Arsenal ace Andrey Arshavin says Anfield's Liverpool fans are more passionate than Manchester United's support.

Arshavin claims Russian fans should learn how to support their team better by taking lessons from Kopites.

He said: "Our fans need to learn from the English football supporters, and in particular from Liverpool fans."

Told that Chelsea star Yuri Zhirkov was awestruck by Manchester United fans after CSKA Moscow's trip to Old Trafford, Arshavin added: "It's only because he hasn't played against Liverpool yet."
