You've got to love mind games. Russia are in full flow ahead of the England match tomorrow night, with their skipper, Andrei Arshavin having the following to say about Paul Robinson:

“Robinson, putting it mildly, is not the strongest representative of his profession"

Call a spade, a spade, Andrei.

Alexei Smertin decided to hold back a little:

"To be fair, Robinson is not the best goalkeeper in England’s history."

To be fair, Alexei Smertin isn't that good either, but hey.

Can anyone imagine what a certain J. Lehmann might say ahead of Saturday?
