Nothing ever goes wrong when professional footballers start gambling, which is why Arsenal star Jack Wilshere has goaded Spurs fans on his Twitter feed with a �3,000 who-will-finish-higher wager.
After last night's match against an utterly feckless Aston Villa side, Tottenham sit in third place with a game in hand.

Wilshere's bet has been praised by manager Arsene Wenger, who admires the competitive spirit of a player who hasn't had any impact on the current season: "[The bet shows] that we are ready for a challenge and the charity will get some money," he told the official Arsenal site.
