Former Zenit St Petersburg and Arsenal forward Andrey Arshavin has commented on the view that winning the Premier League is more difficult than lifting the Champions League.

The Russian striker played for the London club from 2009 to 2013. His most memorable moment with Arsenal came when he scored all four goals in a 4-4 draw against Liverpool.

Arshavin has also shared his memories of Nicklas Bendtner, saying: “He turned out to be rather weak.”
