564 A Strong Base with A Steady Stream of Players

The transfer market would only be opened on July 1st. Before that, even if Arshavin signed a contract with the Forest team, he would not be able to report to Forest. He would remain in Russia.

Twain's heart felt more settled after Arshavin's signing.

The arrival of the Russian let Anelka know that his days at the Forest team had come to an end. Twain did not call his agents/brothers to say, "your brother is not in my plans for next season." He did not want to have any contact with Anelka anymore. The past season, Twain did not speak a word with Anelka, whether in training or in a game. When tactics needed to be instructed, he let Dunn speak with Anelka as he stood on the sidelines and treated the French striker as invisible.

He was that kind of man. When a relationship was good, he would laugh and joke. However, once the relationship broke down, he would just as easily be heartless.
