Same could have been said for Hargreaves tbh... many were moaning about paying 17m for someone who's only had a decent world cup in an underperforming squad.
Arshavin really is quality, i've noticed him at least two years ago although like you said he hasn't played at such a top level and therefore caught little or no attention. It would be very difficult to sign him now and anything over 12m, IMO, won't be worth it has he only has about 3-4 good years left before he starts losing his pace, which is one of his biggest assets.
