Barcelona v Manchester UNITED
Thursday, 28th May 2009
245 am LIVE ON ESPN!!!

** PLEASE BE NOTED THAT THE BUILD-UP of THE MATCH WILL START FROM 2AM..

The Premier League is now over and we end it with a win without the recognizable UNITED.. It didn't really matter now as WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS of ENGLAND.. and the moment we have been waiting for is here.. it's the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL!!!

I've made a countdown topic for this particular matter.. and i feel that i don't have to elaborate more here.. This is a match that will be eagerly anticipated by every single football fan specially UNITED & Barca's fan.. AS KNOWN TO ALL, we will be wearing the white kit for this one.. and the last time we wore this white kit against Barcelona.. WE DID WIN THE COMPETITION.. so let's the luck remained with us..

Sir Alex Ferguson is yet to decide on his final team selection and i think we will get the news soon.. who will be sacrificed this time around? Fletcher won't be available for this match due to his dismissal against Arsenal.. it's unfortunate for him, but the team will win it for him.. Sheasy & Park are guaranteed a spot in that team.. and i bet Park will be overwhelmed to show his contribution in ROME..

Rio on the other hand is still questionable.. SAF did say, he needs to be declared fit for HULL's match but he is nowhere to be seen.. is his injury serious than expected.. but i hope that is not the case.. However, if he is indeed missing.. I think the young Jonny Evans would be up for the task alongside Vida.. apart from that, i think we have no other injury or suspension concern..

Barcelona on the other hand, are without Dani Alves, Eric Abidal.. and Marquez .. so basically their defence are quite vulnerable.. Iniesta & Henry both are racing time to be fit for this match.. so far, there's a big chance that both will be available for the Catalans..

I have nothing further to say.. ALL I CAN SAY, i'm praying for a good game & of course UNITED end up victoriously on that final day..

MY FINAL TEAM SELECTION:

VDS


Sheasy Rio/Evans Vida Evra


Carrick


Ando Giggsy


Park Rooney


Ronaldo

BEST OF LUCK TO MANCHESTER UNITED!!!!!

UNITED v City
Sunday, May 10 2009
825pm LIVE on ESPN!!!

After that thumping of Arsenal at the Emirates, we're back to Old Trafford.. It's the Manchester Derby.. Our rival, City will make a visit on Sunday which also means Sparky back at OT but going against his mentor yet again but with a different team..

End of November last year.. We managed to get a win away from home at City.. Rooney was the goal scorer that day.. And when last season is concerned.. we wouldn't want to be reminded of the 2-1 defeat to City at home in February 08.. City was leading 2-0 courtesy of Vassell and Benjani.. Carrick did get one back for UNITED but it was far too late.. i'm hoping such drama won't repeat as we're in a pretty confident mood now.. we're through to the UCL final again.. that should be a big boost.. and with few games remaining, i was hoping we could end this season in flying colours..

UNITED didn't have much concern in the injury department.. apart from the long absentee of Hargo .. there's only GAz that is in the injury list.. none of our players were injured in the semi final encounter.. so that is a healthy squad we have at the moment..Ron's goal scoring tally is now up to 25 goals and i'm expecting more from him.. and so does Rooney.. but if he is to be deployed on the flank again this weekend, that would be a lil bit difficult to achieve.. but he's Wayne Rooney he's capable of scoring from anywhere.. hehe..

City on the other hand, are missing Sturridge, Benjani, Zabaleta, SWP, Bellamy and Hamann.. Robinho is their leading goalscorer with 14 goals this season.. this is a man to watch for.. he's dangerous.. and Fergie should keep note on that.. City only managed to get 2 wins on the road all season long.. so i can safely say that their away record sux..

i'm in such a good mood.. i didn't have much to say.. so here's my team selection..

VDS


Sheasy Rio/Evans Vida Evra


JS PArk Fletcher Carrick Ron


Roo Tevez/Berba

and again, i'm hoping Roo will be playing a central role this weekend.. i wanna see him as a striker again.. i already missed seeing him playing that striker role.. COME ON ROO, gimme more goals!!!!!!!!! And as for Ron, i knew he did quite well playing the free-role .. in fact, he looks more like himself when given that free-role.. perhaps another goal from Ron too?

d cni aku jus nk ucap thanks kt kak fi sbb wt cupcake tk sy....

ni dia....

time elok msa dpt....

tp malangnya.....






ni jd nya.....

bla sapa kt blik,afta 4jam drive n ltak cupcake ni dlm keta,dia jd cair....
sediy siot....
br igt nk simpan 5hari.....
huhu



p/s: thanks kak fi...nnti wt lg neh.....wt mcm y sy ckp hr 2...hehe

1st goal : JS Park
2nd goal : Cristiano RONALDO
3rd goal : Cristiano RONALDO

Gunners vs Red Devils for a spot in the Champions League final.. we're in need of goals to seal this off.. so COME ON UNITED!!!!!!!!!!

