I don’t think Hleb brought anything to this side except a few performances but to say that Pires left a void, then you’re spot on and Arshavin really does loo like the player to fill that void.

Also, yes we do need cover and we need some in defense, at least one more quality, dependable CB to say the least.

Things look good at present standpoint but once should not count their chickens before they hatch. We have to take it one game at a time.

To say Arshavin is a mixture of Pires and Bergkamp is praise of the highest order. Time will tell whether he makes even half the impact those two legends made. If you remember it took Pires a whole season to get used to the Prem and we know what he did after that..The difference though is Arshavin should put in sterling performances consistently and do this quicker since he is at the very peak of his game at the right age.

i think wenger had always been building a new younger side, but to answer the invisible part of that question is gradual. he young players are maturing, some more than others, some less than others.

fyi. arshavin was god-like me thinks.
