Sunderland Vs Arsenal

"Denilson is back, Walcott and Wilshere are all available for selection," said the Arsenal manager.

"Walcott will be in the squad for Sunderland. Fabianski is not very far, so it [the injury situation] is a bit better."

Wenger also hinted that he may rest William Gallas and Bacary Sagna after France's match against Ireland went to extra-time on Wednesday.

Andrey Arshavin may also be left out of the starting XI after playing in a Play-Off match against Slovenia for Russia.

"The French players have played 120 minutes," explained Wenger. "Arshavin comes back from a very long trip and is very disappointed. Apart from that, it is not too bad."

Good to have Denilson back... I'm quite worried that Gallas played 120 minutes, but did Sagna as well?

Let's hope the boys can dig a result out of this one, as Sunderland are not easy to beat.

Eduardo Signs New Deal

Arsenal striker Eduardo has signed a new long-term contract at the club.

"Eduardo is a special player with huge talent," manager Arsene Wenger said. "We're so happy he has committed his future to Arsenal."

The 26-year-old Brazil-born Croatian joined the Gunners in July 2007 and has scored 18 goals in 48 appearances.

He has been a regular in the squad this season following his recovery from a badly broken leg, which sidelined him for almost a year.

"Eduardo is a human being full of courage, bravery and commitment," Wenger added.

"His full recovery from this injury is a testament to Eduardo's character. We all look forward to enjoying Eduardo's performances in an Arsenal shirt for a long time to come."

Eduardo has scored three times in 13 games this season, often featuring as a substitute.

But with Robin van Persie, Nicklas Bendtner and Theo Walcott all sidelined by injury, Eduardo could be set for a run in the side.

"I am very pleased to have signed a new long contract with the club," he said.

"I'm very happy and I hope to stay at Arsenal for as long as I can. This period is good for me now. I feel strong in my body and I feel ready to play 90 minutes every three days if it's needed."

Eduardo showed off his match sharpness by scoring two goals in Croatia's 5-0 thrashing of Liechtenstein on Saturday.

"I went to Croatia last week and everybody was telling me Arsenal play the best football in Europe at the moment," he said.

"I agree with that. We feel we are strong now this season and we're all going to give everything to win trophies."

Eduardo suffered a fractured left fibula and an open dislocation of his left ankle after a tackle by Birmingham's Martin Taylor in February 2008.

One year later, he marked his return with two goals against Cardiff in the FA Cup.

Do the Irish deserve a Replay

	Well am pretty much sure we all know the reason why... The Football Association of Ireland has lodged a complaint with Fifa asking for their World Cup play-off against France to be replayed.

What football needs... but will never get

"The blatantly incorrect decision by the referee to award the goal has damaged the integrity of the sport and we now call on Fifa, as the world governing body for our sport, to organise for this match to be replayed," read an FAI statement.

"There is precedent for the invalidation of such results. In 2005, the Bureau of the Fifa World Cup organising committee reached a decision to invalidate the result of a World Cup qualification match between Uzbekistan and Bahrain on the basis of a 'technical error by the referee of the match'.

"The Football Association of Ireland is hoping that Fifa and its Disciplinary Committee will, on behalf of football fans worldwide, act in a similar fashion so that the standards of fair play and integrity can be protected."

I feel for Ireland... but it's not the first time and won't be the last time. I won't ever forget how Italy got past Australia in 2006... and the countless times Arsenal have been f***ed over.

Moving on... I hope Gooners like Numix get something to cheer about this weekend.

"I would like to be like Eddie Murphy, the comedian," admitted Eboue in an exclusive 'Spotlight' interview on Arsenal TV Online.

"I love to watch the movies and I always say that after football I dreamed to be an actor. I say that all the time.

"I would love to be an actor in Hollywood and why not? I always try to make people happy."
