Diarra's Arsenal frustration
Arsenal's unsettled midfielder Lassana Diarra has admitted his frustration at failing to hold down a regular starting berth at Arsenal. Since joining Chelsea, the impressive Mathieu Flamini has taken the central midfield role whilst Bacary Sagna has impressed at right back.
He told L'Equipe: "Each time I join the French team it is a big pleasure. But it is true that my situation for my club is puzzling.
"But it will be sorted out soon. To be called again by Les Bleus I have to play for my club. So that situation has to be settled quickly, I am not getting mad with that. I am patient.
"At Arsenal I don't feel in competition with Bacary Sagna, as I am a midfielder. The midfielders are outstanding, but I work fine in training sessions and I am waiting for an opportunity."