This will be the fifth straight year that England have had a side in the Champions League final. And if United win, they'll become the first team to defend the title since the old European Cup was superseded by the Champions League.

There was plenty of speculation about Carlos Tevez starting tonight, but once again the South American is on the bench. Rooney starts on his own up front. Ronaldo will play down the centre for United.


FULL SQUAD :

VDS


Sheasy Rio Vida Evra


Carrick


Fletcher Ando


JS Park Roo


Ron

SUBS: Kuszczak, Rafael Da Silva, Evans, Giggs, Scholes, Berbatov, Tevez

United - playing in their all-blue strip tonight - come forward to make the first move of the match, but the ball is cut out by Song just as Park is about to deliver a ball.

First chance comes for Arsenal as they win a corner from a deflected shot by Fabregas. The chance is blown straight away: United took a short corner, and when the ball came in Vidic had moved offside.

GOAL FOR UNITED!!!! Ronaldo runs on to a ball up ion the left side of the box, cuts it back across the penalty box - and Gibbs slips over! Park is there to pounce, and he right-foots the ball past Almunia!!! And that's the away goal we are aiming for.. Arsenal now has to find 3 goals to stay in the competition..

That's something of a disaster for the Gunners already, who now need to score at least three times to make it through to the final.

United have a free kick... AND RONALDO HAS SCORED!!!!!! It's the second for UNITED now.. Wenger is shaking his head..Superb strike, but the ball went almost through the hands of Almunia!! Incredible start for United who are already making up for their profligacy last week!

Almost another great chance for Ronaldo, trying to get on the end of a long ball but ending up offside.

Ronaldo and Rooney combine well as they chase a long ball... both onside...

Ronaldo takes the ball and cuts it back for Rooney - who shoots well, and it's a lovely save from Almunia at full stretch!

Ronaldo leaps to meet the corner, but his header goes over...

Arsenal keep on coming back, Nasri putting a good ball through to Adebayor who wins a corner - but Van der Sar takes the ball well.

Ronaldo comes up the right into the box and wins a corner...

Rooney gets his head to the corner but heads wide - he's penalised for a push in any case.

With the freedom of a 3-0 aggregate lead the holders are pinging the ball round the park as if they think they're Barcelona...

UNITED push up again - they're looking dangerous with every move - but Rooney on the left flank is marginally offside.

UNITED hit on the counter and Ronaldo hits a neat, dipping shot on target inside the left post that Almunia gathers well.

Ronaldo is cut down by Sagna and wins a free kick just outside the box despite the fact that the Arsenal man seemed to get the ball...

Ronaldo himself takes the free kick - and pings it hard, on target... but this time Almunia's hands are solid .

Ronaldo has gone down wincing and holding his leg after a minimal-contact challenge by Fabregas.

Another free kick won by United, this time Park gets the decision after jumping on top of Fabregas's head - a baffling call by the ref.

UNITED are totally efficient in closing down their opponents at the moment, closing in at least two or three on one every time the ball comes near the final quarter of the pitch.

Nice move from Arsenal is throttled by the United defence. The Gunners are starting to look a bit more effective now, but the visitors are keeping five or six men behind the ball.

Rooney wins a free kick from a 50/50 tussle with Walcott, and United try to clip the ball upfield again...

Rooney finds space to chase a ball on the left, pulls it back across the box straight to Ronaldo - but the Portuguese superstar's left-foot effort is weak and straight at the keeper.

HALFTIME!!!Just a few seconds of injury time and the ref blows up to signal the end of the first half. It Looks like game over to Arsenal.. but i am not taking anything fore granted... it's not over until it is over.. so we need to keep focus & keep up the momentum.. GIVE NO ROOM FOR ARSENAL TO RECOVER!!!



