Weird Things Happening

14 03 2007

Well it was a normal day in my life when I needed to go to Shuwaikh to fix my car. Well when we were there, I stumbled upon the scooby doo van “The Mystery Machine”, I was like SWEEEET MOTHER OF !! @_@ Unfortunately I was too busy and in a hurry to take a photo :(. Next day I looked all over Shuwaikh to find it… not there 😦

Since I quit WOW I have had nothing to do these days except go to the gym and eat. Well today I havent done jack shit and was very bored :). Then I found these videos and remembered a lot of things. It was a friendly between AC MILAN and KUWAIT (not the club) First of all, πŸ™‚ I went to this game πŸ˜› but missed the AC Milan and AL ARABI + AL QADSIA game which to my memory…was like 6 – 0 to Milan lol.

This is just hilarious lol (btw I know its not real πŸ˜‰ )

This is for the Kuwait National Team fanatics and guys who love the past… and btw reforming the national team is a lost cause πŸ˜›

  • What was weird is that for some reason I found the studio review for the game with some highlights πŸ˜› (waaaaaaaaaaaay b4 my time πŸ™‚ ), also I saw like highlights of this controversy in FIFA FEVER πŸ™‚ under “CONTROVERSY” so its the first time I have seen the full version.

This is my favorite πŸ˜€ WHAT A GOAL πŸ™‚ !!





El Clasico Review

13 03 2007

Prior to the Madrid team bus rolling into the Camp Nou compound, a draw would have been very much acceptable, considering the lengthy injury list and all the lackluster performances they’ve been putting in every second week.

In fact, it would have been greeted as a decent result whatever the scoreline, as long as the men in white didn’t make fools of themselves on the pitch like they have done so quite a few times already this season.

But as the match progressed, expectations started to change dramatically. As soon as Real drew first blood in the 5th minute, settling for a draw went straight out the electrifying Nou Camp window. Then came Messi’s goal in which wasent really enough for the whites.

Even though Messi scored the drawing goal twice, the momentum and the advantage was very much white in colour thanks to Oleguer’s early trip to the shower right at the end of half time.

That sending off proved to be the critical point of the match as the two teams came back out for the second half with very different mentalities. The tables had turned now that Barca were playing for a draw and Madrid were shooting for a win. And when Sergio Ramos headed Los Blancos ahead for the third time with a little over 15 minutes to go, surely a draw wasn’t acceptable anymore. It became a match that they simply had to win.

But in typical Madrid fashion this season, they could not close it out. Thus Real Madrid lie at 4th place with 5 points between both Sevilla and Barcelona and 2 from Valencia. Lucky Real Madrid get Valencia and Sevilla at home but taken into consideration the home record the whites have had this season, does not necessarily mean that Real will have an easy break. In realmadrid.com’s words “14 games, 14 finals”.

Champions League Draw

9 03 2007

To think that Real Madrid would have been in the draw is very disappointing cause they got lucky in the last 16 but Madrid are in a habit of losing chances that are literally given to them. Anyways there are 3 rematches as we can see which are Milan and Bayern and if both Chelsea and Liverpool win their respectable ties they would face each other for the freakin 3rd year!! Also if Liverpool and AC Milan win their ties they would face each other and the 2005 final is reborn πŸ™‚ Roma and Man U doesn’t really ring a bell but it looks like it will be entertaining.

Predictions:

Milan x Bayern

Milan to go through very easily for some reason I have this feeling and their form aint bad and I believe they can do it.

PSV x Liverpool

Liverpool to go through penalties as I do not want to underestimate PSV because they can do the impossible sometimes.

Roma x Man U

Man U to go through but barely because Roma wont hold back as to my knowledge they havent been this far in a long time and also I dont think they ever lifted the CL trophy.

Chelsea x Valencia

I cant really predict this because both are there and not this season. Not really consistent as Chelsea were a little shaky against Porto and Valencia in the Liga and were a little lucky against Inter so to take a shot in the dark I would say Chelsea being a favorite to advance.





Sad Roberto Carlos quits Real

9 03 2007

Roberto Carlos has announced that he will leave Real Madrid at the end of the season. The 33-year-old left back has come in for fierce criticism for his recent performances, and confirmed he would not sign a new contract.

