The title of this post? The TITLE!

Yeah, man utd are champions again after today's result which means liverpool players can ask benitez to leave them out for west brom's game. And I'm here again to take a swipe at the man himself, Rafa Benitez.

After all that you bragged about, man utd is still the champion and Liverpoo(no L) is empty-handed. Ironies:

1. He wants to win the league with the likes of David Ngog, Dirk Kuyt, Albert Riera, Damien Plessis, Lucas, Nabeh El Zhar, Martin Skrtel, Emiliano Insua, Sami Hyypia, Andrea Dossena, Phillip Degen, Fabio Aurelio, Alvaro Arbeloa, all of whom are west brom-quality players. Such is Rafa's talent-scouting abilities and financial disadvantage is not a good excuse when you buy these kind of players.

2. If Liverpool didn't win the league bcos Torres and Gerard were injured for long periods, then surely Arsenal should be the champion.

3. Man Utd played an energy-sapping 66 games, 11 more than Liverpool. Utd went to the far far away land of Japan to play the World Club Cup competition, won the community shield, went all the way to win the carling cup, entered the FA cup semi final, and now into Champions League final. Liverpool players had so many beer breaks and Rafa had all the time in the world to come up with a masterplan, but still he couldn't outwit Sir Alex. That's why it's SIR Alex.

4. Rafa humiliates Liverpool and Gerard. Liverpool is the only team who lost only 2 games but didn't win the title while Gerard is a player of the year without a single premier league medal. Phillip Neville has 6, Alan Smith has 1, that shit Silvestre has a couple.

5. Liverpool drew with Stoke twice and lost to relegation-bound Middlesbrough.

6. Is Rafa the only one who goes against the theory "the table doesn't lie"? He said being first in the league only means more points and u're not necessarily the best. Instead, the best team is chosen according to the time of the season(consistency doesn't count?). I think he will agree that the first in the league is the best team in the country when he wins the league one day. This season, he didn't win. So this season the first is not the best. Hmmm....

What's yr take?

IDIOT

Tevez has a thorn/pain-in-the-ass/drogba in his family, creating all sorts of unnecessary problems that other non-extended families do not experience. It's robbing him of a happy family life:

1. Dad has an extra person(grown up) to feed
2. Mom don't get to control the astro remote after coming back tired from work
3. Dad has to deal with all kinds of non-existent, unnecessarily-created problems
   
4. the family have to see a self-claimed matured person swearing from time to time
5. Grandma has to hear her own son(not tevez's dad) cursing her to death every now n then
6. when they go out for holidays they get accused of not being caring to Grandma
7. when they speak loudly to hearing-aided Grandma they get accused of being rude to her
8. when they frown while helping Grandma they get accused of being insincere to her
9. when they need help to care for Grandma, the idiot would not help
10. tevez gets called from the backroom to the living room to switch on the tv switch for the idiot
    
11. when Dad put food on the table the idiot complains its too much tat they throw them away in the end
12. when Dad put less food on the table the idiot complains its too little
13. when Grandma says she doesn't want to watch the tv, the idiot switches on the tv for her and then tells her tat the tv is on for too long and it will spoil
14. when the idiot was doing the mopping, he complains he's doing all the hard job
15. when Dad takes over the mopping the idiot complains the floor is not clean enough
16. when they watch the tv for kinda long the idiot complains the tv is too hot for the whole day
17. when the idiot has a new show to catch he takes over yr slot and slaps u if u fight for the remote
18. when man utd beats arsenal 1-0, arsenal is good bcos they managed to keep the deficit by only one goal
19. when arsenal beat man utd, arsenal is good bcos they win
20. Dad the breadwinner cannot eat 2 rounds for dinner
    

He enjoys being ungrateful to people who are feeding and sheltering him. He enjoys ruining a family, like how Joker would.

Arsenal dreamed a dream.... the story never ends...

I think its better keeping quiet before a game, let yr performance do the talking and then only you can talk big, which is what I'm gonna do now! While most of Man Utd players were talking about expecting a tough game, fatigue's impact, disappointment in own performance and not scoring more, their approach to the game, importance of Rio, except for Ronaldo's sulking, these are what Arsenal players had to say during pre-match:

Fabregas: How much stronger are we at home? We showed that in the Premier League, by beating them and scoring two goals.
Me: You broke down after 11 minutes at home.

Toure: Almunia had a good game and kept us in the tie so next Tuesday you will see a better Arsenal.
Me: They were almost the same as the side at Old Trafford, that held a lot of possession but didnt create chances.

Almunia: Maybe Manchester United are physically stronger than us - but in terms of desire, nobody can beat us. The Champions League is now the only trophy left open to us this season and next Tuesday we will show we are good enough to win this competition. We may be a young team but we have plenty of European experience.
Me: Good enough to win champions league? Plenty of European experience? HAHA. And one game of brilliance but concedes 2 in 11 minutes the next doesn't say much about his England credentials.

Wenger: I am very confident the team will produce a MAGNIFICENT performance and that we will manage it. We play a home game where we have a strong record in the Champions League.
Me: Magnificent? I know Man Utd produced a magnificent performance. Well, at least he's a gracious loser at the end of the game.

Eboue: We will need the fans to be behind us for 90 minutes, even for 120 minutes!
Oshea: We didn’t hear our fans for the first five minutes because Arsenal’s supporters were really up for it.Even when they got a throw-in the noise was like they’d scored a goal.
Me: 120 minutes? They didn't even get through 8 minutes!

Wenger: I know and I can understand the criticism, but I watched carefully that game [against United] and Adebayor put a lot of effort in, more than people think.
Me: It's not that he didn't want to put in effort, he was just pretty much screened out and couldn't do anything-whether first or second leg.

