Arsenal's Arshavin tells Yulia to button it

Arsenal ace Andrey Arshavin has revealed how he's made sure no extra pressure is placed on his shoulders this season.

Andrey's wife, Yulia, was in trouble earlier this year for claiming that English people were "too reserved", the country was "dull" and the food was sub-standard.

However, Andrey revealed: "I've prohibited her from complaining about life in England.

"Since then there have been no more criticisms."

Coming from a man who said he would ban all women from driving because they were too dangerous, it would be fair to assume Arshavin takes a traditional view of a woman's role in society..
