Maybe, Arshavin is stronger from a certain point of view but Henrik is a more useful team-mate,” Roman Berezovsky said in an interview with St. Petersburg’s branch of Moskovsky Komsomolets newspaper. Commenting on how Armenia managed to fix considerable progress recently, Berezovsky said, “It may sound like boasting, but our team is like Barcelona.
