So what if Bendtner never saw Arshavin? 
Is he now a coach? The guy was probably in Antigua shagging some sexy mamacitas. 

Anelka: Drogba partnership could have saved Phil

Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka has suggested that he and Didier Drogba could have saved Luiz Felipe Scolari's job had the Brazilian played them in tandem.

The duo have not been given much of a chance to play together.

Scolari was sacked as Blues manager a week ago after a run of poor results and performances, with Anelka and Drogba fighting for a single striking role under the former Portugal boss.

Anelka scored a 15-minute hat-trick in Saturday's 3-1 FA Cup victory over Watford when the Ivorian was brought on alongside him and believes that had they been given the chance to shine, their goals could have turned the club's form around.

''Of course we can work as a partnership for Chelsea,'' Anelka told The Sun. ''I have said it before and so has Didier but Scolari never tried playing us together.

''It was me scoring this time, but it might be Didier next time. That's good for Chelsea.''

The Ivorian has been dogged by injury problems so far this season but when asked whether he could get back to his best, Drogba said: ''I hope so. When you are sidelined for four months like I was, and then you return and get injured again, it isn't easy.

''The important thing for me now is simply to be on the pitch. It is up to me to show that I deserve to be on the pitch. I hadn't lost my instincts, I just lacked matches.

''If you want to improve your condition, it is better to be on the pitch. Training is all well and good but playing for 90 minutes is better.''

Scolari tended to operate with a lone striker but Drogba admits the pressure is now on him and Nicolas Anelka to prove they can work as an attacking partnership.

''There is something between us,'' Drogba told French sports newspaper L'Equipe. ''We are both quite intelligent players who know how to play together and create spaces for one another.

''It is a long time since he scored and then he scores three, three real striker's goals. I hope that will provide him with a boost, because the team needs him.''.

Are u an idiot??I was only correcting Debosky that you were RIGHT and u have the gall to call me a rat?

It seems the concept of English Language is too a big a task for you to grab.

''I should start every game'', claims Bendtner
Arsenal's Nicklas Bendtner believes that he should be considered the club's top striker and also said that he had not watched new signing Andrei Arshavin in action before he arrived at the Emirates Stadium.

The Dane wants more playing time.

The Dane is likely to play a prominent role for Arsene Wenger's team over the coming weeks after Emmanuel Adebayor was ruled out with a hamstring injury, but has, once again, added to his reputation as an egotist.

Even without Adebayor, Robin van Persie and Arshavin would appear to be ahead of him in the Gunners' pecking order, with the returning Eduardo and Theo Walcott also staking claims for inclusion.

However, despite a meagre return of just three goals in 18 games this season, Bendtner insists he should be considered the north Londoners' best frontman.

''I'm very sorry to see Adebayor injured as we need him fit and to be playing in the league,'' he told the Daily Mirror. ''But it does not really matter to me who is fit and available.

''I should start every game, I should be playing every minute of every match and always be in the team.''

His place is under threat from Russian striker Arshavin, who became one of the hottest properties in football after his brilliant performances at last summer's European Championships with Russia.

His signing earlier this month, for around £16m, was seen as a major coup for Wenger and the Gunners hierarchy, but Bendtner admits he had no idea what all the fuss was about.

''I've never seen Arshavin. I did not watch Euro 2008,'' he said. ''I've no idea what sort of player he is.''
