Manchester United 4 - Middlesborough 1
It's so nice to see the United's standings on the EPL table now although we are only there for 24 hours.
It was a thrilling match from the start.
Nani's goal. What can I say except WOW ? We'd really like to see more goals like that in the matches to come. I just hope he won't be put in the cold freezer for his elaborated celebration.
Our two small sized striker, getting better with every game. Rooney has been scoring consistenly in the last few matches and I'm glad Tevez is scoring goals to boost up his confidence.
Hargreaves was back from injury and I really like his style of playing. His aggresiveness in getting the ball back and tackles was a joy to watch. It's been some time since we saw this kind of display, not since the days of Roy Keane.
Ronaldo was abit quiet last night. Probably tired?
Anderson fitted in well, Pique had a late run replacing Ferdinand.
Overall, it looks like all our new signings are fitting well into the team.
I look forward to next weekend's showdown against Arsenal.
Top two teams, both playing so well. It will be a great match.

My dog is not GAY
In response to Tim's comments on my cats posting, I would like to stress that MY DOG IS NOT GAY !! At that time, he was still young lah. A few years after the incident, my ex's sister brought a box of kittens (abandoned) home and he had a marvelous time trying to get them out of the box by playfully gnawing their ears =)
He also has a gf he constantly visit and talk to whenever I bring him out for walks. It was a cute small brown maltese.
One time during the CNY period, he got pissed off with all the noise pollution from my aunties & uncles so he went out partying the whole night and met some female friends. Probably had a one night stand with some of them too.
Here's my charming dog @ 5 years old. He was not smiling coz it was taken right after his bath. He hates being clean.
Unfortunately he was dog-napped when he was 7 years old. I no longer have him with me.
Actually I can't be sure if he was dog-napped but I would prefer to think that way. Better than imagining him in an accident or shot by DBKL or worse, cooked by those "foreign" workers who was working at a nearby construction site.

Cats
I dont like cats. Especially black ones. There's a myth that if you see a black cat it's bad luck.
I don't find them friendly or loyal at all. They roam around day and night, where is the relationship bonding with their owners? You can't take them out for walks either, they like to climb things. Show offs...!! I think they're lazy, arrogant, proud & sort of evil. It's the look they have on their face, you know what i mean ?
There was this incident which heighten my dislike for them. I brought my puppy (he was 3 mths old) to the playground for a walk and let him have a free rein. 10 minutes later I saw him running back to me and there was this cat chasing after him. What the.....??! He was still loyal and brave enough to stand in front of me apparently trying to protect me but this cat was so much bigger size and kept hissing at my poor puppy who must be wondering why his "friend" makes funny noises. That time my puppy's bark was like a mouse , soft and high-pitched. I guess it didn't have any impact on her at all (Maybe she thought my puppy was a white cat)
Anyway, I tried to "shoo" the cat away but she was not afraid of me either. She kept wanting to claw at us and all the time hissing. WE KENA BULLIED !! In the end i had to throw a stone, not at her, but aiming at her direction to scare her away. She was pregnant lah, otherwise I would have thrown it directly at her.
Last nite, i was going up to bed when I heard some scratching noise outside. I turn on the lights and to my annoyance I saw this:
The nerve of that cat. Just lying on top of my car happily licking and "showering" itself. We stared at each other for a full 10 seconds. It continued to lie there and only went away SLOWLY after I threaten to go outside (just jingle the house keys abit).
See how arrogant and proud they are?
p/s: i dunt like kittens either but i'm ok with tigers & lions :)

Champions League Result

This week Champion's League matches produced some amazing result.
Ferdinand scoring again ? wow....!! he's on a roll and so is rooney & ronaldo....
i didn't watch the match and i still haven't check out Youtube to see the goals, abit bz these few days.
Arsenal gunned down Slavia Prague 7 - 0 .... whoa.... I wonder if they can get a similiar scoreline against Liverpool this weekend ? I am looking forward to the match.
The best news is Liverpool is almost out of the Champions League with one point from 3 matches. We can now stop hearing chants of "we are the best team in England & Europe with 5 European cups" for the next few days. As usual, they are unusually busy :D

Kimi Räikkönen is the CHAMPION
Kimi wins the F1 World Drivers' Championship !!
Who would have thought it possible besides the fans who keep assuring themselves that luck will be with Kimi on Sunday. It really happened!
I guess Hamilton lost coz his team mate Alonso was so eager to win himself that they nearly crashed into each other. Perhaps this show of unfriendliness caused Hamilton some shock that he lost concentration temporarily thereby causing his car a near engine failure and forcing him down to 18th position.
Massa was really sporting in the beginning to try and block Hamilton and let Kimi through. Even though they make it look like a pit stop strategy but we all know that with Massa up front, Kimi will obviously end up winning the race as he is fighting for the title.
I was beside myself during the race. Luckily I have Cheng Huat & Kian Ming on MSN. I keep asking them to calculate the points and we were all anxiously watching Hamilton's progress up the field.
In the end, it is a Ferarri 1 - 2., Hamilton let the title slip from his hands and Kimi is the World Champion.
Congratulations once again to the gorgeous Kimi Raikkonen :)

Aston Villa 1 - Manchester United 4

Goals by Rooney (2), Ferdinand, Giggs
What a wonderful midfield display ! For the first time this season I found nothing bad to say about Tevez, he was brilliant ! They are working well together. I particularly like those nice little 1 - 2 touches by Nani, Tevez, Giggs, Rooney & Scholes.
Rooney continued where he left with England. Too bad he didn't get his hattrick but he should save some energy for the Gunner's game in 2 weeks time. It will be a great game to watch, 2 teams playing so well.
The best thing about this match is it helped me win some $ !!! My first win with MU this season! I seldom bet on MU coz it's too emotional lah, imagine you see them losing and you urself lose money but sometimes emotions do get the best of me and even though i know they won't win I am still stubborn enough to place bets on them. A perfect example will be the MU v Milan match in last season's Champion's League. I didn't want to wake up at 3am to see them losing but this small, tiny, little hope candle was alight in my heart and I ended up watching the entire match, hoping till the final whistle that they can produce the miracle of 1999. Not only I lost my precious sleep, i lost $ (double whammed!) but all these can't be compared to the poo fans taunts:
"ha ha ha, champions in the domestic league but a mouse in europe"
(whatever the mouse means, no mood to decipher the meaning)
"let liverpool show you how to play at europe lah. We are after all the 5 times WINNERS"
(yeah, got thrashed by Milan didnt they? )
"You think ur team is like us, can comeback like we did at Istanbul ? It will be a repeat of Istanbul ! We will be the WINNER. Your MU can take the cheap league title, the europe cup is more important, more prestigious more bla bla bla"
(If i have to hear the ISTANBUL word again .......!)
