Arsenal….Arsenal..please wake up.
This will be my first post about football.
I am not a hardcore football fan but my other half is, particularly ARSENAL club, i thought i should start to learn and understand the game better. No fun la, every time he ask me out to watch football with his friend, i just look at screen and have no idea whats going on…except seeing the player chasing the ball and kicking and passing it around. I only know they need to score a goal! LOL! Penalty,offside,foul etc etc..thats all alien stuff to me.
It’s fun to see Dan and his friend get really frustated at the game.Their expression is so animated ok..you should see :). Hand gesture will be up in the air, uncensored language, telling the players “Pass la wei, pass! Stupid toooottt, you stupid toootttttt ,tooot,tooot,tooot… hahahahh yes there is a lot of tooots coming out from them. Sometimes, i wonder do they know that the player can’t hear them?? Even if they scream their lungs out, the player will just play the way they want to play the game….. Men and football, i tell you ..so funny.
They have this “crazy” belief too, they must watch the game at Ronnie Q Bangsar. They said, if they watched it there, Arsenal will always win the game. Funny but true though, i have been there like 3 times now with the boys…Arsenal always WIN! Nyek ,Nyek ,Nyek.. Football and pubs..Get along very well dont they? Wonder if thats just an excuse for the boys to go out and drink beers? LOL!
As for me, while the boys stressing themselves out with the game..I concentrate on the screen, trying to catch and see when will the referee blow the whistle and say its a FOUL,OFFSIDE or taking out yellow or red card for the players. And when that happen, there is a lot of questions in my head…why? What happen..how did that happen? Bla bla bla..yes..im lost as usual. Sometimes if i have the chance, i will ask them..but no matter how much they try to explain..i will never get it. specially when it is an offside! I hate offside, cos i can never understand what OFFSIDE is all about! Grrrr..
Anyway, i think Arsenal is not playing at their best this year.They don’t seem to be as motivated as last year. Adebayor is pathethic, he stand and wait for the ball to come to his feet and only move few second later most of the time.. and when he decided to move, it’s too late. NO GOAL! Bohoo!
Van Persie, great player but the last game i wonder why does he have to push the Stoke City goalkeeper? Too emotional,that’s my opinion. He should have just walk away and need not to push the GK. Red card flying! What a waste.
Theo Walcott, i like him..very fast runner,young and most of all ..GOOD LOOKING. Hahahhha.. everytime i see him,i wish i was the kid who hold his hand coming out from the tunnel,LOL. I always tell Daniel how lucky those kid were and i really wish i am the one..i think now he got bored of me telling him the same thing that he’ll nod and then continue with his friend (sob,sob). He used to tease me im a pedophile for liking Theo. Wahhahahahahaha..wahahhahaha!
Nasir( i think that’s his name), he is a great player, although his new..but big potential i think. All he needs now is more exposure and gain more experience.
That’s my humble opinion on the player…don’t bite me k.
Anyhow, thats all la for you peeps…you have a great Thursday!
On other note: Do you have spider problem at home? If yes.. you might want to check this site out spider glue traps, and anyone here know how/ what is the best way to kill “COCOROACH” I hate them so much and they are having so much fun at our place now! Damn you cockroach! Damn!
Daniel: i know you looooove..i know you likeeeee me..you kissssss me last nite when i was slepping…i felt that….nyek, nyek, nyek.

this is nice post because it is about football and… ARSENAL? The rival we are because I am going for the greatest football club ever exist in the world - MANCHESTER UNITED. And last seasons were belongs to MU’s fans because EPL Championship and Champions League’s cup were ours.
So, i think you might have to learn about football more because you got BF who loves football so much. Oh ya, that player’s name not Nasir actually, it is NASRI or his full name is SAMIR NASIR, the new talented potential midfielder for FRANCE national team. I like him too but the problem is he plays for Arsenal.. errhhh..

Wow, this is the best post I’ve read from you in a long time, especially touching on football! You already know more than half of what football is compared to the 95% women out there, who just shrugs and say, “I don’t get it, 22 men running around the field chasing a ball”. Yawns. Women who try to sound intelligent.
You can be a football pundit already. Arsenal is going through a challenging time though most smaller club supporters still see that as a success.
FAIZAL - Manure is a good club, but not the greatest club in the world mind you, it’s Real Madrid. Sorry ah, unless you forgot to count. Hehehehe!
But I that we have one thing in common, we HATE Liverpoo!
*runs away and hides*
BTW, it wasn’t me who kissed you while you were sleeping, I brought Gummy over.

Heh, i surprise you didn’t i?
I am still learning but i believe soon i will be folowing you guys screaming at the players and scolding them for doing silly mistakes 
I agree MU is a great club but i don’t have the same opinion on some of their over the top,confident,ego,no brainier fans…you know who am i talking about kan love? YOUR FRIEND. Lack of sportsmanship…
