Arsenal Vs Malaysia 2012

This time around saya lambat sikit pergi stadium. After kerja balik rumah dulu, lepas magrib baru gerak.

Sampai Bukit Jalil dalam 8.30. Jem. Pusing-pusing cari parking je dah berapa puluh minit. Last last park dekat belakang Shell opposite Endah Parade. Then jalan kaki pegi stadium. Pukul 9.15 baru duduk dlm stadium. hahaha. Semput jugak la bagi orang yang kurang stamina ni :P

view from where I sit sebab dtg lambat

Saya tak banyak amik gambar. And apparently saya tak boleh pun upload gambar sebab kalau upload gambar dekat rumah ni gambar akan distorted, tak tau kenape. So malas da nak upload. Lets just sum everything up in points.

• Attendance rasanya 30% less than last year. sebab bulan puasa.
• Boleh tak sapa sapa tolong buat rules supaya vuvuzela tu di restrict dari stadium lepas ni. Seriously, I think the noise is killing the fun jugak. Orang bersorak tak dengar, MC bercakap tak dengar, Wenger cakap time training xdengar, even sembang dengan member sebelah pun tak dengar. I'd rather hear all the sorak, crowd chanting, kompang and everything rather than hearing the annnoying buzzing sound all the way until the end of the game. Last time ada jugak bila player masuk, MC sebut nama player and all the crowd sambung with their last name. This time sebab terlampau bising only one side of the stadium je yang sorak.
• Frust sebab Vermaelen main 1st half je. But it warms my heart to see him as the squad Captain.:)
• SZCZ tak main langsung.T_T
• Player Mesia no 7 tu memang every time lawan Arsenal mesti kena injured and kena usung keluar naik stretcher eh? Last year pun camtu jugak rasanya
• Tapi Arsenal pun dah terikut main macam Malaysia.
• Goal Amir Muslim memang smart.tahniah2.:P
• Walaupun happy tengok first goal Mesia, I'm truly and honestly risau takut Arsenal kalah semalam.hahaha
• Eisfield tu nampak macam Jenkinson versi kecik.:D
• Diaby dah macam membajak tanah stadium bukit jalil.
• Santos sangat sporting masa training, he seems to love the attention. Siap tunjuk skill lagi.
• Gunnersaurus pun sporting, rajin dia menari-nari keliling stadium sambil lambai-lambai kat crowd.:P
• Kalini saya xnampak da fan yang datang stadium pakai jersey team lain.hahaha

The atmosphere might be less exciting than last year, but all and all still puas hati. 

Dapat pergi both training and match walaupun sejak 2 hari lepas bizi gila dekat opis. 

Nak stalk diorang dekat airport and hotel tak dapat sebab still baru kat opis, belum berani lagi nak amik cuti. hehehe

bile nak amik gmbr dpan Emirates Stadium pulak ye.=P

So now we wait for the new season.

Whoever leaves, let them be, those who stays, we very much appreciate it.

I want Vermaelen for the captaincy and Song for the vice!
(^_^)

What the hell??

*Blood tears*

Euro Talk: Group Stage

To be honest, kalau korang fan EPL, agak slow sikit nak ikut  international matches, sebab your original players yang korang support dalam team EPL korang dah spread ke bermacam negara, so for me, mana ade player Arsenal saya tengok. Euro ni bagus sebab, sementara tunggu season EPL baru start, atleast ada game bola untuk ditengok malam-malam.=P

Croatia
Tiada player Arsenal.
Kalau cakap Croatia je ingat Davor Suker World Cup 1998. Sekarang dah takde player yang betul-betul menyerlah. Player yang familiar (for me) Modric, Srna, Jelavic, Kranjcar. Oh and Eduardo. So far tempat kedua in Group C. Tapi saya still rasa Spain and Italy yang akan move on to the next stage.

Czech Republic
Arsenal Player: Tomas Rosicky(Captain)
Selain Rosicky, diorang ada Petr Cech(Chelsea) dan Milan Baros(Galatasaray) yang lain saya tak tahu sangat. Pilar antara player dorang yang menyerlah Euro kalini, dah 2 game dia score. Sekarang di tangga kedua group A, sekali dengan Russia, Poland dan Greece. Semua ada player Arsenal kecuali Greece. So sapa2 masuk knock out stage pun saya tak kisah.hehe

Rosicky and Arshavin during Russia Czech match.

