Nice post adrian:)
I TOTALLY AGREE WITH THE LIVERPOOL FANS WITH THE ALZHEIMER'S PART!!
All my liver fan friends go like 'we're totally gonna win it this year' at the start of the season. and when you go ' wanna bet?' they go 'oh yeah!' ..until they start playing badly. then they'll start to keep their mouths shut and wait till the season ends so they start all over again next season.

and the real madrid part. so true. it's so ignorant of them to buy all the star players and think they'd gel like glue or whatnot. class cannot be bought by money(you hear that, man city and chelsea??) only great clubs like man united can bring out the class in players:)

p.s. frankly i think that kahn deserves to be stuck up. i'd say he was the second best goalie i've seen on a football pitch(sorry, i'm a very opionated person. some people seem hate me for that). best was of course our very own peter schmeichel(who was also very stuck up) heck, cantona was also very, very stuck up, but that's a different story. it's not wrong unless you're someone like drogba, ashley cole, dida, kalac..etc etc..

moving on to the inter v united match...

we totally dominated the first half. giggs, carrick were playing very well and inter looked like they were just walking around with sore tushies. i was super-suprised to find out that fergie left rooney on the bench(why oh why??) but i was glad enough i didn't see materazzi's monkey'looking face either.

inter started to get into the game in the second half and ibra became more of a threat. but even with vidic suspended, gary neville and wes brown hurt, (luckily jonny evans and o'shea were declared fit an hour before kick-off..) they couldn't really penetrate our defense.

cesar gets my vote for man of the match though.

i thought it was an exciting match but with a disappointing result(Gahh!! all the pretty chances that c ronaldo blew up..) but when inter get their pretty little tushes to old trafford, we're gonna kick them in the butt soooo hard:)

I've got nothing to do.=P

It's Adrian W. here.I just wanted to say a few things.There are a few European clubs I really hate with all my guts.Let me list them.

5.Bayern Munich

I never liked them.They made the Bundesliga boring.And their chairman is quite an idiot.Oliver Kahn used to be quite stuck up,and Bayern used to suck the best players in Germany and won the title again and again.But failed badly in Europe.Quite like United,actually.Maybe that's why they are called FC Hollywood.

4.Arsenal

This was during 02-04,back when a bunch of idiots called Lauren,Vieira,Keown,Campbell,ASHLEY COLE,Mad Jens Lehmann and Arsene's blindness used to think they could usurp MAN UNITED! They used to play pretty dirty,and always had players sent off during games.But the reason why they are fourth is because I still respect their ability.

3.Chelsea FC

For being rich and now,down the drain.Good for them.Mourinho's presence made it all the easier.But so are a few of the stuck-ups there.Drogba,Mikel (dirty bugger), ASHLEY COLE (yes him again),JOHN TERRY I FREAKING HATE YOU CHELSEA CHEATING SCUMS.How I cried when John Terry cried in the CL final 08,I was so overcome with emotion.Of joy,that is.How I laughed when Drogba slapped Vidic LOL.How I kept thinking Avram Grant resembled Droopy,and Ashley Cole getting caught cheating on his wife.Goodbye Abramovich,you are gonna leave soon with your Russian love.

2.Liverpool

18 league titles,5 European cups,boring football since 1990,living in the past.Liverpool only lose out on first spot because they are NOT WORTH THAT SPOT.Think about it.Every time you talk to a Liverpool fan,they seem to be under the influence of drugs when they talk about their team.Oh Torres! Gerrard! Whereas we say "Oh the league title! Oh Ronaldo 42 goals! Oh European champions!" Living in history is like saying...eh you know,last time I won a title in Formula 1,it was such a great achievement you know! It was back in 1940,when the car was first invented,I raced with a toy car and won! But now you can't win when everyone else has cars,meaning you WERE a great club,but now you're not.The thing I hate most is Liverpool fans thinking that just because they won a lot,so they deserve to be included in the "top 4 whatever".I love it when year after year,Liverpool fans' faces change within three months.At May,they are sad because again they won nothing,but come August they will kid themselves into thinking "this is our year!" And then get disappointed again.It's like they have Alzhiemer's or something.

