Andrei Arshavin conducts greatest Q&A ever, part XI

The World Cup rages on, but somewhere on a jetski in the Maldives, the madness of Andrei/ey Arshavin and the loonies that ask him questions on his official website continue to quietly go about their eccentric business. So drown out the vuvuzela buzz and join us as we once again delve into the strange wonders of Arshavin.

Andrey, what is your favorite movie? What genre do you prefer? For example: fiction, drama, horror? Please answer my question! This is the third time I write! Thanks!
Arshavin
: Among the abovementioned three genres I prefer drama.

Thank the heavens! After three trying attempts to learn Arshavin's favorite film genre, kotenochek finally gets an answer. Drama. But that's only out of the three mentioned. Kotenochek will have to write three more times to find out what Andrei prefers out of documentary, comedy, or adult.

Hello, Andrey! And my questions are: It is interesting to know: Do you consider yourself a romantic? Is there any place in your life for romance? And a little, perhaps, indiscreet question: Could you kneel before a woman you love and ask for forgiveness? I’ll be very glad if you answer! I sincerely wish all the best to you and your family. Tatiana.
PS: Thank you very much for answering my previous question!
Arshavin
: Romance is not alien to me. But, in this regard, I would call myself a lazybones. I think that I could.

Oh, Andrey and his lazybones romance. As for the unanswered question of whether he could kneel and ask for forgiveness -- he has another method of doing this.

Hi Andrey, where do you prefer to sit in the movies? What kind of movies do you like: comedy, drama, horror?
Arshavin
: I like historical films, comedies. If possible, I like to watch movies from all sorts of couches.

Whoa whoa whoa, kotenochek. Stop writing those next three movie genre questions -- Nadya2551 already beat you to it. And now we see Andrey likes comedies more than dramas (which we already know he likes more than fiction and horror), as well as historical films (which weren't even listed as options!!). Oh, and Andrey will totally lug a couch into a movie theater.

Hello :) It’s my first time on the site. And I’m very interested why your cheeks turn bright red during the game? P.S.: It suits you so much! :)
Thank you in advance for paying attention to my question. Lada. Ramenskoye.
Arshavin
: Again about the cheeks :). It’s my physiology. Someone is pale, I’m ruddy :)

Andrei has had enough :) with your questions :) about his cheeks! :)

By plane or by boat? To fly or to swim?)
Arshavin
: I'd love to have a ride or two on the steamboat again. To fly or to swim? Definitely not to crawl! I choose the fastest way.

Is that some kind of riddle, olenka2310? You're not setting him up for some kind of transportation-themed Saw scenario, are you? He's already indicated that he doesn't like horror movies.

Andrey! Who is your favorite football player? Mine - Andrey Arshavin.
Arshavin
: And mine too ;))))

;))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

12. From Polina95
Andrey, I have your name carved on my arm with a knife! Did I do it for nothing or not? What do you think? And this is not a joke; I spent the whole day carving it!
Arshavin
: I do not understand it. Actually, I do not even like when people make tattoos. If it is not a joke, it's sad. There are many other ways to express your sympathy to me.

Holy crap! What?! Here we were having all kinds of fun with movie genres and excessive emoticons then Polina95 comes in with Andrey's name carved into his/her arm WITH A KNIFE. And it somehow took an entire day to do! That's...wow. Run, Andrey. Run while you can. But seriously, how could that take an entire day to do? Did Polina95 pass out half way through or something?

13. From Shavochka
Hello !!!!!!!!!!! You used to say that Barcelona was your dream, but in an interview to Arsenal you said that you wanted to move to this club in particular. What should I think?
Arshavin
: As a child I supported Barcelona, I do not deny that. Actually I continue to root for “Barca” in the Spanish Championship. As for the English Championship, I’ve always liked Arsenal, so when I had an opportunity to join this club, I happily agreed. So I’ve never seen myself as a player of any other English club. Again, I am a Gunner, and I am satisfied with everything.

Unless Barca came calling.

Ugh, I'm still not over Polina95. I don't think I will ever recover from that one.

Hello Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe.- Albert Einstein Do you agree?
Arshavin
: As for the infinity of the universe, two satellites (Russian and American) have recently collided in space. It seemed almost impossible in the infinite universe, but still it happened. Human stupidity - it really exists. Besides, Einstein believed in it and one should listen to the opinion of wise people.

They should also refrain from carving footballers' names into their arm with a knife.

3. From vikafly7
Andrey, do you respect models who advertise clothes?
Arshavin
: I respect any work. Being a model is not easy, especially a good model.

Especially a good model who works for Nike.

5. 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.

Andrei Arshavin will not be done in by your trick questions!

9. From marinel
You have such a wonderful wife. Not every woman is able to bear a footballer husband. Does she inspire you when she’s at the stands?
Arshavin
: I don’t think about this during the game.

Hahaha Andrei could have easily said yes just be sweet, but he didn't. He didn't.

10. From egor5
Andrey, how does it feel to score a goal?
Arshavin
: Well, let’s say, it’s like having an ice-cream.

Then I guess Emile Heskey must be lactose intolerant. ZING!

12. From Timur47
Andrey, good evening! I’ve read somewhere that you used to live on Demiana Bednogo Street. If so, when was it? I'm just interested because I live there))) Best wishes, good luck!
Arshavin
: My grandmother lives there. So you could see me in this district. On July 28 we, together with Pepsi decided to open a mini-football pitch in the neighborhood, where my grandmother still lives. Kind of funny, so many years have passed ... By the way; she often comes to visit me in London.
There are pictures of her in the “off-side” section of this site.

Don't tell them that, Andrei! For the love of God and the safety of your grandmother, don't tell them where she lives! Lock the door, Grandma Arshavin! Lock the door now!

If there is nothing left but to do a bad thing, it's no longer an offence, it’s fate. You do what you have to do.
Arshavin
: So it is not an offence, it’s fate. While there is always a choice: to do a bad thing or to act differently.

Run! Run, Andrei! Hide the knives and run!
