Spelling

MICHEL RECENDEZ Many Russian names Andrei or Andrey are spelled differenly. On two different pages this players name is spelled in different ways. I recommend that it be spelled with an i at the end. After a while if no one says different I will change it. Likthem

Actually, it was me who renamed the article to its current form. I did it because FC Zenit says it's "Andrey". [1] In addition, WP:RUS recommends "y". Conscious 21:19, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, although I am quite used to seeing it written as i and not y, I will not disagree with Wikipedia's standards. Thank you. Likthem
I've also seen "Andrei" at rsssf and uefa sites. Conscious 20:31, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

On the official Zenit St. Petersburg website his name is listed as Andrey. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Whiteknight666 (talkcontribs) 17:05, 22 June 2008 (UTC) As a compromise I listed both spellings[reply]

This article has been renamed

This article has been renamed from Andrey Arshavin to Andrei Arshavin as the result of a move request. See Talk:Vyacheslav Malafeev for an archive of the proposal. — Ash063 09:48, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Name of the team

Would be nice if people called my country's team right (The Netherlands)... We aren't simply named "Holland" you know.. ADB15 (talk) 21:25, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Looks to me you are simply holland and lost of russia. 77.248.185.98 (talk) 21:42, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Technically only 2 provinces of the lowlands make up Holland but even man.y dutch people call the country holland in england. Look at interviews with van Basten —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.65.102.49 (talk) 00:17, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I know that but our team is officially named the Netherlands and since this is WIKIPEDIA it has to be named like it really is.. just because we call it Holland for the ease of comfort doesn't mean the other should do it :P ADB15 (talk) 12:11, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also, their are inaccuracies in the information of the page. As of June 22, Andrey Arshavin has scored 67 goals in official play for ZenitWhiteknight666 (talk) 17:06, 22 June 2008 (UTC)WhiteKnight666[reply]

Andrei Arshavin Will wear the number 13 shirt for Arsenal Football Club. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.19.51.123 (talk) 22:02, 27 June 2008

Arsenal fc have had a €10million offer rejected, but are poised to make another approach of about 14million. Whiteknight666 (talk) 01:33, 28 June 2008 (UTC)WhiteKnight666 (UTC) on 20th of january Arsenal f.c of London,England smash there record tranfer fee and sign Arshaven[reply]

The deal looks to be off, Sky Sports News had a report sent to them from Zenit saying the deal was off that was at 17:30pm on 2nd Feb 09. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.107.174.93 (talk) 17:38, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Leaving in January?

Can you delete/undo these Arsenal rumors listed on his article? This is not the place for it! Let's not turn wikipedia into a cheap online tabloid! Rumor hunting are what the likes of goal.com are for. Until he has signed for someone, I see no reason to start burning your tires.. it's quite annoying seeing this kind of thing. i supposed temporarily it's alright but ask yourself, who in their right mind goes to wikipedia to get up to date football info?--Fly05 (talk) 09:31, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I read a couple of articles about Arshavin possibly leaving for Arsenal. – Michael (talk) 22:10, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have seen sources that seem to be reliable saying that Arsenal is trying to make this transfer happen. I am surprised why this information is not included in the article and would like to know why some editors remove it. BaldPark (talk) 03:36, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It'd be ridiculous to name every club that ever made a bid for Arshavin. I'm sure Ramos was confident in August when trying to sign him for Spurs. Same with Barcelona etc etc etc etc etc.............. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.45.49.142 (talk) 09:00, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am not aware of any reliably documented official offer other than Arsenal's. Are you? BaldPark (talk) 09:18, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, just google past offers. 203.45.49.142 (talk) 09:24, 16 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is entirely appropriate to have this kind of information in the article, other guidelines being followed, of course. BaldPark (talk) 21:03, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As I've said in my edit summary, Zenit's negotiations with Arsenal obviously deserve a mention somewhere in the article. Regardless of whether the deal itself goes through or not, it will still have a very big effect on his career. Arshavin has already said that he has no intention of playing for Zenit again, so the least that can happen is that Arshavin will buy out his contract after this season, either way, it is difficult to underestimate the impact these negotiations may have on his career. Just don't go into too much detail, at least not until the transfer window is closed in seven days. There's just way too much inaccurate information right now. BanRay 11:26, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Well-said! Thank you. 71.139.20.155 (talk) 22:55, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Such a deal will have an affect on his career only if it goes through. To suggest anything else is simply crystal ball gazing.--ClubOranjeTalk 10:22, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Arshavin moves to Arsenal!

  1. 23 is what he will be wearing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gary-spratt (talkcontribs) 04:12, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Arshavin moves to Arsenal! [2] Yoda1893 (talk) 20:34, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes More sources: [3]

Stop changing the article please.


How can I lock the article? Its getting kind of annoying.


Arshavin is already an Arsenal player so you could change it :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aspirina (talkcontribs) 21:05, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Andrei Arshavin has NOT YET joined Arsenal from Zenit St Petersburg. Arsenal are waiting for necessary paperwork to be signed by the Premier League. Please read these "sources" more clearly:

[4] states clearly: "The Gunners are now merely waiting on the Premier League to sign all the necessary paperwork for the deal to be made official."

[5] states clearly: "...although we are atill awaiting official confirmation from the clubs and player."

Please stop changing the article until both clubs and/or the player make an OFFICIAL announcement. Captain Alaric (talk) 21:17, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It is done. I mean when a baby is born it isnt born until the papers are signed for this birth cert? Please....It is done. Change it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.55.10.46 (talk) 22:53, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

To be fair, the Canadian Press (hardly the best source for football, but a source none the less) is reporting the deal as done and complete. [6] --99.224.245.159 (talk) 23:30, 2 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

While I understand a desire to "break the news" before official confirmation, over the length of the debacle, there has been no lack of conflicting news sources. Changing it before the deal is reported as done by completely reliable sources (Arsenal.com, mostly) would be irresponsible. As for the baby analogy, it seems a little off. This is unconfirmed information, not something we definitely know to be true. – moonty (talk) (contribs) 08:40, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's offical he moved

On the Russian chanell one it was announced today.

The Russian minister of sports already commented it.[7].

And here are the news from the most offical Russian sports site:

Arshavin before it was offical announced he will play under the 23 number if he moved: [8]

And here is the offical confirmation from Zenit: [9]

It's offical. MaIl1989 (talk) 12:29, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sport Express say the move has been finalized some 20 minutes ago, we'll need an official confirmation from either Zenit or Arsenal though. BanRay 16:56, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Confirmed by Arsenal now. Mattythewhite (talk) 16:58, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Arsenal have now confirmed on their website that he will wear the number 23 shirt.[1]
