When we are shit we really are shit…

An astonishingly lazy and uninspired performance from Arsenal today saw them lose their first game of the season. And with all due respect to Arsene Wenger, he must not use the 4 away games in a row as an excuse. And to not blame it on the absence of the four players that have been at the heart of Arsenal this season (Flamini, Fabregas, Hleb, van Persie – my favourite players on OleOle.com) is also stupid. I know he doesn’t want to say to the players like Gilberto, Diarra, Eduardo and the pathetic Eboue (I am starting to hate his nastiness and diving more and more each day) cannot do the job, but that is the fuckin’ truth!!! Gilberto is just too rusty and together with Diarra they have exactly ZERO creativity between them at the moment. Eduardo just cannot seem to play for Arsenal the way he plays for Croatia.

Since the last two of the four injured (Flamini and Hleb) had to leave the field due to injury during the Aston Villa game, to say that Arsenal have struggled is an understatement which I cannot make with a clean conscience: the fact that the Villa game was won was down to pure luck, the draw against Newcastle that followed was a fair result (Adebayor did have a fleeting moment of brilliance there), and now these games have culminated in a loss against a team that was third from bottom before the game. Fuck!

Next game (after CL) is at home against the Chukchas. I really hope that at least two of the injured players come back: the rest of the team just does not have the spirit without them (and that for the first time this season includes Gallas and Toure who seem to have lost all of their confidence lately).

Hiddink is one lucky SOB

After completely blowing the big chance against Israel last week and just barely beating Andorra today, one would think that Russia were out of EURO 2008. Thankfully there is an even more useless team in their group that managed to lose to Croatia at home. Hence, England – OUT, Russia – IN. And Hiddink is way too lucky.

Зенит – ЧЕМПИОН!!!

For those of you who do not speak Russian this means that the team from the city of my birth – Zenit Peterburg – has won the Russian championship this season. It is the first time that happened in Russia (the team won the USSR championship once back in 1984). I am quite happy for them.
