Loco” in Super Bowl 2008. Ivan threw the ball Levenets ourselves to enter into the game, both because of his back and ran out Andrew kicked the ball into the goal. A similar trick he did not so long ago, and with the goalkeeper, “Swansea” Michel Worm – the goal brought the “Gunners” three points.

GNOME

Fabulous dwarves from the German and Scandinavian folklore, bearded, live underground and are renowned for the wealth and craftsmanship. And although some jokingly referred to as a dwarf Arshavin for his short stature (172 cm), we can safely say that this is not true. Andrew lives in London, though the wealth and skill he has in abundance.

HOUSE

House for Arshavin – this is Peter. And at home, as you know, much better than a visit.

– Better for me, Peter London – Andrew admits on its website. – Not enough family and friends. I was born in Leningrad, and here my children were born, here is my home, my dad is buried there. This is my home. She did not choose and do not betray.

<...>

ICE

One popular roller on the Internet can be concluded that the favorite brand of whiskey Andrew – “Chivas.” This drink can be consumed in its pure form, but experts recommend adding a slice or two of ice at the discretion of.

MORE

While most players prefer to spend their vacation on the beach, or at least the Mediterranean Sea, Andrei Arshavin in his last vacation was swimming in the Caspian. He and his wife spent four days in Baku and simply could not try out the local beach.

FNL

Andrew certainly recalls with a shudder last final League Cup against the “Birmingham”. Not only that the “Gunners” left holding the bag and missed the opportunity to take first trophy in six years, so more and Arshavin was on the nose. In the most literal sense. Defender “Birmingham” struck him with his elbow in the face, and Andrew went nose is bleeding. Arshavin was able to continue the game, when the doctors stopped the bleeding.

GLASSES

Unfortunately, Andrew's affirmative action in the attack in the championship brought “Arsenal” is a bit of points. Specifically, all three. Ball into the goal, “Swansea” (1:0) is still only for the midfielder in the Premier League, and assists, he also did not differ.

Patriot

Although most of the year Andrew holds back in London, he was always the soul of Russia.

– I know people who are dreaming to have a decent job in England and settle down here. It all depends on the mentality of man, to each his own. For me in the future would be ideal to live in St. Petersburg, and from time to time to visit London.

<...>

CHICKEN

– Andrew himself like a chicken – yes small deletion, – the Lahter. – If you compare it with the eagles, as Jan Koller, Andrew can be called a chick. As, however, and Aguero or Silva.

TURTLE

– Many kindergartens have existed before “living places”, which was inhabited by turtles – recalls Lahter. – Children have almost no waste. That's Arshavin in childhood certainly had a weakness for turtles.

PIKE

Pike, as well as fishing in general, Andrew uninteresting. “According to a fishing trip with a quick Anyukovu” – tells half the visitors of your site.

TIRE

Now on car tires Arshavin will fall to a large load than before. Andrew passed the exam on British law, as he himself admitted in his Twitter. True, it was just him on his second attempt.

EXCAVATOR

Average price of the excavator is from 3.5 to 5.5 million rubles. Arshavin's award for his victory over Slovakia (according to the “Soviet Sport”, a player is 30 000 euro = 1,3 million) for the purchase of the excavator still not be enough. But the match against Andorra looked ten thousand students who bought tickets courtesy of Andrew.

EULA

– Andrew's wife name is Julia, that in general, similar to the word “whirligig” – says Lahter. – While at home, he calls it quite differently. How exactly, I can not say.

YAMALO-NENETS COUNTY

– He came to us if ever Arshavin? Who's this? Footballer? I do not know this – taken aback girl in the department of internal policy of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District. – I football in general is not very fond of, like, and most of the locals.

<...>

About Vadim Yevseyev already very long ago there was no news, so that the interview in the latest issue, “SE” very pleased. Vadim is alive and well – playing football. And predicts victory “Locomotive” in the derby.

– Russian Cup for sure?

– More or less. It all depends on your own schedule of matches. If there is free time, I go to a nearby pub and watch the game on the big screen.

– With beer fun?

– It is my least concern. Just to show only Belarus and its English championships. Russia there some reason not to honor.

– What was the last meeting to see?

– European Cup, “Locomotive” – ​​”Anderlecht” and CSKA – “Trabzonspor”.

– The defeat of the railway from the Belgians was very angry?

– It was annoying that the “Anderlecht”, with only a few moments, both implemented. A “locomotive” their squandered, though chances to score, he had a little more. Well, the judge still nachudil.

– Former teammates will take revenge in the return leg in Brussels?

– No matter how everything happened, I'm sure they will come out of the group. Team Kouseyru now on the move.

– The current “Locomotive” at least somewhat similar to the one for which you had a chance to speak?

– This is a completely different team. We present a very different playing style, a selection of artists. And then, in Seminsky “Locomotive” was not such a number of foreign players. But with the club's coach, it seems, they guessed. Portuguese knows what he wants from the players, and they believe him. This is a great thing.

– With someone of the guys communicate?

– With two Dmitry – Sychev and Loskova. Still, so much time together football bread eaten. This can not be forgotten.

– What comes to mind from the associated with “Spartacus”?

– The very beginning – 1996: The first match in the Champions League with “Nantes” in the spring, the first championship gold under the leadership of George Yartseva fall in St. Petersburg, where we won gold match “Alan”. I was then only twenty-knocked.

– How do you present “Spartacus”?

