Hammers Dragged The Blues.

I guess it wasn't a great week for the top clubs huh? First Liverpool, Manchester United and now Chelsea. They drew their game with West Ham United, managed by their former player Gianfranco Zola. Ashley Cole gave them a penalty, and Matthew Upson gave one back. Lampard have to take it three times; 'cause the referee spotted several players encroaching and made Lampard take it again, and then once more for good measure after yet more encroachment.


For Manchester City, goodbye. You're sacked. Too bad that your boss has a lot of money isn't it? 'cause they can do whatever they want right? Heh.


Here comes Roberto Mancini, former Inter Milan manager who led them to 3 times Italian Serie A league wins. 4 times Copa Italia. It was a shock when he was chosen to lead City, but I hope he sucked like Juande Ramos. He was sacked from Inter before, and I see a pattern here. Like Real Madrid, remember? Managers come and go. Well, let's hope for the best.

Devils Got Trashed. Kop Got Served.

I was happy. So happy. When Portsmouth finally win. Against Liverpool. I laughed, 'till i cried. I texted all my friends who supports Liverpool with lots of bragging.

Then United got trashed, 3-0 by Fulham at Craven Cottage. Having Carrick and Fletcher as defenders was bad enough, but when Scholes gave an easy goal to Murphy. Devils could only pray.

It got worst, right after the second-half kick-off, Zamora and Duff scored 2 more goals. Well, United can't seem to find their flow. Everything seems wrong. Scholes and Gibson were lifeless. Owen looked like a beheaded chicken running around. Anderson was alone in the middle. Evra was a left winger? Where's Obertan? Nani? Berbatov?

Damn. Please. Win. Fly Devils, fly.

Again, Aston Villa and Spurs played brilliantly.

Arsenal was fairly good to kill the game with Hull City.

Ugh. Please.

Champions League: Clashes of The Favorites, Return of Legends.

Second Round

VfB Stuttgart v Barcelona

Olympiakos v Bordeaux

Internazionale v Chelsea

Bayern Munich v Fiorentina

CSKA Moscow v Sevilla FC

Lyon v Real Madrid

FC Porto v Arsenal

AC Milan v Manchester United

Now let see, AC Milan got David Beckham on loan in January, so he'll be meeting with his former boss, Ferguson, in the second round. Oh Devils, what a luck huh?

Lyon welcomes back their former wonder boy, Karim Benzema. They will go against Real Madrid, and so they will be screwed. That's my early prediction.

Inter Milan and Chelsea? Now that's a match we've been waiting for. Former Chelsea's manager, Jose Mourinho, sure would want revenge huh? I'm rooting for Internazionale. Not a Chelsea fan sorry. Duh.

The others? Nahh..not that important.

In the final? Manchester United and Barcelona once again.

Finally, A Win We Deserve.

Last time we won gold medal in football was back in 1989, Sea Games.

That was 20 years ago.

And last Thursday came final against Vietnam brought tears to my eyes. My God, 20 years? Finally we won it.

Sharbinee the unsung hero, Muslim and Aidil Zafuan performed a great partnership at the back. Gurusamy, fairly controlled the midfield. Sabre Abu commanded his area so well. Fakri Saarani, Baddrol Bakhtiar stirred the Vietnamese defenders around.

And finally, K. Rajagobal is the coach who made it happen. Damn! I could have never been happier.

My Malaysia jersey is not for nothing. I'm proud of my boys.

We're In The Final!

Fly Malaysia Fly. Make us proud!

Oh, I forgot to tell you a story.

I watched the game of Vietnam against Malaysia, and Malaysia lost 3-1. With Zaquan red-carded. All they Malaysian players attacked the referee after the match due to his poor decision.

I was disappointed. Sheesh.

So, I didn't bother to watch the next game against Thailand. So, i I just catch the news. It came as a surprise to me. On the 53rd minutes, Thai player Arthit Suthornpit scored a great free kick to lead 1-0. Thing looked to go their way.

On the 81st minutes, along came Mohd Nasriq Baharom to equalize the score. With that goal, with only few minutes to go, Malaysia went nuts on attacking. It paid off in the last minute, Ahmad Fakri Saarani scored the winning goal. And booked a place in the semi-final against Laos. I was hyped. I really can't believe it.

