I think this piccy of Samir is hella adorbs! This one is for wa-tishistas! Notoriousjk and GinaM. Samir is an attacking midfielder for Arsenal in the EPL and also the French National Team.
Karim, looking grumpy and hot.
By all accounts, not a good or exciting game. The team is restructuring a bit with new coach Laurent Blanc and the return of Patrice Evra and Franck Ribery. It’s going to take a bit of time for everything to settle down after this summer’s national team horrorshow at the World Cup.
