A bit of a break before the Monday FA Cup third round tie against Leeds United. After a hectic
last one week of football, it's a welcomed breather for the team. 7 out of 12 points from our last
4 games is not ideal but it isn't bad either. Could've been more had the team not collapse in the
last part of the Fulham game.

I have woken up this morning all ready to give you a thorough breakdown of all the latest Arsenal
transfer rumours, but the first one I looked at was so laughable that I just had to write an
article on it! In an "Exclusive" in the Daily Mirror, a "reporter" by the name of James [...]
1. Mario Balotelli responded to his latest bout of controversy with a typical shrug of the
shoulders, but he put it to great effect on this occasion. 2. Feed the Yak some Venky's chicken and
he will score. 3. The 'Kean Out' protests are always likely to sound a tad more hollow after a 4-2
[...]
Echoing the sentiments of Kieran Richardson this week, another former Manchester United youth
product at Sunderland, Wes Brown, has claimed he is looking forward to returning to Old Trafford
this weekend.
"It'll be good. I'm really looking forward to going back to Old Trafford," said
Brown.
Kieran Richardson joined Manchester United as a teenager and showed great promise down the left
wing. He made his England début when he was 20-years-old and scored twice, seeming to be another
youth product ready to make his mark at United.
However, poor form and unimpressive attitude made him unpopular amongst United fans, with him
receiving jeers from some when he scored against Watford in the FA Cup semi-final in 2007 and even
when he lifted the Premier League trophy later that year.
Darren Bent's first return to Wearside since his switch to Aston Villa has dominated the
headlines, but Steve Bruce will more concerned with trying to find what would only be his third
home win of 2011.
Alex McLeish is coming off the back of two losses; one far from unexpected, the other extremely
disappointing.
After two great seasons in the United first team squad, Jonny Evans' form dropped dramatically
last season, with him repeatedly being shrugged off and outjumped by opponents.
In more recent times, whilst the likes of Darren Fletcher and John O'Shea have had long stints
in the first team following poor form, the likes of Kieran Richardson and Phil Bardsley weren't so
lucky.
Arsenal moved into the top half of the Premier League table for the first time since the
opening day of the season with a nervy 2-1 win over Sunderland at the Emirates Stadium.
Robin van Persie scored after just 29 seconds to give Arsenal the lead, but Sebastian
Larssonlevelled for the visitors just after the half-hour mark with a trademark free-kick.
Such a long wait for this beauty of a freekick
The last captain's performance we had was from Cesc Fabregas against Aston Villa. That 20 odd
minutes that he put in then, inspired us to victory. This time around, Robin Van Persie came up
with the goods and delivered a performance worthy of the armband.
Sunderland star Kieran Richardson has made an apology to the club's fans following their defeat to
newly promoted Norwich City on Monday night in the Premier League.
The Black Cats have made a poor start to the season with just one win coming from their first six
games, despite the club splashing the cash in the summer.
Did you see that remarkable stat this week that, before the game against Wales, Scott Parker had
won seven caps for England under three different managers over the course of 8 years whilst playing
for five different clubs?
Nothing like consistency of selection, eh?
Since his debut against Denmark in 2003, the following players have been capped in (broadly)
midfield:
Alan Thompson (1 cap)
Shaun Wright-Phillips (36 caps)
Stewart Downing (29 caps)
Kieran Richardson (8 caps)
Theo Walcott (18 caps)
Aaron Lennon (19 caps)
Joey Barton (1 cap)
David Bentley (7 caps)
Ashley Young (17 caps)
Gabby Agbonglahor (3 caps)
James Milner (19 caps)
Tom Huddlestone (3 caps)
Adam Johnson (8 caps)
Jack Wilshere (5 caps)
Now, of those, the most capped are basically wingers: Wright-Phillips, Downing, Walcott, Lennon,
Young, Milner.

No, not Kieran Richardson, we're talking about
Kieron Richardson here i.e, that scrawny-looking fella from
Hollyoaks...
Spot on. Unfortunately, both seem to share that slightly feral, 'raised in the sewers by pack
rats' look.

Following Wes Brown's transfer to Sunderland, Jonny Evans has been given his number 6 shirt
which he had worn since 2003. Evans' 23 shirt, which he inherited from Kieran Richardson, has now
been passed down to Tom Cleverley. Evans insists he's not bothered by the change in numbers though
and isn't at all superstitious about the shirt he plays in.
Approaching the ground on Saturday 13th August I had a good feeling regarding the opening game
of the season. A home game at Anfield against Sunderland, who had brought in 9 new faces during the
summer, was surely the perfect opportunity for Liverpool to take 3 much needed early points. I left
Anfield with a feeling that the opportunity had gone a begging, despite it being there for the
taking.

Liverpool's Strikeforce: Luis Suarez & Andy Carroll
I should have spent more time on Sunderland in my preview of their match versus Liverpool, but I
didn't want to make it a season preview. They definitely need to add attacking options and put a
leash on Lee Cattermole. But Stéphane Sessègnon is impressive; Ahmed Elmohamady, Kieran
Richardson & Gyan are all big factors, and their back line was well organized, essentially making
Andy Carroll irrelevant.
Eyes on new-look Liverpool as Sunderland spoil the party is a post from: Just Football

Sebastian Larsson made a superb start for Sunderland to score
on his debut and earn them a point at Liverpool.
It took only five minutes for the first penalty of the premiership season to be awarded after
Kieran Richardson tripped Luis Suarez.
GRAHAM POLL VERDICT: Referee should have sent Richardson off
Kenny Dalglish was absolutely right to complain that Phil Dowd should have dismissed Kieran
Richardson when the Sunderland man brought down Luis Suarez to concede a penalty at Anfield.

Thanks Moses, Jesus and Chewbacca the Premier League is back though, we can't lie, the opening
day was a little bit on the pap side here's our pick of the photos...

The new Premier League season may be less than a day old but Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has
already called for clarity on rules after his side's 1-1 draw at home to Sunderland.
Just five minutes into the match at Anfield Kieran Richardson brought down Luis Suarez as he
rounded goalkeeper Simon Mignolet.
