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