With my ass in Melaka, having the time of my life, the newspaper was my only way to find out the news on the latest football game. Woke up early in the morning, went to find a newspaper which is never this hard, have to asked around for it. Found one and found out that Malaysia beat Laos, 3-1. Hell yeah i'm ecstatic!

WE'RE IN THE FINAL.

We got another chance to win the SEA Game in football. The last time was 20 years ago. Oh hell yeah, I want revenge against Vietnam. Please win.

United's Lost. Chelsea's Draw. Arsenal's Win. Liverpool's Downward Fall.

Okay, I've been away to camped out in between Melaka and Johor for 4 days and i missed out on the weekend's games.

So, i have to watched the delayed matches.

Chelsea against Everton was a surprise for me. Everton managed to draw level with Chelsea in Stamford Bridge. 3-3. Wow.

Sorry boss, it's a draw.

Nuff' said. I looked at this result and said convinced that Manchester United could level their pints with Chelsea yo!

Close the Gab!!!

And I was wronggggggg..they lost to Aston Villa in Old Trafford. Dang! 1-0; Agbonlahor scored the only goal. And It was a frustrating match. It was sooooo close! The ball grazed the bar, Giggs flustered, Valencia was one step short of scoring a goal, but all of it, didn't go United's way. 3 points short it is. And my fantasy team's point dropped due to this. Roar!

Stoke City and Wigan drew their game with 2-2 on the scoreboard. With Maynor Figueroa scored a thunderous free kick from half the field to beat Stoke's goalkeeper, Thomas Sorensen. What a great goal. Definitely one of the greatest goal ever scored. Oh, this is the first time i mention your name Figueroa. I guess it'll also be the last time. Duh!

Liverpool against Arsenal was the highlight of the weekend. It was a match of the fallen. Arsenal boys have to prove themselves whether they are worthy of the Premier League top spot. Liverpool have to win to prove that they are not a loser. Duh!

I have to go hardy har-har over this game, Liverpool have Torres and Gerrard in this game, but they lost to Wenger's boy.

It was a fast game indeed, but Gerrard fell to easy on Gallas's challenge, that's why the referee can't give you a penalty stupid head. Quit complaining. Dirk Kuyt scored the first goal and yes, you have the right to celebrate. Johnson scored a goal for Arsenal, so, you should have celebrate right? Haha! It was funny when I watched it.

From hero to zero huh,Johnson?

Along came Arshavin with a pass from the Fabulous Fabregas, to beat Reina with a shot in the right corner. A win was sealed. Liverpool lost another game. I have to laugh out loud to Liverpool's fans. Boo!

Spurs lost to Wolves, 1-0. Dammit.

Manchester City drew against Bolton,3-3, who saw that comin', tell me. Geez.

Sunderland drew their game against Portsmouth too, 1-1.

Birmingham won 1-0 against West Ham United. Lee Bowyer was the hero.

Fulham against Burnley, Hull and Blackburn. All draws.

All and all, lotsa draws. Less win. Not a happy weekend for the top league leaders. Roar! This is me, mad.

Owen To The Rescue!

When all hopes and dreams seems to have lost it ways. A hero came to the rescue.

Michael Owen scored a hatrick.

'Nuff said.

With Carrick and Fletcher filling in for the central defenders' position, Evra and Ji-Sung as the flankers, it was an odd game to watch. And entertaining one it is.

Oh, Real Madrid and Bayern won their game. So, Juventus is out of the Champions League and in the Europa Cup, basically for losers, in my opinion.

Glory Man. United. Glory.

The Winner, The Fallen and The Damned

Devils rule the game.

I sipped my 'teh tarik', breathing a huge sigh. A smirk over to my friends whereas they are the fans of the Blues and the Reds. A little cough as a reminder to them, that their team has fallen this week.

Manchester United looked dominant in the opponent's home turf. West Ham played like a team who struggled; which they never did the season before. The ginger Paul Scholes started the run, scoring just before the end of first-half. And they simply took the game and fly with it in the second-half. With the evergreen Giggs looking as fresh as ever, feeding the ball to Darron Gibson and scored a goal with a thunderous strike. Valencia scored the next goal with a great cross from Anderson. Rooney seal the deal with an assist from Valencia; now he deserved the place at the right side.

