Who needs the World Cup when you are...Arshavin

Andrey Arshavin is not at the World Cup because Russia lost to Slovenia in their play-off fixture. Players apparently channeled the spirit of Dionysus during qualification. Carrying on like true Chekhovian rascals they apparently exuded a sense of superiority, with Arshavin reported to have told random employees: "'I am – Arshavin".

You may wonder then what our favorite dimunitive Russian has been doing during his summer not in South Africa. The answer is, of course, slightly confusing. Hipster Gooner brings you the highlights of Andrey's summer (so far). For more snapshots visit Arshavin's fantastic website.
