Mid-February would be a good guess. As for Arshavin to Arsenal being part of the update, don't hold your breath...

Not sure how the ALS stuff will affect it, but I would assume that you'll have to download the update through the in-game menu or save the squad file after starting an online match...

good point...

They've had over a month to prepare for AA joining the gunners, I would be majorly disappointed if they left him out of the update. How hard can it be? I'm sure he has a clone somewhere in the game and it shouldn't take over a month to figure out one guy's stats.

zak - his point was that the AA deal did not seem likely at the time, not that EA would elave him off... AA is on russia's interantional team in the game. should be simple... if the deal actually goes through.

Exactly. Now the FA is saying that it might be 2-3 days before they make a decision and it's a 50/50. Check out the Arsenal thread in the main soccer forum if you want the details...

We might be getting it Friday.

"Good news for all players in FIFA 09. The patch taking into account the transfers made during the winter mercato will be online starting this Friday, February 6, therefore. Ideally, the eleven-type of each team will also be awarded to to take into account these new transfers, and Brandao Wiltord in Marseilles, through Arshavin to Arsenal and the reinforcement of the two French international at Real, and Faubert Lassana Diarra. A good way to revive the season and playing online."

Not sure how reliable this is or if it applies to everyone, but I thought I'd pass it along.