Denmark
Arsenal Player: Nicklas Bendtner
Pun bakal terkeluar dari Group B Sebab saya nak Germany dan Netherlands yang go through! hahaha

England
Arsenal Player: Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlaide-Chamberlain
Yang ni tricky. I love those 2 Arsenal players. Tapi dalam team tu jugak ada Rooney..T_T Terry, Joe Hart, Ashley Cole, lescott.. LESCOTT..*nangis*

Walaupun my feeling about England is meh..tapi bila tengok impact Walcott bila dimasukkan as a sub ganti Milner semalam, somehow saya rasa sangat bangga. Puas hati. Haha. bak kata Roy Hodgson, 
"I can say I made the right decision because he scores one and he made one."

Then credit jugak to Welbeck sebab creative utilize kan Walcott punya cross.
And I do think Walcott deserves that, dia pun selalu kena critic dengan his international team. It's about time he prove he can do something for his country. Bagus untuk confidence dia bila season EPL baru start nanti.hehe
Saya pun tak kisah sangat England through ke next stage atau tak..Tapi macam France and England yang akan through dalam Group D ni.

Bouchra still the hottest. Even from the back.=P

France
Arsenal Player: Laurent Koscielny
 Lama dah tak sokong France sejak zaman Henry,Trezeguet, Zidane,Pires,Petit Viera. Just to name a few.
Sekarang tak suka, sebab ada Na$ri, Evra. Tapi ada Cabaye dengan Ben Arfa. Tapi tak kisah la..Diorang confirm through punya.

Germany
Arsenal Player: Per Mertesacker and Lukas Podolski
Germany is the clear favorite in this tournament. Semua star star belaka.
So I hope to see agood match. Kalau menang bagus, tak menang pun okay. Dorang memang dah sedia bagus.=D

Greece
Arsenal Player: None
Team yang saya ingat sebab nama player yang unik. Player lebih kurang sama masa World Cup 2010 dulu. Gekas is one of the player yang saya ingat previous previous punya world cup pun dia dah ada. Maybe wont pass the group stage.

Italy
Arsenal Player:None

Dulu time world cup player Italy semua tough mens. Skarang pun ada tough man Balotelli *roll eyes* Cannavaro,Quagliarela, Camoranesi semua dah xde. So..saya tak kisah.

My world Cup 2010 Italian crush.=P

Netherlands
Arsenal Player: Robin Van Persie
Sayang, banyak star, tapi takde chemistry. Robben selfish, Schneider senyap, Affelay tak menjadi, Robin pun tak dapat banyak chance..but I still wish somehow game malam esok lawan Portugal, dorang boleh menang besar, and go through next round. hahaha tinggi cita-cita.:P

Holland WAGS: 

Winona DeJong (left), Sabia Boulahrouz and Bouchra Van Persie (right). 

Makan ape la Bouchra ni cantik betul.❤❤

Poland
Arsenal Player: Wojciech Szczesny
Szcz had a rough start, kena straight red, but I think if they pull it together plus semangat co-host, Poland boleh go through next stage dengan Russia. Saya belum puas lagi tengok Szcz dalam Euro.

Portugal
Arsenal Players:None
Please, tolongla KALAH lawan Netherlands malam esok.=D

Russia
Arsenal Player: Andrei Arshavin (Captain)
Other notable players: Zhirkov, Pavlyuchenko,Pogrebnyak.
Arshavin has been crucial to his country this Euro. Different with his time with Arsenal last season. So incase next season Arshavin dah tak main dengan Arsenal, I want to see him stay longer in this tournament.

Ireland
Arsenal Player:None
Kinda already out of the tournament.

Spain
Arsenal Players: None
Another team full of stars.

The Reigning Champion

I don't want them to win this time. No reason at all. Really. No reason. *evil laugh*=D

Sweden
Arsenal Player: None
This is not zaman Sweden masa ada Larsson(Henrik) and Ljunberg. As much as I used to love Ibrahimovic, he couldn't sail the ship alone. Mungkin keluar awal jugak.

Ukraine
Arsenal Player: None
Another co-host. Walaupun tak banyak player terkenal, (Kecuali Shevchenko)tapi semangat co-host maybe boleh pull them through. But I still think France and England yang akan move on.

