The FA, in that quote, said it would take 3 days for them to confirm, not that they are giving Arsenal 3 days to complete the transfer. Most sources are saying the paperwork is done.

Zenit St Petersburg have confirmed Arsenal have signed Andrei Arshavin.
The Russian's on-off move to Emirates Stadium dominated transfer deadline day with the deal not being confirmed by the close of play on Monday.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger told Sky Sports News on Monday that the deal would go through and was being held up as it was yet to be ratified by the Premier League...
..The Premier League is expected to finalise the paperwork on Tuesday to allow Arshavin to seal his switch to North London and Zenit claim the move has gone through in a deal worth more than £12million.

Also the 'snow' seems to have caused admin problems for the
Premier League:

It is believed all the relevant complex documentation is in place at the Premier League, but the transfer has yet to be formally ratified because of administration delays caused by the snow that crippled London's transport networks yesterday.
