On arrival he was seen as shit but he has scored more league goals than both Robbie Keane and Dimitar Berbatov put together, during the current season.

International career

In 2005, Pavlyuchenko was first called into the Russian national team and since then has been consistently earning caps at the national level. As of August 2008 he has made 24 appearances for the national team and scored ten goals.

Euro 2008

Pavlyuchenko was in the spotlight when he scored both goals in Russia's 2–1 victory in a crucial Euro 2008 qualification match against England. He was named in Guus Hiddink's 23-man squad for Euro 2008.

He scored a late consolation goal in Russia's loss to Spain in their opening match of the campaign and the first goal in Russia's third match of the tournament against Sweden to send Russia through at Sweden's expense. He was declared Man of the Match after the 1–0 game with Greece, although he did not score in the game, and then scored the first goal of the match in Russia's 3–1 quarter final victory over the Netherlands. After the tournament ended, he was named in the 23-man Team of the Tournament.
