Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger admits he has been left disappointed by comments from Andrey Arshavin revealing the Russian's admiration for Barcelona ufffd and maintains all of his players should respect their own club.
The 28-year-old ufffd signed from Zenit St Petersburg during January last year ufffd is currently battling to be fit due to a calf problem, and may not make the trip to Blackburn on Monday night.
Earlier this week, though, the Russian playmaker talked up Barcelona, who knocked Arsenal out of the Champions League, and claimed playing for the Spanish giants at some stage would be "would be the peak of my career."
It is not the first time such quotes attributed to Arshavin have hit the headlines.
Wenger said: "Yes, I am very disappointed because he shows a completely different attitude," said Wenger.
"He wants to extend his contract with us. He looks to be very happy here, so you should ask him where it comes from. We do not, of course, accept that. When you are at Arsenal, you are at Arsenal. When you are somewhere else, you are somewhere else."