We're back in action, and butter-footed Kieran Gibbs has been replaced by Eboue. A positive move by Wenger, but it's not exactly pushing the panic button just yet.

Corner for the visitors, whipped in by Rooney but headed clear by Sagna.

UNITED hit on the break as Arsenal cautiously push up... and Ronaldo has a great opening...

OMG!! I just saw Becks!!!!! OMG, i miss him as a UNITED player!!!!

Ronaldo cuts back in from the right flank and unleashes a left-foot shot from the edge of the box - GREAT SAVE BY ALMUNIA! The keeper pushes it just around the post - and then collects the resulting corner well.

United are frustrating the Arsenal players at the moment, hanging on to the ball ruthlessly and running the clock down.

Rooney charges up field on the break from Park's great ball... and SLOTS A GREAT BALL TO RONALDO - WHO BURIES THE BALL IN THE ROOF OF THE NET!!!!! Superb goal on the counter - and that's surely it now. The only question is who United will face in Rome. who United will face in Rome.

It's surely game over for the GUnners.. but let's keep the goal coming LADS!!!! A hat-trick for Ron perhaps.. VIVA RONALDO!!!!!!!!

Evra comes off and Rafael comes on for United, while Rooney - who was one yellow card from missing the final - is switched for Berbatov.

It's all over as a contest now, with the pace of the match dropping hugely as both sides begin conserving energy for other battles to come.

It's now UNITED who seem to be pushing harder again, as the match begins to take on the patterns of a training ground match.

Cesc is taken out by Fletcher in the box - AND IT'S A RED CARD FOR FLETCHER! HE MISSES THE FINAL!!!! THAT IS UNFORTUNATE FOR FLETCHER!!! AND IT'S A PENALTY!!!

Van Persie hammers the penalty into the top right corner - superb strike, but replays suggest that Fletcher got the ball with his tackle. Still, it was a clumsy scissor kick round Van Persie's waist in the six-yard box - that's asking for trouble.

Fergie is already arguing calmly with the third official about trying to get the red card overturned... It's desperately unfair on Fletcher if he has to miss the final. No appeal can be made for this one. UEFA officials have just confirmed that there is no right of appeal except in cases of mistaken identity. FLETCHER WON'T PLAY IN THE FINAL.. THAT IS A SHAME.. DISGRACEFUL!!!!

Free kick for the holders, and it's Ronaldo - of course - to take... he strikes it perfectly, but it's just too high.

Three minutes to be added on.

And it's the final whistle. UNITED are safely through to another UCL Final..

CONGRATULATIONS UNITED & CIAO ROME!!!!!!!!!

Arsenal v UNITED
Wednesday, April 6 2009
230am LIVE on ESPN!!!

It's the second leg of the UCL semi-final.. we're away to the Emirates in London.. The good news is we didn't any goals.. but the bad news is we only managed to get a goal.. The Gunners are quite lucky to walk away with just one goal.. we should got more goals.. but that's all in the past.. We're now in the 2nd leg so, we need to stay focus & protect that slender lead .. of course we need to find that valuable away goals & keep a clean sheet as well..

Both teams managed to get a win for their respective matches.. UNITED went to the RIverside and sealed 3 points after beating them 2-0.. thanks to the likes of Ryan Giggs & JS Park.. THis match was played with one eye on the midweek all-english european encounter.. Macheda was given his 1st Premiership start alongside Berba.. While Roo was deployed on the left yet again.. Tevez on the other hand started on the bench.. Ronaldo did make the UNITED bench but didn't play any part for the Red Devils on Saturday.. nice good rest for UNITED's no 7.. Fletcher & Carrick are both rested for this match..

Arsenal too fielded their youngsters.. all their big guns are rested against Pompey.. Even with that squad.. they won the game 3-0 away from home courtesy of two Bendtner goals & Vela...

Rio suffered rib injury last THursday but is expected to be back in time for this clash.. but i doubt Rio will make it.. Brown is still nowhere to be seen... Arsenal also had their fair share of injury worries with Silvestre the latest to be ruled out.. THey're already without Gallas, Clichy, Van PErsie & Eduardo..

All good mood from both camps & of course they will be fired up for another great encounter between these two.. we all knew, it's not going to be easy at the Emirates, but i believe UNITED has what it takes to win it.. I just pray that Roo will survived another day without any caution as he might be risking his chance of making the final.. SO, let's all pray that the calm ROO will remained.. both Cesc & Walcott are still a big threat for us so we need to neutralize their effectiveness this Wednesday..

