Andrey, how can one talk to you personally?
Arshavin: Hi.
Hi Andrey! Please tell me, in your opinion, what is the most important thing for a footballer these days?
Arshavin: I think the most important thing is a head, not only for a footballer but for any person.
Andrey, do you need apples? We’ve harvested a lot of them this year!
My friends also have a lot of apples and they don’t take mine. But they are so tasty and sweet, especially “white juice”. It is a pity that they’ll go bad...
Arshavin: I love apples, but on the other hand, I think there are many other deserving people who will accept your apples.
Andrey, would you like to take part in some TV show? (For example “Dancing on Ice”)?
Arshavin: If I took part in this show, it should be renamed “A Cow on Ice".
Can A.A. jump out of my birthday cake?
Arshavin: It’s unlikely; I'm a football player, not a minstrel or a clown.
I’ve already written you three letters but they haven’t been delivered...Well ... My name is Olga, I’m 13 years old. I go out for football and I’m your biggest fan..... Well, my dad does not allow me to play football but I want to…- Andrey, tell me what to do?
Arshavin: Listen to your Dad.

Q:
Hi Andrey! I just wanted to ask, if your daughter decided that her dream was to play professional football, would you encourage/support her in this?
AA:
I hope it will never happen. 0 -
Hello, Andrey! I am 12 years old. I'm your fan and I wear a jersey with your name on it. Please tell me how to learn to play football, without straining myself. I do not like physical exertion.
Arshavin: It’ll be difficult for you.
Hi, Andrey! For many people it’s difficult to get up in the morning. And what about you? Do you get up right away or not? For example: An alarm clock rings. What do you do? Just get up or lie for a moment or two?
Arshavin: When this vile little thing begins to ring in the morning, I get angry, turn it off and give myself one more minute.
Hi, Andrey. I have a friend, her name is Tamara Komarova. She insists that she is a friend of yours. Do you know this girl or she's just lying to look more interesting?
Arshavin: No, I do not know her. You friend is bluffing
))
Andrey, tell me please, what feelings did you experience before the game against Juventus when you met the eye of such a footballer as Alessandro Del Piero?
Arshavin: I thought: Who was this guy shaking my hand before the game, I've already seen him somewhere ^)
Hello Andrey, I actually have the same question as one of your fans. Well, I like football and I would love to play, but I don’t have this opportunity as I live in Kurganskaya oblast, and there is no women's football here. What would you advise?
Arshavin: Join dressmaking courses))))
Hello Andrey! I'm 13 years old and I fell in love with football this summer and decided to join the team...... if only I could persuade my mother ...... She says that football is not for women, that it will make my calves the sizes of two balls, and in general it will make me the size of a wardrobe............ but I think it’s all nonsense! Could you tell me what are the advantages of playing football?
Arshavin: Ask your mom, it seems she knows what she’s talking about))
Hi, my name is Nastya. I’m almost 14 years old, I like you very, very much, because you are very, very handsome and play football like no one else. I think of you all the time, write poems about you and love you very very much! What should I do?
Arshavin: Homework!
Hi, Andrey! I’ve got a question for you: I’ve seen TV reports about speed eating contests (for example, in Germany they eat hot dogs and wash them down with beer). Would you dare to speed-eat a lot of chocolate cakes?
Sincerely, Lena
Arshavin: I can afford to buy a lot of chocolate cakes and eat them calmly, without any fuss and contests at home
Do you like to ride? How about dragging a sledge?
Arshavin: It’s better to have a ride, of course
Hi, Andrey!
You will probably be able to help a person who didn’t think much about football before Euro 2008. I’m really interested: How does UEFA decide how many clubs and from what countries will participate in the Champions League, and how many will take part in the UEFA Cup? And another question: What is the principle of awarding points to countries in the FIFA rankings?
Arshavin: I think that Internet has all the answers to these questions.
HELLO ANDREY! It’s the second time I write to you. I want to know how I can see you.
Arshavin: With your eyes
Hi Andrey, I'm in 8th grade and our teacher forbids us to play football with boys, and if we start playing he makes fun of us and mocks the guys. Has it ever happened to you or we just have a jerk of a teacher?
P.S.: Thanks in advance for your reply (Rimma)
Arshavin: No, it has never happened to me. We were allowed to play football with boys
Andrey! Who is your favorite football player? Mine - Andrey Arshavin.
Arshavin: And mine too)))
How many goals will Andrey Arshavin score at Arsenal, if he is given 150 assists? I'll answer myself: 3 times more!
Arshavin: The concept of an assist implies that one scores after this pass. Therefore, I’ll answer 150, although, well, I’ll be more modest - 148, once or twice I’ll hit the bar.
Andrey, how does it feel to score a goal?
Arshavin: Well, let’s say, it’s like having an ice-crea0 -
After he helped Russia's successful bid I went to his site and it turns out he has a new batch of questions up from late November. Some gems in there as usual...1. From forvard23
Hello Andrey! Are you going to prolong your contract with Arsenal when it expires? And do you have friends in Arsenal?
AA: One should think in advance about such things. As a Russian proverb has it: "Prepare your sledge in the summer time» I’m on good terms with everybody in Arsenal.
2. From Queen
What do you think about astrology?
AA : I consider it a science.

