Six FTW

Recently if you followed the BPL season, there are three teams who scored 6 goals against none. but what surprised me more is that Newcastle are one of teams. Newcastle opposition, Aston Villa are superior, at least what appeared in the paper. Not to conceded what the team done in previous game under new manager. Chelsea have scored six goals twice in and last game they did it against Wigan who last season beaten two goals more what they got in this season. Arsenal too had their easy game by giving Blackpool what it seems to be a reality check that more will come to their campaign.

If add these goals to the 2nd weeks, it easily achieved 25+ goals. The new season have a few surprise and many more will be offered and maybe the results mostly are unexpected by the pundits and fans alike.

Cardiff City

From a city to another city, Cardiff City that is. Malaysian owned club, according to a certain newspaper, loaned the star of Manchester City in form of Craig Bellamy. Not a few day after his move, he will be holding the captain armband. With his credibility, I hope Cardiff will become first Welsh side if I'm not mistaken to be promoted to Premier League

That's that

High school of the dead

If anyone watch the new anime call high school of the dead, the viewer are treat by rather a good anime of the undead people. I watch the first 3 episode and it is exceed to my expectation although it is a ecchi type anime. A lot of references done in there and most references that caught my attention is in episode 3 where a burning bus blocked the tunnel as a reminiscence of Resident Evil 2 where Claire Redfield and Leon Kennedy were separated by a truck. Don't know about a dialog though but in the story itself, Bujisima were told to meet at the police station just like in RE 2. After goggled this anime, a lot of references are there including Shaun of the Dead.

Spoiler though, I skipped a lot of episode 6 because of the fanservice offered by the anime.

Manchester "Money all that matter" City

After a long hiatus, i decide to update my blog once again. Of course, before a season kick-off there is always a transfer market and once again for second year in a row, Manchester City is in the headlines again by purchasing a big names. As everybody know, David Silva are among others who had became a citizen. The management of MC are basically try to make MC a force to be reckon with, similar with Chelsea but what make it different is that Chelsea won the league after a big spending two years consecutively. With winning a Europa cup seems to be a major goal of the club apart from achieving a CL qualification.

Switch to another Manchester side, Sir Alex Ferguson opt to buy a younger talents this season, since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo and failure to win the previous season's league. Still, the side do well this season despite without their impact as we can see on MU vs Newcastle games.

Au revoir, France

France shouldn't qualified for the world cup in the first place. They humiliated only themselves. Prior to the in-break between two half of France second game, tense between Anelka and the coach Raymond Domenench are inevitable as Anelka swearing toward his coach and as a retribution, the FFF sends him home. This made the french boycotting their training session. This alone proves how morale of the France team and thus disrupt the harmony within the team. Some might said that Domenench should be fired after the 2006 world cup. They at least aren't repeating the feat they had in 2002 world cup. In the last game of group A, South Africa beat France 2-1. Speaking of South Africa, they became the first host failed to qualified to the 2nd round. While Mexico are qualified as expected, they have a quite tough opposition in the next round.

Nice to see your home fans boo ya! That what loyal support is

Another England poor display. This time against minnows Algeria. Yesterday game was horrible to watch, there are so few shoot attempted and unorganized defense system. To add insult to injury, Rooney hit back on their fans who jeered the team. First game some goalkeeper error that propel team America but, this is unacceptable even for true pundits. Their lack of morale after the USA game may lead to the poor performances but to me, it was a pressure from both the fans and ultimately, the media.

The English are having among the best league in the world but yet, a Championship club play better than them. Of course, Germany played earlier also lost their games, but nothing compare to this. If look at the team, there are only two men deserved to be criticized which is Jamie Carragher, who supposed to be retired and Emile Heskey. In fact, Heskey are the worst among the first eleven. Thankfully, the coach weren't picked Green again. The problems started when Capello excluded Theo Walcott from the 25 men squad. Walcott got the speed, the brain and everything a common footballer has. Looked back at the Arsenal games, most of the games that feature Walcott, Arsenal does win. He looked so instrumental in those wins. Of couse, last of few games won't feature him or his form is so unconvincing, but at least that can't be a reason why Capello should axed him. This England lack everything of what he has.

That't that

World cup matches

after a long while I din't update my blog but here we are again. Since there are too many match I've to remember, I pick the Brazilian match, from what I see, Brazil just plain lucky to win the match. Don't get me wrong, I am too a proud fan of the samba boys. I try my best to biased toward a particular team. They proved to be useless without their samba and the opposition make a better statement where they are playing better despite their lack possession of the ball. But despite those "blunders" make by Brazil, what a goal by Maicon. Some can say that the ball may help the goal but that what make it difference by comparing playing styles.

Talk about playing styles, Messi are great player and thus deserved the title FIFA World Players of the Year. His pace are mesmerizing. Unlike the other players who was at least held the title once, they don't actually performed what the football fan expected. With those said, Messi alone can't win a World Cup. But at least the Argentine aren't too depend on him. World Cup wasn't like a domestic league where every week, there are at least two to three games in a week for the same team where form can be built every games he play. One may say 'Form is temporary, class are permanent'.