My Choice..


VDS


Rafael/Sheasy Evans Vida Evra


Fletcher Carrick Ando Ron


Tevez/Berba


Roo

Roo might once again be used on the left flank but i just wish he could play in the middle this midweek..

Teman..
Ku titipkan buatmu bicara kerinduan ini..
Agar kau tahu bahawa kau bermakna buatku..

Teman..

Cinta kepada bunga akan layu

Cinta kepada manusia akan berpisah

cinta kepada Allah akan abadi..

Bicara ku bukan palsu..
Bukan omong-omong kosong..
Tapi hakikatnya yg pasti..

Teman..
Kita yg terpisah jauh..
Rindu semakin menggamitku..
Untuk bersama bersua denganmu..
Namun aku pasrah..
Kerana ada jurang antara kita..

Teman..
Mestikah perlu aku menanti..
Kerna esok lusa belum pasti..
Mestikah jua ku terus mengharap..
kerna ku tahu kita tak mungkin..
Bersatu..!!

Teman
Menanti sesuatu yg tidak pasti..membosankan!
Kadang kala terdetik d hatiku
Untuk berhenti berharap..
Membiarkan bintang-bintang yg berkelipan
Terus menemani rembulan..
Namun..demi sebuah janji..
Pungguk tetap setia merindui rembulan..
Bisakah kau kembalikan senyumanku semanis dulu..

Teman

Hanya dengan tali Allah..

Tali persahabatan ini akan kekal..

Islam untuk semua...

1st goal : Ryan Giggs
2nd goal : JS Park

Manchester United have a chance to go six points clear at the top of the Premier League if they win at the Riverside, but Middlesbrough are fighting for their lives at the opposite end.

An interesting team selection from Alex Ferguson. He brings in Ben Foster for Edwin van der Sar and Federico Macheda for Carlos Tevez, but otherwise it is a pretty strong line-up. Wayne Rooney starts but Cristiano Ronaldo is on the bench. No Carrick & Fletcher for UNITED today..

FULL SQUAD:


Foster


Sheasy Vida Evans Evra


JS Park Scholesy Giggsy Roo


Kiko Berba


SUBS: Kuszczak, Ronaldo, Nani, Tevez, Gibson, Rafael, Ando

Downing looks to win a free-kick off O'Shea... referee Mark Halsey waves play on... Rooney gets an early touch on the United left... he cuts inside but nothing comes of it.

Rooney fires at goal now after having cut inside McMahon from the left wing! Over the bar, but worrying for Boro nevertheless...

The crowd want a hand ball decision against Foster now! The United keeper comes out to collect a long ball through, but takes it inside his box, and the ref doesn't give anything...

Giggs clips a ball forward looking for Park... headed clear by Wheater...

Rooney tries to cut back inside from the left yet again but this time his intentions are well read by McMahon and Boro come away with the ball...

Scholes is pulled up for a handball... and Boro have a free-kick, 40 yards out...

Vidic leaps into the air to powerfully head clear...

Downing swings it in... Wheater goes up with Vidic, but the United man wins the ball and heads clear... it's knocked back in soon enough... TUNCAY WITH AN OVER HEAD KICK! But it's wide and the flag is up for offside anyway!

It opens up in front of Rooney for a moment, and he lets fly! Over the bar! That was very close..

Poor touch from Vidic and Boro pick up possession again... but Downing's final ball is straight at Ferdinand...

Wheater piles into Macheda after a suspect handball by the Italian and United have a free-kick... the locals don't like that one at all...

Giggs plays into the box for Macheda who tries a little Maradona turn on the ball... it doesn't come off and Boro break with Tuncay, who ends up winning a throw deep in the United half...

Scholes flies into what can only be described as a typical Scholes challenge...

Rooney is again allowed to run forward... but again the United ace's effort fails to hit its intended target... unless of course, its intended target was a fat bloke in Row C, in which case, he pulled it off superbly.

And now Scholes fires wide! United still finding their range...

Rooney centres for Giggs! But what a challenge by Bates, who gets back in time to put in a challenge!

GOAL! GIGGS OPENS THE SCORING! Again, the Boro defence fail to close a United player down in shooting range and the PFA Player of the Year makes them pay with a crisp low drive into the bottom right hand corner! 1-0 to the champions!

