how can gareth barry justify the sale of alonso?!

xabi alonso.

what in the world was benitez thinking of when he wanted to 'offload him' this summer?!

mascherano is a good defensive central midfielder, no doubt. he runs tirelessly and makes all those tackles and does all the dirty work. but he aint creative!

and lucas isn't even good, in my opinion.

thank god the 'barry deal' didn't pull through. and alonso showed his boss why his services should be retained, in the best way possible, by putting up one of his most brilliant performances this season.

hi friends. i just returned from my working trip to find out that one of my college orientation group mate, Fengmin, had passed away 2 days back.

my og was haps, to say the least, as those in the know could attest to that. we were pretty close during those '1st 3 months' and Fengmin would join in many of our activities. as far as i could recall, she was one feisty rgs girl who wouldn't hold back on her comments.

"i've got the most fucked up class ever" was the first thing she said after the release of class allocation.

it's shocking to hear that she had pass on. i'm sure she will be greatly missed by those around her.

rest in peace Fengmin.

olympic

congrats to the germans for their olympic hockey gold.

fucking boring finals it was.. after christopher zeller scored in 17th min in a short corner, the rest of the game was defensive all the way. and spain could find no way around a resilient german defence led, superbly, by captain timo weiss.

ok pointless to continue. no one really understand or knows what i'm talking about anyway. haha.

darn the rain!! grrrrr.

i'm yours

hi

i've been playing shitty hockey recently.. due to:

1. i am fucking unfit
2. i have not been training (of any sorts), which explains pt 1
3. and because of pt 2, i have yet to align myself with the new coach's tactics and style
4. i am playing in an entirely new position of striker

no excuses. i need to make time for training at least once a week from now on. season's still in its early stages and i believe i can do better. definitely do not want to let the team and coach down, knowing expectations of me is high.

roar.

i declare myself mr sporty

(i really do apologize for the title of this post. but i've seen the slogan on some gay tee and thought i wanted to be perverse enough to put it as title)

a great week for sports.

first up, in hockey champions trophy, spain defeated germany to enter the finals. germany are defending champions and world cup back-to-back winners, but their performance in this tourney is deplorable. school boy mistakes and aimless passing.. it's like.. whatever happened to the world cup winning team of 2006 man? most did not play maybe that's why. haha! and of cos the coach is no longer bernhard peters (the dood whom klinsman wanted to engage as technical advisor for the soccer team during '06 world cup).


viva espana! oh the germs jersey's damn nice..

finals will be between spain and aussie tonight at 10pm. channel 22. please watch.

after that will, of course, be euro finals between germany and spain. as we all know, knodsberry farm has been hanging spanish flag since i started watching soccer. and they have been disappointing me since. hopefully after tonight, the label of 'perennial underachievers' can finally be removed from the likes of torres, xavi, fabregas et al. i like germany as well. in fact they rank 2nd in my list after spain, be it hockey or soccer.

it's gonna be a cracking game tonight!

last but not least..

we pulled a russia yesterday by beating the dutch 3-2 in our league game. they demolished us 7-1 last year. this year, with a new coach and new tactics, the team seemed to have renewed our hunger and passion for the game. also, some positions were switched. i am now playing the 'striker-in-the-hole' role*; i scored the equalizer and provided the winning goal =)


revenge is tweet indeed. woot.

probably the only blemish is.. i haven't played soccer since before i left for scotland.

knods

* sounds nice but actually playing that role cos i'm damn unfit =(
