How was the whipping, shameless Chelsea fans ?!!

It was disgusting. It was shame for football to see a footballer, getting booed with every touch of the ball, for no fault of his. Wayne Bridge, after being betrayed by his ex chelsea  and england teammate John Terry, had already been thru an emotional turmoil. Here he was today,in Manchester city Vs Chelsea game, facing the same Terry, who had no remorse for sleeping with his teammate's wife, and stripped of his England captaincy for the same. Bridge had just announced yesterday that he was not going to take part in the world cup as he couldnt play with Terry in the side. After all this, u couldnt be excused if u didnt feel for this guy, who had just been thru a rough patch, betrayed by his wife, best friend-teammate, pulling out of his dream- playing in world cup for England.

Not the Chelsea fans ! they just booed and booed whenever he touched the ball  and cheered whenever Terry touched the ball. It was disgusting to see the football fans reduced to moral bankruptcy.
But what a response it was from Manchester City ! After going a goal down in the 40th minute, they came back strongly to finish the match 4-2 .
Yes, the same Manchester City, who had not scored at Stamford Bridge since 2000 and not done a DOUBLE against Chelsea since 1958 !!!
What a way to make it memorable day for Wayne Bridge and all the neutrals watching !!!

Ronaldo wishes u a Happy new year !!!

The way football should be watched !

Came across this while reading an article and thought of sharing it.

Ask pretty much anybody to describe England's third goal against Holland in Euro 96, and they will speak of Teddy Sheringham dummying to shoot, then opening his body and laying the ball off for Alan Shearer to smash a controlled slice past Edwin van der Sar and into the top corner. Which is fine, in as much as Sheringham's lay-off demonstrated a fine awareness of his surroundings, great unselfishness and a deft touch, but the move began far earlier, and was glorious in its entirety.

Tony Adams won possession, anticipating and intercepting after Ronald de Boer had miscontrolled a Michael Reiziger clearance. He strode forward, before letting Paul Gascoigne take over 10 yards inside the Dutch half. He switched the ball left for Darren Anderton, and then received the return just in from the left touchline. As Clarence Seedorf closed him down, he rolled the ball back with the sole of his boot, creating room for a jabbed ball inside to Steve McManaman, who played an exquisite chipped return, arcing the ball over Reiziger and into Gascoigne's path as he made a forward charge. Gascoigne showed great strength to hold off Aron Winter, barrelling into the box and drawing Danny Blind before stabbing the ball back with the outside of his right foot to Sheringham, who sensed Johan De Kock closing in and pushed the ball right to Shearer.

The point is that every bit of the move was brilliant, and McManaman's chip to Gascoigne was a technically harder thing to do and displayed greater vision and imagination even than Sheringham's lay-off. But it is forgotten because of television's habit of focusing on the money shot."

Watch the goal from 3:55 in the video :

Beckford Nightmare at the 'Theatre of Dreams' !!!

The unthinkable has just happened. Third tier strugglers Leeds United have just beaten Premier League champions Manchester United in their own backyard in the third round of the FA cup. While everyone is still coming to terms with the result, this has to go down as one of the greatest shocks in the FA cup's 128 year illustrious history.
The Leeds United manager had just said before coming to Old Trafford that his team will play with 'no fear' despite being 40 positions down in the league table compared to Man Utd. And thats what they did, their early momentum resulting in a goal by Breckford, what pleasure it might have given him, being a born Leeds United fan and now a player, to score against their greatest rivals in the 'theatre of dreams' ! well, he just ended the FA cup dream for Man United this season !
The romance of the cup is still very much on  !!!

The next big thing - Aaron Ramsey

I just cant stop admiring this guy.
Mark my words- He is gonna be the next big thing in premier league, with the likes of Cesc Fabregas, in another 2 seasons or earlier.
It is a treat to watch him play with such confidence and silky touches and passes and he can shoot from distance too !
I think he has an important role to play during the current season for Arsenal and he is just 19 years old !
Come on Aaron !

Best moments of 2009
