Football Updates
After about two week international games, all players returned to clubs either with more strong confidence as Bellamy, or with unfortunate broken ankle as Kuyt, or, most of them, with extremely fatigue as Pirlo. Hard to blame UEFA or clubs, but too tight play schedule and far from enough med monitoring/treatment are the main reason result in heavy injuries.
This week in Premiership, Arsenal and Man U. stay on their track, while Chelsea got a real bloody win because they lost their two brilliant goalies in one match. Reading has some reputation of tough team especially for a home match, in today's game Reading's players hit Chelsea's goalie heavily but did not even get a yellow card! Cudicini maybe cover soon, but Cech... is still in UCI now
BEST WISHES FOR CECH ♥ but Lampard scored by a free kick.
FA should take some action on stricken rules for faults and cards, otherwise only few players can survive from those tough games :-(

Terry was the goalie during last additional time. Captain, Bravo!


Arsenal Vs. Watford
Well i didn't watch the game. You know why!
But they won 3-0 over Watford. OWWW my baby Cesc must be so happy recently. And my next england hero THEO WALCOTT become a starter! owh im so proud. So far, Arsenal ranks 5 with 16pts.
Fabregas - 8 - Unusually for Cesc there were quite a few misplaced passes from him in the first half, however he almost scored a great goal after rounding the keeper but fired into the side netting. After the break he ran the show & confirmed what a fantastic player he is & with the boss saying there is more to come I am licking my lips in anticipation.
Walcott - 7 - Played on the left & his pace worried Watford for the 64 minutes he was on the pitch. Cut in nicely to curl a shot just wide of the top corner towards the end of the first half. Plays with a belief & a maturity beyond his 17 years. (Hleb 64) Arsenal v Watford - Player Ratings


Man of the match : Thiery Henry
Sampdoria Vs. Milan
Milan's game was somehow out of luck. The lost point was due to miscommunication between CBs. And without Pirlo, they got some problems to hold ball properly in midfield. However the front line, including attacking midfielders and forwards did create a lot of opportunities to score, but just could not make an exciting finish :( So far, Milan ranks 12 with 4pts.
Other teams in Serie A also have problems, so not too worry about Milan's ranking :) but im worry about Yoann Gourcuff how long he'll be get injury? Well, wish he'll get back soon or move to EPL soon.hha.


Man of the Match: Pippo Inzaghi ♥
Liverpool Vs. Blackburn 1:1 at home is not exciting at all, but... one point is OK. Reds still could not find an efficient way to score. Good deliver from midfielders, and some amazing pass between wingers and forwards, but the last kick... Ah~~~ could not sent the ball into net. On the other hand, left wing-- it is my concerned point now. How many times the opposite players broke through defense from Reds' left wing in this season? Put Stevie there is definitely not a good answer. And what about put Luis Garcia and Mark Gonzalez in the same time to be a starter it'll be AWESOME duet tho.
So far, Liverpool ranks 10 with 11pts.
Theoretically, Liverpool can not win the Championship of Premiership this season :-(
Man of the Match: John Arne Riise
Euro Qualification
07/10 Grp F Sweden 2-0 Spain » crying~~~ Aragones, please go away. BTW, Xabi stayed on the bench all night. The Spaniards were awful when they passed the ball they always passed it to enemy. Only Fabregas did a great jod for passing things. I cant believe that Luis Garcia didn't have any opportunities to score he didn't even touch the ball with his own foots. And the number SEVEN who was belongs to Raul, David Villa wore it aiiii I hate Villa, he doesn't deserves it only Raul who deserves to wear lucky number seven, need a long time to wear it. Better to think twice Villa !!! Torres dived all nite long. ewww . . .
07/10 Grp B Scotland 1-0 France » shock. Group B is too complicate now. Scotland scored a goal that people didn't expect and notice that it was a goal.
07/10 Grp B Italy 2-0 Ukraine » Not bad, though Pippo sit on the bench most time, too. well, he was only sub in from 85'
07/10 Grp E England 0-0 F.Y.R. Macedonia » Stevie got two yellow cards :(
07/10 Grp A Portugal 3-0 Azerbaijan » C.Ronaldo scored two goals, great job! C. Ronaldo and Deco aww.
07/10 Grp G Bulgaria 1-1 Netherlands » still OK. I have faith in Marco :)
11/10 Grp E Croatia 2-0 England » not too surprised. England is short of holding midfielders and play with 2-5-3 pattern are so not.
11/10 Grp B Georgia 1-3 Italy » Italy really has great defenders/midfielders, almost any one of them can score :-) Pippo was sub in at 87', so only played for 5 minutes again. a good warm-up, I guess? and Cannavaro was sub by Matterazi and i almost cried when i saw that, what happened? i was so worry i even cant sleep that nite. But then i got the information that he requested to be substituted due to trouble with his left knee. thx god.
11/10 Grp B France 5-0 Faroe Islands » Saha is superb :) scored in the first minute.
11/10 Grp D Slovakia 1-4 Germany » Germany was crazy in the first half, they scored every 15 minutes :) and, oh~ Poldi
11/10 Grp A Poland 2-0 Portugal » Did not expect this result
11/10 Grp G Netherlands 2-1 Albania » Van Persie did great job recently :)
BTW, Spain and Argentina played a friendly today ; 2:1 Xavi scored first, followed by a penalty by Villa
HALF-TIME UPDATE: Score 1-1! Spain played way,way better than their previous match! They controlled the game really well. Xavi shot in the first goal at 32' and 2 mins after, Argentina equalized the scoreboard. Iniesta did amazing. Sergio was awesome too. So far, Spain's doing really, really well and they had many good shots/opportunities. Cesc, Xabi, Luis and Iker are on the bench, btw! Let's hope Spain gets in another ball in!
FULL-TIME UPDATE:Ok, SPAIN WON! 2-1! Spain DID get another ball in. It was a penalty won by Spain. Villa took it and it was a goal! Spain could have got in 4 goals in total but sadly, both were offside! One by Villa and one by Garcia. Xabi, Sergio and Villa (on the last min) were yellow-carded. Btw, Garcia substituted Torres, Xabi substituted Albelda (if I'm not wrong) and Cesc substituted Juanito(if I'm not wrong). Spain played a really good game in a long time.
If they keep up this energy and this good play, I'm sure they could do something pretty interesting in the next Euro Qualifier match!
CONGRATS, TEAM SPAIN!
