I think that means that no one in Singapore can watch it on TV. If Singtel does have it though, they would have made a lot of noise about it by now.
Is there no coverage of the Carling Cup in Singapore?
How puzzling.
Anyway, tonight's game will be worth watching. It's Liverpool and we drew them this early on. The good thing is, we are playing at home. I love watching home games. The TV quality seems to be better. The one at West Ham sucked. It sucked even more when the team got only a point when it should have been 3. So now I shall address the fact that there is no TV coverage so the TV quality would be as good as it gets on an internet stream, assuming I'm determined enough to stay up. Lots of coffee today just because it's good. Has the world realised that white coffee is more pleasant than black coffee? I think it's because it's sweet and milky. I was in a secluded Ipoh town not too long ago having fresh white coffee where the coffee beans are roasted with butter.
Sounds sinful.
So, team news ahead of the game sees Nasri and Fabianski make their first appearances of the season. Another reason why this game is worth watching is to see how Fabianski performs and if it means he slots right into the number 1 spot after regaining match fitness. So interesting. If that is the case than Manuel Almunia looks like he'll be on his way out, except that no one wants him. I'm being mean I know. But he got the love when he managed to oust Jens from being first choice and that was by far his best season yet. He just hasn't got started this season. I would give him more chances to prove himself but hey, I'm not the boss, and perhaps his attitude in training had caused the world's longest chest infection on a goalkeeper. An excellent excuse I'd say. Arsene Wenger always seems to find the best excuses for all his players, more so when protecting them. I am envious.
I'm pretty bummed Jack Wilshere will not be featuring thanks to a bad ankle. The return of the many first teamers will limit his chances in the senior squad and the Carling Cup is mean to be his tournament and his stage to shine. Plus, it's such a huge pity to separate Aaron Ramsey from little Jack. They do link up together well, as though they train an extra session everyday together, forever.
Bendtner's in the squad too. He should feature. I hope Liverpool is big enough for him yeah. Everytime I think 'carling cup' and 'nicklas bendtner' I think that 2-0 loss at Turf Moor and his arrogance throughout the match, as though being the only senior player in the team means working less hard, like he's too good to be there. Cocky fellow. He has so much to offer and is so full of self-confidence and belief, that actually is his downfall. Walk tall dude, the right way.
From this article, it looks like it's make or break for Fran Merida. He's in his last year of his contract at Arsenal. He really needs to be spectacular tonight in order to have a long term deal served up on the table. We'll see.
Wenger speaks about Nasri too and it seems that he views this injury positively. I don't think Arsene Wenger can be negative when he comments on his players. Anyhow, it seems that he has invented a new position called the 'half winger'. I'd really like to see how that works.
So many reasons to catch the game. No TV coverage. Meh. Streams will be out later.