This was very expected from Carlos as this was his worst 2 seasons ever in my mind. First the World Cup goal now the fastest goal in the Champions League. I would like him to stay but I dont see a place for him now and I think the time is right for him to leave as an elite rather than an old forgotten player. Marcelo should take his place but Capello dosent seem to like him because in a lot of games we needed him. Roberto Carlos will always have a place in all Madridistas hearts and will never be forgotten. Much like Zidane, everyone feels something is missing in the team and its hard to forget a player of his prestige. The day Carlos leaves will be a very sad day and I am not really looking forward to it. 😦 Bear in mind this was expected unlike Beckham and Zidane.





Havent been postin much…

Well the title says most of this post but anyways lemme sum up everything that has been happening in my life and in obviously Real Madrid…Let me start with my life, well I got accepted in 2 universities (one of them is pic above) and 1 college and I am very proud of myself as I didnt really have a good start to high school but hamdillah I got my reward for my efforts in the past years. Other than that, there hasent been things that are that interesting in my life :P.

OK now to Real Madrid. Basically Capello is screwing us very badly and is expecting the sack…I still think he has a chance but as i said in past posts changing the management will just make the problem worse. Ronaldo left to Milan and in his top form noticeably that Capello didnt play him at all. We exited the Champions League in a very embarrassing way with the fastest goal in the CL ever and constant injury woes. I think if Becks and Reyes were playing we would have had a chance but thats the past so lets let bygones be bygones…lets focus on the remaining games as Madrid have to win ALL of them and I mean ALL if they want to win La Liga.

I think now that I am in the 2nd semester of Senior year I would have more time to post but now I went back to my gym so I will post only when I find or see something interesting. Thank you for reading this post … πŸ™‚ wait for more πŸ˜‰

Autism is classified by the World Health Organization and American Psychological Association as a developmental disability that results from a disorder of the human central nervous system. It is diagnosed by impairments to social interaction, communication, interests, imagination and activities. However, the causes, symptoms, etiology, treatment and other issues are controversial. (wikipedia)

The 6th annual Autism Charity Bazaar is here πŸ™‚ . The Kuwait Center For Autism is holding its annual Charity Bazaar and it will be held from Tuesday through Thursday (13 to 15th), at 10 am to 1 pm and from 5 pm to 9 pm throughout those three days. Show your support and try to pay them a visit. Its for a good thing, and they have worked hared into getting this together (believe me they did πŸ™‚ ) and btw I made the tags πŸ™‚ they were on short notice but I did what I could πŸ˜‰ .

Here is the brochure and hope to see you there πŸ˜€





In your face Capello!!

11 02 2007

Once again Beckham proves critics wrong as he and Van Nistelrooy seal Real Madrid’s comeback. Well lets not rush this πŸ™‚ we have Barca in like 3 games or something like that so we better be ready for Getafe and Athletico Madrid as both are worthy contenders…anyways not much to talk about the game so ill leave you with the highlights:





Vicente del Bosque – Is he the solution?

6 02 2007

Vicente del Bosque is well known for coaching Real Madrid from 1999-2003, its most successful period in recent history, and as a result, makes him arguably one of the illustrious club’s most successful coaches of all time. In his four seasons in charge Del Bosque lead the club through its most successful spell in modern history, having steered the club to two UEFA Champions League titles in 2000 and 2002, two domestic titles La Liga in 2001 and 2003, a Spanish Supercup in 2001, a European Supercup in 2002, the Intercontinental Cup in 2002 as well as being runners up in a host of other competitions including the FIFA Club World Championship of 2000, and finishing in the last four of the UEFA Champions League every year he was in charge. Not since the great Madrid side of the 1950s and 1960s that had Alfredo Di StΓ©fano and Ferenc PuskΓ‘s did the club succeed so consistently.

You see the results dont lie…he was a good coach. I remember he used to bench Zidane and Ronaldo and no one would even ask him. Now back to the question… I would say YES if he would be appointed next season, but NO if it was in mid-season despite the bad results. Why you may ask…its because too many changes lead to alot of problems. We should take these slowly and step by step. Let us be patient (which is highly doubtful) and see what Capello has in hand. In the end I think he would resign and Real Madrid would save themselves 12 million πŸ™‚ . I fully agree with the board on this one since mid-season recruiting is not an option at the moment.

PS: REMEBER I WANTED THIS GUY

Lorenzo Sanz was the president before Perez and I love him!!