McMahon tangles with Rooney and the pair fall to the ground... Rooney looks like he's about to lose his temper, but Mark Halsey races over to diffuse the situation...

Big handball shout in the United area as the ball appears to hit first Vidic and then Berbatov on the arm! But the ref waves play on!

Boro come again... Foster flaps on the cross... it falls to Tuncay... great block by Vidic!

Macheda becomes the first recipient of a yellow card... for a sliding challenge on Wheater on the touchline.

Vidic is penalised for holding King and Boro have a chance to launch a ball into the United box just before half-time...

United break now with Park... he plays into Berbatov, who leaves the ball for Scholes... again he's allowed to strike at goal! But again, it's drags wide of the mark!

SCHOLES! Again, he drags a shot wide of the mark from the edge of the box! Poor shooting from United this half...

HALFTIME!!!!!There goes the half-time whistle and United head in a Ryan Giggs goal to the good!

MACHEDA! Ooh! Rooney twists and turns past McMahon before pulling back for the Italian! But he can only fire wide of the upright!

Giggs marauds through the Boro defence now... past one, past two... but he can't get a shot off and in the end his attempted backheel fails to find its target...

GOAL! PARK MAKES IT TWO! It's a great finish to a great move to put United right in the driving seat! Rooney is the final architect, playing a lovely reverse pass to the South Korean - which sees Wheater completely wrong-footed - who runs onto it and finds the bottom right corner! That's the goal United needed... they'll be able to relax now and this should be comfortable from now on...

United make a change... on comes Tevez to a huge roar... Macheda departs....


Tevez looks to play a one-two with Berbatov... it doesn't come off though as Bates shields the ball out for a goal kick.

Evra's down for United... he looks like he's in pain following a challenge from Aliadiere... it's his left ankle...

Giggs centres for Tevez, who tess himself up for a shot on goal... well blocked by Huth!

Park is brought off for Nani... job done.

Oooh! Rooney turns his man inside and out before curling one just over the bar!

United make a final change now as Rafael comes on to replace Evra... This means Ronaldo will not play any part today..

Nearly brilliant from United! Berbatov, Tevez and Rooney are all involved before O'Shea is played in on the United left! But the Irishman's shot is blocked and Boro can breathe again...

Rafael delivers a dangerous corner into the box which Jones pats down into the turf... not the most confident goalkeeping from the home keeper, but United can't capitalise...

United are coasting to victory here... Boro have offered little up front and Foster has had just the one save to make.

2-0 victory for UNITED and we're now 6 points clear on top for at least 24 hours..

Middlesbrough v UNITED
Saturday, 2nd May 2009
740pm LIVE on ESPN!!!

UNITED will be away to Riverside Stadium for the weekend.. and it will be a lunchtime kick-off.. so early footy match for us this week.. The Riverside proves to be one of our tough venue in recent seasons.. Boro appears to be stubborn when they had an encounter with us.. and it's never easy.. they managed to get a point even when they're down.. huhu..

Boro right now is fighting for Premier League survival.. they're currently 19th in the league.. This game will be important to them & it will definitely be important for us too.. Boro's away form has been poor.. and their home form is not that healthy too.. huhu.. 5 wins, 4 lost & 8 draws.. Their topscorer is the Turkish, Tuncay Sanli with 6 goals so far..The only injury concern is Pogatetz who is currently out with knee injury..

UNITED who got a win against Arsenal early this morning & Spurs thrashing on the weekend will surely boost the confidence of the team ahead of this trip.. However, i think they will also be cautious as it has not always been a happy trip to the Riverside.. Rio was injured this morning and was taken out due to rib injury.. we're still waiting for the scans.. hope everything will be just fine.. Brown is still nowhere to be seen and has not been involved since he made the Reserves comeback.. i wish i could see him soon..

Early this season, we've met Boro in the Carling Cup where we end up winning 3-1.. With Ron, Giggsy & Nani scoring that day.. We then met them again in the Premier League where we only managed to win 1-0.. Berbatov was on the score sheet that day..

We will know what to expect when we travel to the Riverside Stadium this weekend.. I hope nothing is taken foregranted.. as every win is important now.. I'm hoping that Roo will play as a striker this weekend..

HEre's my selection :


VDS


Sheasy/Rafael Evans Vida Evra


Ron Carrick Ando/Fletcher/ JS Park


Roo Berba/Tevez
