Weekend Sights

Hello people, Happy new year. I am glad to be back and trust me I’ve missed you more than you’ve missed me. Hope you had a good weekend? I am not quite sure I did but I will tell you what I saw...

Finally, Happy new year…

Losing three games in a row is probably not something most united fans are used to seeing, but 2014 greeted the united supporters with zero points from 6 and a defeat in the capital one cup first leg. The banner that shows David Moyes face as the chosen one brings up the debate of if he was chosen to take united up or down. The united fans finally got to see 3 points and no goal conceded as Swansea returned to Old Trafford, a week after Kicking united out of the FA Cup. It is clear to see that with a new year and the transfer window open, United need a midfield resolution...this weekend may have relaxed some fans but with Chelsea away next Sunday....don't say I didn't warn you.



SAS returns…

Imagine Usain Bolt asking for more speed, in my opinion, that would be beyond greed. The most inform striker, by name Luis Suarez got a late new year’s present, the return of Daniel Sturridge. Suarez had already scored before Sturridge was on the pitch but the telepathic understanding between both strikers doesn't seem to want to end and the rest of the league may just suffer from it. They both managed to score and both strikers assisting the other in their goals...must be a long night as a defender, knowing that your next game would be against the SAS.



Hot on Top, hot at the bottom.

The relegation battle in the premier league actually shows how wonderful the league is. There are 5 points between 12th place and the last team in 20th.I personally think that trophies should be given to those who stay up at the end of the season because it is as nerve racking as the fight for the premier league title. The most joyful fans would have to be the Hammers, after humiliating cup defeats, they welcomed back Andy Carroll and got 3 points away to Cardiff. It is going to be a long long fight for premier league status but at least it’s hot both ways...




What really is Offside?

I know that if we stay on this topic, a lot of trees would have to be cut down because we can go on and on and still not have enough books to take down the explanation of what offside really is. The Newcastle v Man city game had a perfectly good goal ruled out because of some interpretation of an offside...Tiote hit the ball sweetly after a corner from Newcastle, the ball takes a slight deflection from a Man city player and goufrann avoids the ball and it goes in the back of the net. The assistant referee gives it as a goal and the referee says it’s a goal kick, try imaging that especially with my explanation....haha but I think a new set of laws for offside should be made or scrap the law and let football end up having rugby score lines…





Who will be crowned footballer of the year?


Well ideally, we will find out Monday 13th of January and I think Ronaldo should get some tissues because even as Messi has been injured, it might just go to Ribery. I might be wrong and Ronaldo might finally win it. but if he doesn't....well they say women always like men who cry..I think



In more words to come...sabi boi