Add this to the fact that Gerrard is a dump footballer who gets owned every time he plays at OT,but yet they think he is Captain America, and it's enough to know why Liverpool are a shite team.Their goals mostly consist of

a)long ball,Torres,goal
b)Gerrard rocket

Now that is crap football.When Benitez leaves,so will Torres,Alonso,Riera,Mascherano.All the Latin fellas will go.That leaves them with Superman (who nearly went off to Chelsea,but then Liverpool fans threatened him with Kryptonite,so he got scared) and Carragher,who I am sure are future World Footballers of the Year.And uh,Dirk Kuyt.Good luck Liverpool.

AND THE WINNER IS.....


































1.Real Madrid

Just because you bought Beckham then overtook United as the world's richest club (by the way after Peter Kenyon started the Utd megastore all the other clubs followed our merchandising scheme and made money off replica kits and more) that doesn't entitle you to be so big-headed and buy a superstar every season.Adios,galacticos.Good for them they are still in the hole they dug for themselves.I just can't hate them enough.

Bullying other clubs and buying contigents of players (Brazilians - it used to be Ronaldo,Roberto Carlos,Julio Baptista,Robinho) (Holland - V.Nistelrooy,Van der Vaart,Sneijder,Robben) thinking that they can give the best football,dream on lah.I hope a meteor crashes in the Santiago Bernabeu.Oh,and Fernando Alonso supports this crap of a team too.The horror =O

Btw,tribute to Paul Scholes.

Reporter: Who is your toughest opponent?
Zidane: Scholes of Manchester.He is the complete midfielder.

We won again:) too bad santa cruz dirtied our scoresheet..

I actually wrote this blog in defense of arshavin, scholes and bayern munich. i was once scolded 'a load of bollocks' by an english guy when i told him that beckham was overrated, so what i think is..we have to be careful when we critisize.

Firstly, i think it's sad that arsenal bought arshavin. i watched him play during euro 2008 and that boy can really work wonders. he's raw talent and i seriously hope that arsenal won't put him to waste, like samir nasri, the ex-marseille prodigy(it's not like arsenal's gonna win anything for the few years to come anyway) but yeah, he wasnt anything out of the ordinary in his debut for arsenal. sometimes i wished we had better competition:P

As for scholes, yeah. his tackling is not thaaat good, but i've seen worse. 'sucks' is a very strong word don't you think? besides, scholesy has perfect passing to make up for his lack in tackling skills. and his powerful and long range shots are just breathtaking, even when it doesn't hit the net. players like nani and ronaldo should really get passing lessons from scholesy.

I watched the bayern v cologne match. Of course, bayern weren't playing too well last night. klose's shot on the 13th min was ruled offside.. Lahm and demichelis were careless to let in the 2 goals.. and the cologne defenders were really pissing rensing off. on the whole i thought cologne weren't a club with exactly good sportsmanship. but nevermind.. i just think it's unfair to laugh at bayern because they're actually not bad a club.

I'm really looking forward to this tuesday's match. partly because i haaate inter milan and i hope we kill them and stomp them on the ground and let them die in agony.. lol. but we definitely have to look out for ibra. he's in really really good form. and also materazzi in case he says something to get someone to headbutt him again. inter aren't the kind of club who'll play nice and on the whole they fall quite easily onto the ground. and they're quite violent/agressive and man-mark potential scorers very, very closely(that was what i concluded about them after watching the inter matches in serie a, e.g. they eliminate good players like kaka by kicking them until they get hurt, but they never get any cards for a weird reason. hopefully they'll use a better/undirty approach for champions league games). but i believe we can beat them. class always goes above dirty schemes, no?

p/s: who doesn't know that cesar is inter's gk??? o.O

Was just watching shorty's debut for l'Arse.Although he played quite okay (6/10) in my opinion,le Professor used him on the right,which I think is a complete waste of talent,otherwise he could cause real damage in midfiled.

I heard Chelsea played quite well,though I think they cannot last long.As for Liverpool...well they are the king of the unexpected.

Just to correct Terence T.,Scholes's tackling sucks.He can't tackle for nuts,and has been sent off a fair number of times in his career for bad timing.The most recent being his foul on Totti in the Champions League.

