3 more games till the summer of speculation
There is a game tonight. The third last game of the season.

I was thinking back to august last year and what my thoughts were about the fixture list. There and then we could see how the run-in to the end of the season would be. We would be playing Chelsea and Man Utd back to back, with Stoke City as the last game. Playing the last game at home is always a bonus but that wasn't what I was thinking about completely.

It would have been so exciting to face Chelsea and Man Utd while still being in the title-race assuming it was still a 4-horse race for the title. But anyway, it wasn't meant to be. I don't trust that with the current squad it would have made a whole lot of difference if we were in the title race still with 3 games to go. Currently it's just Man Utd and Liverpool and frankly, I don't see United slipping up the way pool wants them too.

On to the Chelsea game. It'll be at home. We've already beaten them at the Bridge. I don't know how things will be shaping up, not really knowing what to expect. It's like 2 losers from the Champion's League meeting each other with nothing to play for.

Gibbs will be playing and I suspect it'll be the best team we can afford to put out on the pitch. I don't know about Arshavin but he might tell the boss that he's good to go and want to play.

I want to see more of Vela though. I think Adebayor is an asshole and I can't remember myself celebrating a goal he's scored since last summer. I'll just go yay, Arsenal scored, and that's it. No punching fists in the air or anything. Arshavin's 4 at Anfield sent me jumping up and down. I really don't have room for traitors. Bayou flirted with other clubs and said one thing and meant the other like all the time. It's just like what men like to say about women being 口是心非. We have a man like this and it doesn't look like ending anytime soon, unless he gets offloaded in the summer. Then we'll all scream with joy and anticipate the prospects of whoever comes in to replace him.

Ibrahimovic wants to play in the Premier League!

I don't think Mourinho would want to let him go though.

We'll be seeing bayou playing tonight. If I see Diaby play I might cry. He was good for a brief period until it all went wrong.

The manager is thinking through his transfer plans. It will no doubt be influenced by the impact and change Arsha has on the team. Isn't it obvious that bringing in an experienced player like that works wonders? All we need are a couple and we'll be good to go. By experienced I really don't mean a player like Silvestre. We srsly don't need rejects anymore. Good thing he didn't make a go for Sami Hyypia.

Tonight we'll see who emerges from the loser v loser fight. Hah. I could say that I couldn't care less about the result but I want a win. Defeat hurts but it all depends. Defeat Chelsea suffered midweek was painful but no less than they deserved because they had it a long time coming with their anti-footballing tactics, time wasting and failure to kill off the game. Why rely on penalties when you had the chances to score from open play?

Then they blame the ref for their incompetence. The refereeing can be a total nightmare but the 11 men on the pitch can still make the difference. Had they gone through no one would be complaining the way Drogs did.

And Ballack.