Next week will be a tough week for United as they lost Gary Neville, Wes Brown and Jonny Evans to injuries. Now added to the list of Ferdinand, Vidic, Rafael, Fabio and John O'Shea. 8 defenders are out, and two left; Evra and De Laet. Against West Ham, they already dropped Carrick and Giggs as centre-back, which is odd enough. Now they are looking to scramble around their players to fit the position 'cause Aston Villa is a threat, looking at last weekend's form, 3-0 win against Hull City with Dunne, Milner and Carew scored each goal respectively.

Money against money. Funny enough for Chelsea, none of their players scored a goal. It was all City's players. Adebayor scored an opening goal for Chelsea; an own goal it is, as the ball saved by Given bounced off Adebayor's back and went into his own net but he made amends in the 37th minutes to equalise.

Tevez scored a free kick after the second-half started but Onouha foul on Drogba made it look like Chelsea was going home with a draw. Lampard failed to score his penalty, and oddly enough, none of the Chelsea players were alert to rush in for the ball saved by Shay Given. Oh, Lampard rarely miss his penalty, that's why. Haha! City finally ended their draws with a win against Chelsea.

Don't blame the referee! What goes around, comes around!

A lot of penalty missed this weekend, Defoe's penalty saved by Howard. Everton and Spurs ended the game with a draw, 2-2.

Fabregas's penalty saved by Sorensen, luckily they won the game 2-0.

Blackburn at home against Liverpool, goalless draw. Ngog sure is fun to watch. He should have scored, but he didn't. That made it fun to watch. And Blackburn should have won the game, but they didn't. Too bad. And even worse for Rafa. Last week's win against Everton can't do much huh?

'Most Likely To Sink Award'

Blues Gunned Down The Gunners

I am still in shocked due to the weekends' game; that's why it took me a while to write this piece.

Me and my boys were an hour early for the Everton against Liverpool, changing places in between game for Arsenal versus Chelsea. 2 cups of coffee produced enough energy to last all night until Real Madrid and Barcelona game. 3 awesome fight and other games looked kinda pale.

Rooney killed off Pompey with a hatrick and Giggs marked his 36th birthday with a stunning free kick. Kevin Prince Boateng managed to score one goal thru a questionable penalty given by the referee due to Kusczak's foul; which is irrelevant. 4-1 it is.

Everton was lifeless. Jo was offside prone. Fellaini is still with the aggression and earned only the ref's attention. Saha should have been played earlier instead of Jo. Pienaar's passes were inneffective. Liverpool without Torres do looked, well, not that deadly.Both team looked even at half time, with only an own goal by Yobo; kicked by Mascherano which I thought "Oh? He can kick the ball?". Everton's effort looking for a win against Liverpool was kinda lame(?) and not edgy enough to kill off Liverpool's desperation.

Second half chances should be sealed off by Fellaini who stabbed the ball bounced off Reina; which Rafa tipped as the world's best goalkeeper, i dunno in what sense and in which game. And there goes your only chance. Liverpool made use of the opponent's defenders mistake; Yobo again, and score another goal thru Kuyt. He appeared indestructible. Everton looked even more lifeless after the second goal. 2-0 it is. Finally a win for the Reds. Boo!

Chelsea and Arsenal; was the game anticipated. For the fans, it is their pride. For the neutrals, it is a great game to make fun at them.

Arsenal lost Van Persie due to injury and it 'caused them the fluid movement in the attacking. Eduardo was too slow and Arshavin was predictable. The only thing Fabregas can do was his wishful passing to his teammates; and they could do nothing. The Arsenal boys looked too weak against the powerful Chelsea men. Their defenders looked fragile, there was no chemistry between Gallas and Vermalaen. First goal scored by Drogba, assisted by their own boy, Ashley Cole. Second goal came in from the same guy, Ashley Cole who crossed the ball in, with a nimbly deflection on Vermalaen, the ball went in. Dubbed Vermalaen as the culprit of an own goal. Then came the third goal. From a free kick of Drogba. Well, now be careful of this guy. He's a beast, don't provoke him. Even with the subs; Rosicky, Walcott and Vela, Arsenal can't do a thing. Boys will be boys. Inexperience boys can't win titles. Chelsea cruised thru the game and won. 3-0 it is.

Now the race is back. Between Manchester United and Chelsea. Trust me. It is between them.
