Better late than never.

It was one of them moments on transfer deadline day where you thought, I just can't see an agreement coming forth on the last day when they have had four weeks to do this. As ever Arsenal produced a suprise when they announced that Andrey Arshavin was finally a Gooner'. Wearing the number 23 shirt and costing £15 million I just can't see this boy being anywhere near a waste of money. Some of his goals have displayed exactly what Arsenal are missing, a "go for it" mentality.

I have screamed myself into a headache so many times watching Arsenal trying to walk the ball into the back of the net and refusing to adopt a more chance taking approach of hitting the bloody thing.

I will never forget the Cesc Fabregas goal against AC Milan because it was on of them games where they never looked like scoring unless one of the players were willing to make something happen.

Anyway back to the new boy. The Russian seems to have pace and strength in abundance, which Arsenal fans and players will appreciate. I just have the weakest posible trace of doubt that he will fit into the Arsenal style of play straight away.

However I sincerely hope that is put to bed this weekend against none other than Spurs'. It would get him some serious brownie points if he were to produce or assist some goals against their north London rivals.

Lets just hope that the Gunners can add to Harry's problems and show there is only one real team in north London.
