Shinji Kagawa has played his part in Manchester United’s stunning Premier League triumph and we think we’ve found the explanation for his impressive late-season form.

An unusually philosophical Keisuke Honda commented on his recent goal drought after Japan edged Iraq in a World Cup qualifier today. He told reporters, “goals are like ketchup. Sometimes it doesn’t come out of the bottle and sometimes it squirts all over the place.”
Who knew?