Tournament kali ni takde sotong atau apa-apa haiwan lain yang akan guess sape akan menang. So mari kita predict sendiri. Saya predict Netherlands!

Hahaha yes.masih in denial. saya tak peduli!
Cepat habiskan Euro and back to EPL! hehe
So itu sahaja bebelan saya.
do widzenia!~

Super Sunday

Manchester City 1 - 0 Arsenal

Well that was one of the 'satisfying' lost I've seen this season.

It was a great game. 

Kalah pun puas hati.

I wore the red jersey proudly today.

I do believe that's a penalty there.
But it's okay, football is all about the refs making shitty decisions anyway. 

This is Captain Hero

He was denied by Joe Hart(and the assistant ref) last night.

This is Vice Captain Hero

He's been denied thrice by Joe Hart last night.

One was a rather tame header earlier in the match and two shocker from outside the box at end.

When he goes forward he's as good as any of the strikers - MOTD commentator.

 This is Hero SZCZ

He denied Baloteli and Kun and all those ugly lot.

and This.

is Joe Hart.

That was his expression after Vice Captain Hero's shot was few inches wide at the end of the match.

And I tip my fancy hat to this guy.

Man City 1- 0 Arsenal : dissapointment but no shame - Arseblog.

SZCZ and the Captain

Arsenal 1 - 0 Everton

Emirates Stadium

Arsenal 125 Anniversary

Nothing to say here.

SZCZ knew that left foot can do wonders..:P

Looks like RVP is in a clear path to surpass Henry's record for goals per calendar year and of course Alan Shearer's as well.

(^_^)

Cuteness overload

Hi all, meet Theo, his favorite team is Arsenal.

Yes, you are a very good boy indeed..
..but why do you have to be so adorable???

I want to be a stewardess!

......just for a day....=P

Hey miss, switch place will ya?

(^_^) 

Did you know who the heck they are miss?? 

DID YOU KNOW HOW LUCKY YOU ARE???

cozy

*basks*

Welcome to my home Mr. Wenger!

(^_^)

Conclusion

pada masa saya menulis ni, Arsenal dah pun ketinggalan 3-1 dengan Stokes City di Britannia Stadium. Match belum habis. Tapi the whole season dah pun berakhir bagi Arsenal.  kalau siang tadi saya looking forward nak tgk match Manu Chelsea. Sekarang dah tak lagi. xde makna

season ni ada highest high dan lowest low. ada match yang sangat membanggakan dan ada beberapa yang teramatlah perit untuk diterima.

Of course 7 kekalahan dan beberapa draw sepanjang season semuanya menyakitkan hati.

Tapi yang PALING menyakitkan hati,

• Vs West Brom 2-3
• Vs Tottenham Hotspurs 2-3
• dan of course Carling Cup final Vs Birmingham.. 1-2  (My heart just dropped by just writing this..)

Oh Tuhan..
lebih kurang sama sakit dia macam sakit gigi dan period pain..T__T..

Tapi ada juga match yang menyenangkan hati macam..

• Vs ManCity 3-0
• Vs Chelsea 3-1
• Vs ManUtd 1-0
• and of course Vs BARCELONA 2-1

Oh Tuhan..
happy dia lebih drpd happy nampak Mr F dekat mamak FCM atau FOE atau mana2 lah.....(^__^)
(Mr F adalah some lecturer who I used to have a huge crush on=P)

Point is, team yang ada sekarang, sangat inconsistent. 
Diorang siap ada pattern lagi

• kalau dah leading 2-0 pun belum tentu menang. Siap kena risau akan dikejar balik oleh opponent dan seterusnya draw atau kalah 3-2.
• once arsenal score, most probably team lawan akan score balik dalam masa 10 hingga 30 saat.
• walaupun control possesion kaw2..xmustahil boleh kalah at the end.
• semua keeper team lain, even keeper from team yang bawah dalam leauge table akan tiba2 cemerlang gemilang terbilang bila lawan dgn arsenal.
• goal dari set pieces.

Dulu saya hanya akan takut kalau Arsenal bakal lawan dengan Chelsea atau ManUtd. Kalau team lain saya boleh confidently cakap,"Ala,takpe tu. Confirm leh menang"

Tapi sekarang even lawan dgn team bawahan macam Wolves atau Blackpool pun saya takut. Tiada sense of security di situ.
Dulu, masa zaman Henry,Pires Bergkamp Ljunberg semua, once Arsenal dah score, habis la team lain. Mmg xde harapan.