The best quote has to be this:

Bendtner: I am 100 per cent sure that we will pass through to the final. Of course you never feel good after a defeat but we look positive at the return game. I am confident that we will play in the final. Can we manage to score three goals? Yes, we have those qualities.
Me: Talking about math, 100%? I don't think it was even 70-80% for 11 minutes. So are you gonna play in the final in rome? Did you score 3 goals? Well, maybe you did something cool, getting past a defender with a skillful trick(whoa!) only to side-net it, which is typical of you.

Sorry to disappoint you, bendtner!

Oh and I need to quote Evra:

"It was 11 men against 11 babies. We never doubted ourselves.

We have much more experience and that's what made the difference. We were always confident. It should have been that score in the first leg anyway. It is a great United team that won.

Football today is not only about playing well, it's about winning trophies. Everybody talks about the way Arsenal play but, at the end of the day, it's about winning silverware.

At United, we play well and we win. Tactically and technically we were superior. You look at our starting 11 and theirs and you see that we are well above.

Lots of people are disappointed because they thought they would beat us like they did in the league. But the Champions League is another level."

Me: He just explains it all about Arsenal. Now I hope he don't regret making that comment about winning silverware!

Apparently Bendtner wasn't just disappointed, he was distraught to the extent that he wanted to strip naked! He was pictured leaving a London nightclub at 4am this morning with his belt undone and jeans pulled down before being helped into a waiting car.

EPL season finale fever

I'm now in the climax of my semester. Every paper from now on is a final. Obviously it's a tough period to come and get a result, but I know its in my hands. I've got 3 massive papers ahead and I want to do well in every one of them. Winning, no, scoring A is the name of the game, no, finals.

What I do now decides everything; if I do badly in one paper, it’s hard to recover. I’ll have to take my chances when they come and make sure I don’t do badly. I have to keep focus and concentration during my preparations and during the paper itself. Any mistake or lapse of concentration could dent my title hopes, i mean good grades hope.

It would be stupid to think this is going to be easy. Complacency does not come into it as far as I'm concerned. I cannot get carried away and let complacency or disappointment from individual result to get into my head. I move on. Nothing is guaranteed.

I've got to show character during each paper. Attack the paper. Attack is the best form of defence. I'll be going at it full throttle in order to get the result I want.

This is a heavenly place...

oink oink

This semester I have more Dr Oinks who are despicable in their own different ways. That semester was classical just because of him. This time I have four really loathsome lecturers if not hilarious, but somehow I got kinda immune already after the oinky experience.

There's one soft lecturer, also a Dr, who have once broken record with a 7-people die-hard audience( I take pride in not being one of them.. haha!). There's one snobby lecturer who self-indulges in her Australian tertiary education background, but has an inscrutable grammatical problem that she pierces our poor eardrums each time she speaking. (Oops, did i make a grammar mistake?) There's one tutor with a gay-ish voice, from whom you would not want to hear calling you "my dear" especially after you waited for him in the class for half an hour on a regular basis.

On the contrary, there's this widely despised lecturer whom I actually respect. Last semester, i hated him for always being late for class and doing nothing in lectures but this semester I think he's in his comfort zone in this subject as he's doing his job fine with his vast knowledge on the profession. After all, he's an associate professor with masters in actuarial science. That alone deserves some reognition. The problem with him is, he's always telling the truth.

Some of his lambasting moments:

What's the actuarial assumptions in product pricing? Think! why are you taking so long? This is very slow you know. It's an easy question what. You see, i'm helping you to improve by asking you to think. That's the way to improve your thinking skills.

Can you try answering my question? It doesn't matter if it's wrong. What? Underwriting? What has this question to do with underwriting? You don't understand my question..

Him : The guy at the back.. Ya, what are the safeguards to this mismatching of investment strategy?
Me: ......... (panicking) Higher transfer to statutory reserve?
Him: What you mean by the word transfer? You're not using the right jargon.. It shows that u're not reading.. I've given you all the relevant additional notes. What's the use of giving you all that if you don't read?

What's the meaning of explicit? hmm? What happened to your dictionaries? I just told y'all that you should bring dictionaries so that all these sentences will only make sense to you when you understand the meaning of these individual words. That's how you can improve. What's so difficult in bringing a dictionary? Just because its heavy you can't bring one?

(class attendance was exceptionally good because it was exam day) Why are there so many people whom I'm seeing for the first time? Those who comes regularly are really wrong for signing the attendance for the regular absentees. It's a whole mockery of the process, you know? You don't come to class, then you prepare for the consequence. Of course you pay for this course you bear the consequence.

Why you can't answer the test question on liabilities valuation? I've taught you all that. A lot of you failed the paper you know? If you continue to be like that you'll fail this paper.

That guy.. ya, i'm been observing you sleeping in my class for many times... You don't have to come to class if you're going to sleep.. That is tantamount to not learning anything.. Blah blah blah... Make this the last time...

it gets on people's nerves because he does the life-philosophies-lecturing thing as often as i shit.. Its almost like hating those spm top scorers on tv saying how they succeeded by studying 3 hours a day, paying attention in class, always asking questions, making own notes, and so on.. I used to get irritated by these interviews although all those things said were so true and basic that we could not even do...

That's the same case with this lecturer.. a lot of what he said is so true that I could not agree more with him. He's like Simon Cowell to me because many hates him for telling the truth, except that his remarks are a lot more basic than Simon's! We don't get comments like "you're utterly horrendous like a frog squeaking and creaking".. Comparing the circumstances, we're actually a shame if we hate the lecturer...

I really think he deserves a lot of respect. Its just his teaching methods that are disgusting.

Can u recognize who the heck is this guy?
