I Do Feel Good, I Do!

I mean, it has been an Arse-less weekend after all. But all in all, there's been at least two things to be pleased about. First of course, is Man U's goal-fest at Blackburn. Just shows how great they are when Rooney isn't playing. Just excellent. I know Chelski will be happiest, but we can be slightly happy too - even if it helps only in the race for second place for now. A win against Spurs on Wednesday and we'll be pretty nicely placed. Yes, it's too early to do anything than knocking wood, but Spurs' 2-0 loss to Pompey will be a great way to end the weekend too. If there's any relevance left in the FA Cup, I suppose it is pretty useful in giving the likes of Pompey fans something to really scream about. Just poetic. Good for them, and good for Spurs. My heart will be out for Pompey in the finals.

Elsewhere, in the realms of fantasy fiction, there're a few bits and pieces about concering Cesc, and this time, Manciti. This is where it gets absurd. Really. If he's going to leave us, and that may be a real possibility, then why he would choose Manciti over Bartha is beyond me. But who knows. The likes of the those who write in the tabloids for a living and those who write about Manciti are beyond me.

I want to get back to that silly thing of a few days ago about Carlos Vela losing his passport. Remember I'd wondered why he wasn't on the plane to Bartha when Eduardo was? Well, we have our answer. But this does raise some really interesting questions/propositions. First, I say for the money that we pay these dudes, clubs from now on must be the sole repositories of the passports for these idiots. Second, let's say he's realised he's lost his passport - which probably means he can't fly, since there may be some form of passport control, but shit. Wenger should've just made the idiot drive from London to Bartha. I'm pretty sure he'd be able get there without his passport. And who cares if he gets caught? He'd just get repatriated, whereupon he can get a new passport done up in Mexico City. Third, now apart from someone getting injured - that brings up a whole new yummy avenue for covert passport-related action. I mean, how nice it'd be if 2 hours before take-off to London, our old Argentinian friend Lionel Messi realises that he's "lost" his passport??? Mmmmmm. Quite possible, that one.

Finally, Clichy thinks English clubs should have a Christmas break. I say hell no. Footie every three days between Christmas and New Year is just great. What we need to do is get rid of the Carling Cup, and rationalise the FA Cup with a proper system of seeding. In place of the Carling Cup, allow teams to field Team Bs in the lower leagues. More on that next time.

Gonna watch some golf now.
