I mean, Wenger shouldn't make promises to sign "a big player" in January, and only be struggling to sign Arshavin. As if Arshavin will solve the problems that Arsenal are having.
What about trying to re-sign Vieria, which isn't out of the question. Or finding a DM or CB. Of course Arshavin will be great on Arsenal and provide more fire power in the absence of Fabregas, but ignoring defensive problems is a huge mistake, and could prove to be even more costly. Now, with only a few hours left, the deal is said to have collapsed. Although it could still possibly go through, will this cement a top 4 spot?!