Tapi sekarang..

dan everytime Arsenal kalah ada je suara2 yg akan ulang benda sama tuding jari sana sini,mostly antara reason dia

• defender
• goal keeper
• manager
• low mental strength
• defender
• DEFENDER

Saya tak kisah...this is part of the process, satu2 team tak berjaya overnight..

Wenger is not the problem. For me, sape2 yang suruh/mahu satu2nye manager yang dah manage satu2nya team yang go through the whole season UNBEATEN dalam abad ni untuk resign memang tak waras. Sorry to say. If there's somebody to be blamed, its the player.

Simple je. Anggaplah Wenger ni macam bapak kita. Bapak kita pun manusia. Dia tak perfect. Tapi macamana pun, that imperfect man is still our freakin father!! Siapa lagi yang akan support kalau bukan anak sendiri.

Tapi saya tetap mahu summer ni dia beli quality defender.
Memanglah ini team effort, individual quality xmenjamin apa2 kalau dia tak boleh connect dengan teammates dia. Tapi thats the least they can do, no harm trying. Bukan takda duit. ADA. Saya pun xsuka concept beli player2 bagus jadikan satu team. Saya suka philosophy Wenger yang train youngsters. Some of them dah terbukti pun bagus, cuma ia makan masa. In the mean time masih perlu beli satu dua defender yang experienced. Beli yang perlu tak salah, its not against the philosophy. Kita bukan beli accessory, kita nak beli necessity.
Bagus juga kalah malam ni. Wenger akan jadi lagi pasti untuk beli somebody soon.(Hopefully..)

Arsenal perlu lagi satu atau dua Sagna. Vermaelen kena sihat walafiat,kita perlu better Djourou dan better Koscielny,walaupun  xmenentu, tp jgn lupa, diorg pernah tame kan Barcelona dan Man Utd. defender muda kita Gibbs perlu banyak game. Dan dekat reserves kita ada Ignasi Miquel. Memang masih awal. Tapi cukup untuk kita tau, kalau kita dapat sign beberapa quality defender, akan berguna untuk our yougsters in the future.

Saya tidak risau pasal Forward dan midfield department. Kita ada ramai players yg versatile yg boleh main banyak posisi. kita ada midfielder yg creative2 dan kita ada banyak quality  youngster. Wellington, Lansbury,Frimpong, dan Ryo Miyaichi on the way. Banyak. Saya tdak risau. Sebab itu bukan masalah.

Tentang Szczesny. I love that kid. He should be our number one. We don't need new keeper. He's feisty and he has a strong quality. He has a little bit of Lehmann in him(a good bit,not a bad bit). The kid's still young and still learning and is doing a great job at that. He just need a good defenders in front of him. And Arsenal keeper should be from an Arsenal brand. Behind him, we already have Fabianski, and Almunia(or not) and that kid James Shea. we're enough in that department.

I just thought that sometimes beberapa player main dengan kurang bersemangat, termasuk lah Fabregas. Fabregas season ni tak lagi on fire macam season2 lepas, thats why I said blame the players, if the manager beli Messi pun, kalau main xbersemangat, xjadi apa2.

I'm not going to name names, siapa yang tak bagus, siapa yang patut dijual,  sebab diorang semua berada di Arsenal in the first place sebab Wenger see something in them, maknanya they used to have some good qualities in them, its just the matter of how they present themselves after that..

Point is, diorang kena play as a team, love the team, love the game, dan bersemangat untuk EVERY game. I used to see these players do that, and I want them to do it more often.
I love this sets of players, I love the tactical, we need a replacement for Pat Rice and maybe a better medics team, I want Vermaelen to be back and Fabregas to sort out his problems. Few good defenders and we're good to go.

But then again, it is all my personal OPINION. I might be wrong, I might not. This is a free country. I'm entitled to speak.and so do other people.

Saya tak kata Arsenal hebat team lain tidak atau team lain hebat dan Arsenal tidak, I just LOVE Arsenal and thats it. I will always look forward to their games until God knows when.. Whatever people says. Whatever Wenger do. I don't want Wenger to go. I know he'll figure something out. So, off season 10/11 waiting for season 11/12. Can't wait to see what will happen this summer. Soon.