– It seems to be on a swing – up and down. He does not have his face: a match may be issued with a bang, next – to fail. Karpin himself in another football game. And now it is trying to find. Maybe because this process is difficult and is that the perpetrators have not Valery G. those. But he is stubborn – dozhmet.

– With someone of the current composition of the Spartak know?

– With Sergei Bryzgalov and Emin Makhmudov: I am with them in the “Saturn” played. Ibid and Artem Rebrov was, now of “Shinnik” in “Spartacus” has passed. While heavily in the boys make their way. But it may still turn out all.

– Which of the games of “Spartacus” with the “locomotive” comes to mind more than others?

– One that was conducted in the spring of 2000 when I debuted in the railroad. The meeting stood out hot. First, the judge removed from the bench Semin, and at the end of the game and me: I Penalty for fouls in Titov. But Tikhonov's penalty could not beat Nigmatullin.

– C Semin relations support?

– Unfortunately, does not work. But for his Kiev “Dynamo” watch. I recently was glad that Pavlovich in the first place in the championship left. Coach it from God. Still it was interesting to work muslin. But it strangely removed.

– Your current team led Sergey Gurenko, with whom you spent the best years in the “Locomotive”. It has played a role in the decision to move to Belarus?

– Of course. He invited me to Zhodino. But in our relationship with Sergei Vitalyevich purely professional, and I demand to be the same as with all the other guys.

– What are the challenges faced, “Torpedo”?

– Create a team that next season would fall in the top three in the country.

– What is the level of the Belarusian championship?

– It roughly corresponds to the first Russian battalion. But Bate, I think, would be lost and not in the Premier League.

– Match “Spartacus” with the “locomotive” will be able to see?

– We have in this day game Salihorsk “Miner”, but the second time I hope to have time.

– Who put in Saturday's match at Luzhniki stadium?

– On the “Locomotive”. Maybe, just Sychev with Loskova and score …

<...>

A “Sports day after day,” went so far as remembered, Andreas Wolf, and Andrei Volkov – Defender “Bremen”, who were eager to present a passport at the time of the RF Hiddink, and which is instantly forgotten when Guus left for Turkey.

– Andreas, you spent many years in the “Nuremberg.” Why then decided to leave?

– To negotiate a contract extension was not possible, I realized that it was time to change the situation, and began searching for a new club. I am glad that I got a call from the “Bremen” and that it was possible to conclude a contract with such a famous and popular club.

– In the press there were reports of interest to you from a number of Russian clubs …

– Yes it's true. I did not mind to go play in Russia, took place even a few conversations with a very good clubs. But this time I got that same offer from Bremen. Such clubs are interested in you often, and the opportunity to play their part do not give up.

– But many felt that in Bremen in the presence of such strong central defenders as Per Mertezaker, Naldo, Sebastian Prödl you place prepared on the bench and you take only the substitution of an injured …

– Competition is really strong, but she does not scare me. Behind them all the same great experience games in the Bundesliga, I knew that much I can, and I was sure that I will play. So, basically, what happened. Partners are changing, and I play all the time. Before leaving the “Arsenal” Mertezakera I played together with him, then – with Proposition, now – with Naldo. I'm good at it in conjunction with each of them, and I am sure this will continue.

– Your first time in his career, changed the club. It was difficult to adapt to the new team?

– In general, no. The guys I was well received. Still, all my ability to know and had no problems. Is that seriously was the first time without his family, remained in Nuremberg, while we were looking for accommodation in Bremen.

– For fans of “Nuremberg” is unusual to see you in a green T-shirt “Bremen”, because for them the green is the color of the historic rivals.

– For fans of my departure was an unpleasant surprise. I myself used to it. Still, I held a “Nuremberg” 14 years from the junior teams and imbued with the spirit of this club. I was uneasy after so many years to leave him. Yes, and Nuremberg for me was the home town where my relatives were there, my house, and I will definitely be back there. But so it formed a football career that I am today – a player, “Bremen”. All the same color – it's only color, and in football, sometimes they change.

– What is the difference between the “Bremen” and “Nuremberg”?

– “Bremen” big club. Here, quite different tasks. If the “Nuremberg” in front of me only once won the Cup and played in European competition, then the “Bremen” continuous task to be one of the best in the country. That's a problem this season, at least – be in the top six, but it is best to fight for the title if not, then for the medals. So far this season we have a group of leaders, and I hope that will cope with this problem.

– The difference in the style of the game also felt?

– Of course. At Nuremberg, we often played on defense, had a lot of games without the ball. Here, football is more attacking, more than combinational. This is a new experience for me, has a lot to learn, but it's good to have the opportunity to grow as a footballer. And that was another reason why I agreed to this change.

– So to move to Russia, you can forget?

– On the contrary, I would very much like in the future to play there. A year or two I'll play in Bremen, and then … Who knows, maybe more, and play in Russia. After all, I still, though a German, but Russian German (laughs). I say in Russian, interested in life in this country and would, if possible, get a Russian passport. Especially since they say that in my case it's not hard. And then you never know, maybe of use to the Russian team? (Laughs)

– Watch for our football? There are a favorite club?

– Watch, and in recent years more and more. While in “Spartacus” was Ivan Saenko, with whom we played a lot in Germany, watching him play. Now more for those whom I know from Germany – Kevin Kuranyi, Andrei Voronin, Zvezdanom Misimović. The other day saw the match, “Zenith” with “Miner”, and I really like the game of “Zenith”. I know that this is one of the best clubs in Russia. A lot of talk now about “Anji”. In general, Russian football is on the rise, and play in a league with Eto'o, roberto carlos and Kuranyi would be very interesting.
