There was a point yesterday – just before Sunderland scored their freak goal – when I was
thinking: we need to change this game from the bench, but who can we bring on? We have no quality
on the bench!
Silly me.
All it took was one Ramsey pot shot, one sublime cross from Arshavin and one trademark Henry
finish to prove that Arsène Wenger still knows what he's doing.
Football is the world's game, but like any sport, it's appeal is not fully universal. The
Internet, meanwhile, has proven that two things are more popular than all else: pornography and
cats. And since mixing pornography with football would run against numerous public indecency laws
in various parts of the world, that means football executives have no choice but to add cats to the
game in order to push it to the next level.

Sunderland 1-0 Liverpool Premier League 10th March 2012
They may have collected some silverware this season, courtesy of a hard-fought Carling Cup
victory over Cardiff, but overall, this season has been a bit of a damp squib for Kenny Dalglish's
Liverpool side.

Sunderland 0-0 Tottenham Hotspur Premier League 7th April 2012
While a point away at the Stadium of Light is nothing be be ashamed of, Tottenham's failure to
secure all three leaves their Champions League hopes still very much hanging in the balance.
