Andrej Arshavin was the best player in Euro 2008 because he was the most two-footed player in Euro 2008.
He can shoot with both feet and pass with both feet and cross with both feet.
AND CHIP WITH BOTH FEET !
Last night at Anfield, Arshavin became the first visitor to score four goals since 1946 !
He scored two with his left foot and two with his right.
He is intelligent, brave and funny.
Asked by Sky’s Geoff Shreeves if the see-saw thriller was like a game of basketball, Arshavin grinned and said, “I can’t score 90 !”
Arshavin was as great as George Best last night. And George finished proper football at 27. He had half a career.
Best was an alcoholic whose manager, Matt Busby, was sentimental about his older players.
Busby let his team grow old around Best
Arsene Wenger is sentimental about his young Africans and young Frenchmen.
