Andrey Arshavin confesses to poor form

Andrey Arshavin has admitted that Arsenal supporters are right to criticise his current form.

The Russian's performances so far this season have been the source of much frustration for Gunners fans, having seen the forward score just one goal in his last 18 matches.

"[The fans] should expect more from me, of course," the 30-year-old told the club's official website. "They should expect some more tricks, goals and unbelievable passes.

"To be honest, I am still expecting more from me as well."

Arshavin joined Arsenal in 2009 from Zenit St Petersburg.
