Midway through the season, Paul meets Sarah, whose propensity for severity, dourness, and single-minded professionalism remind him of the Arsenal's manager. Paul thinks Sarah is too uptight, Sarah thinks Paul is an insane, obsessed fanatic--and they embark on a relationship as tumultuous as the Arsenal's winning streak.