And as I was watching this,Ribery-inspired Bayern are down 2-0 at home to FC Koln! LOL.Personally,there is not much to write about right now as the Premier League is boring,the other competitions are not worth mentioning,and the Champions League is next week.So I guess for your benefit,I will talk about Inter-United soon.But for now,just some key talking points.

Inter has been blowing hot and cold in Serie A,but you can't judge them on their league position (1st but who cares) because the competition in Italy this year has been dismal.By far they are the best team in Italy.Juve are inconsistent,Milan are old,and Roma are somewhere in the table,I don't know where.Lack of competition=foregone conclusion.They might as well bring out the champagne now.

However,any team who has Zlatan Ibrahimovic is worth looking out for,even though the rest of the team may not be that chun lah.Julio Cesar (keeper,for those who do not know) is in the form of his life,Walter Samuel seems solid,ditto Maicon,and Zanetti is evergreen though he is considered the grandfather of Inter.Ibra remains superb (just look at his highlights for this season alone),and the midfield of Muntari,Cambiasso and Stankovic are quite solid and formidable.And let's not forget the irritating bastard on the bench with his Armani overcoat and well-groomed hair,Mourinho.He may be an idiot and a big-mouth but this is a man who knows his stuff,mark my words.Bad results at Chelsea is not a way to measure his worth.The guy is one of the best motivators in the world.

Before you start crying that Man United will find this team hard to beat,I will post on their weaknesses in the next post.But for now let's just say that when Inter look at the squad we have,they will know that there's a reason we are champions in England and hold clean sheet records blah blah.Goodnight people.

We all know Scholes is the main midfield general of Manchester United, and he has still been one of the best in terms of cross-field passes, crosses, defense-breaking passes, tackling and many others. His vision, skill and technique is one of the main reasons why former Manchester United midfielder Robbie Savage was offloaded to another club. Yeah you have got it right, Robbie Savage...

Yes yes we all do know that Robbie Savage is now suffering while playing in a team managed by Nigel Clough, Derby County. Anyone read the newspaper few days ago? Savage got spat upon by no one else other than the FIFA World Player of the Year Cristiano Ronaldo. Thank goodness it was not a major problems caused despite all the media coverage.

Anyways, back to the Scholes Screamer which we saw on TV at 8pm (+8GMT) aka 4am Malaysian time @ ESPN this morning. We noticed how much Scholes is still much of a talent and respect to the players despite being humbly humiliated by the Messiah (Lionel Messi) in the Champions League Semis at Old Trafford last year. All in all, did you know Messi himself is a Scholes fan?

Mark Schwarzer, the Fulham goalkeeper must have felt that the sting of the shot which was provided by Michael Carrick to Paul Scholes to allow it to roll past his grasp and sneak into the other side of the goal. It was so obvious that Schwarzer was actually swining his palms after the goal during the group celebrations amongst the ManUtd players.

Edwin van der Sar is argueably the most relieved goalkeeper in the world after Bobby Zamora's double attempts which almost sneaked into the goal during the game. Luckily the fans and players alike survived the scare and Edwin was caught by cameras with double eyebrows raised and winking at the cameras. Pure comedian from the 38 year old veteran.


Yes. We all know we are 5 points top, but lets hope we will keep up with this form and don't get sloppy with it. There's still another 13 more games to go and its time for us to buckle up and keep cheering for the best team in England, Europe and in the world.


Terence T.

My goodness people.. update.. its like only me and yi jan posting posts here...!

4-1 trashing of Derby. No more clean sheet. But oh well.. The goals were good. But stupid Arsenal and Chelsea qualified too. Saw Eduardo? Crap. He's gonna be a dangerous player la.. hope some one breaks his ankle again. And while he's at it, break John Terry's too.. lol..

So yeah people. Update. Compliment Man Utd... Praise them. Its what the blog's for.. haha..

It's been a while since anyone posted anything, so seeing as it's valentine's day and i'm stuck at home doing nothing, i decided to post this, a collection of my favourite pundit football quotes by comentators, players and managers.

These are by Eric the king:
-"My best moment? I have a lot of good moments but the one I prefer is when I kicked the hooligan."
-"No, it is me." (After being asked whether Zinédine Zidane or Michel Platini was the greatest-ever French footballer)
-"I might have said that, but on the whole I talk a lot of rubbish."