AA: England. Spain. Hard to say, not only away games turn out to be difficult.
4. From Grishazltykh
Hi! I definitely like your game, Andrey! But tell me who you are??
AA.: A person.
5. From Doctorwolf
Hello Andrey. Tell me, what kind of emotions did you feel at your very first Arsenal training? Was it hard – a new team, new people, a new country?
AA: I couldn’t believe that I joined Arsenal. It was very cold, I hadn’t been training for 10 days, it was hard. The training session was very long and intensive. I felt very tired afterwards.

8. From IBRAHIMOVIX10
Arsene Wenger sets much store on the young players. But who can you personally point out in the squad?

9. From ponedelkow
Hello, Andrey.Thanks for your beautiful football, tell me how to buy a jersey with your number. Don’t leave the left flank – it’s yours.
AA: There is information about this on the site. I’ll be shifting a bit sometimes, okay?
10. From Sergeich
Hi Andrey! Can you speak English? Thank you in advance.
AA: I live in England. So I have to communicate in English. Every day I try to memorize some new words and expressions. I also take lessons. I should work on my pronunciation. For example, Artyom, as some of my friends say, has already got a London accent. Julia spends a lot of time studying the language. She studied German at school and at the University, so she had to start from the very beginning here.
11. From SvetlanaQi
Hi, Andrey))) I have a question: Is it true that you play better in winter time than in summer? Do you like winter --- when the white, white snow is falling down?
Thank you very much! Good luck)))
AA: I didn’t usually play in winter time before I came to England. I like it when the soft, gentle snow is falling down and crunches under the feet, and when it’s no more than -5 degrees outside.

Hello, Andrey. Tell me please, whether you are going to stay abroad? Do you find today's Russia interesting? Do you have any native values, or it’s all the same to you? Thank you.
AA: I don’t see myself living anywhere abroad after my career is over. It’s hard for me to adjust to the life outside my country. Russia is my native country, so I follow the Russian news every day. I’m interested in everything that happens at home.

AA: Just believe in it.
16. From McRussian
Andrey, I once asked you whether you are planning to visit the country of the kilt-clad men)). By the way, thanks for your reply! Here is what I want to ask you this time: I do running (on an amateur level)). You, as I understand, also make daily runs. Tell me how much do you run on an average day? And one more ...

Regards, Andrey
AA: I jog 3 km a day before training.

20. From Moonray
Andrey, don’t tuck your T-shirt in, before coming out on the pitch? It suits you better)))))
AA.: Even in my school, I was taught to be neat when coming out on the pitch. Back then you could earn a yellow card for a T-shirt hanging over your shorts.

Hello Andrey! 1) Do you like the English language? 2) Are you proud that you are Russian? 3) Please name one of your favorite music bands or singers?

23. From Azverin
Andrey, hello from the Gunner! Tomorrow, September 11, my girlfriend flies back here, I haven’t seen her for 2 months and her birthday is on Sept. 14. I’ll be meeting her at the Vnukovo airport at the time of the game against Bolton. It’ll be a great present for her if you could write on your T-shirt "He is ready for everything for you, Nastia! " If you score, show it to the viewers! We are 23 years old and I believe in miracles. Of course, this is unrealistic, but I’ll be grateful to you for the rest of my life.
AA: If I had written this, Julia would not have understood.

The guy is a genius!1. From DavidBeckham
Hello Andrey. I’d like to ask you an obvious question that you’ve probably heard more than once before. Do you know a football player (who plays football now or played it in the past), who plays (played) football just like you, or a footballer you want to play like? I personally play in David Beckham’s style, I am not his idol, although I like the way he plays. He can kick the ball diagonally 40-80 meters away right at his teammate’s feet, though of course it is not everything he can do. Thanks in advance for your reply! Good luck in the English championship!
Arshavin: You are not Beckham’s idol?
2. From Beka
Hello Andrey! Is it true that after the match against Hull City, Fabregas spat in the Hull City coach assistant’s face?

3. From vikafly7
Do you like to star in commercials?
Arshavin: It’s interesting.
4. From 19garik78
Hello Andrey. My name is Garik. I want to ask you something. I date a girl who is your big fan and admires you very much. She said she’d agree to marry me if I got her a photo, a poster or something like this with your autograph. If it’s not too difficult for you, could you please send me something? I’d be grateful for the rest of my life. Thank you in advance. My address, Stavropol region, Mineralnye Vody Lermontova str., 23.
Arshavin: Are you sure you won’t regret it?
5. From Madinka
Hi Andrey, why don’t you answer me? That’s OK, I hope you at least read my letters... here is a question: You used to put number 10 near your signature. Do you put 23 now?
Arshavin: Yes.
6. From NikeMercurial
Hello! What shall I do to stop worrying when I come out on the pitch? When I play I often get confused ... I beg you - give me advice !!! You'll help me a lot, thanks in advance and good luck to you.
Arshavin: Stop worrying
7. From desjatij
Andrey, since you became a famous player, your life has certainly changed. Tell me, does it bore you to give interviews and answer numerous questions on your site? I’m sure that when you go out for a walk in Saint Petersburg or any other city, people recognize you and say “It is THE Arshavin” . Do you like it that people recognize you, you are talked about, you became an idol for many teenagers or you miss the times when you were inconspicuous among others?
Arshavin: I like it that I’m less recognized on the streets of London than at home.
8. From Svetaslavna
Hello, how much does it cost to support your web-site? Thank you.
Arshavin: We are self-sufficient.
