Chelsea

John Terry named England Captain

Mr Chelsea becomes Mr England. He’s the only logical choice, really.

John Terry as England Captain

Unplugging

Long day today:

  • CFA revision course started. We have 1 month before the exam.
  • Chelsea crowned champion of the English top league for the 2nd year running.
  • A fun party
  • The kind of rain that tells you summer will be over soon

I’ve decided to take a month off from anything non-work and non-CFA to prepare for the exam. This means

  • no tech news. Bloglines will be off-limit.
  • No torrent
  • No starting on a new book. The unread= and unfinished= will remain that way for another while

Let’s do it.

Chelsea is the champion again

Three Points Lane

I am a Chelsea fan. I think Gullit sucked as a manager. (Or at least he used to) I think Hoddle, Vialli, and Ranieri did ok. And I’m loving the Mourinho era.

But being an oversea fan, my allegiance does not extend to hating the so-called rivals. For chelsea, the big three would be Arsenal, Tottenham, and Leeds. (Somehow, Leeds are in the list for most clubs, not just us)

So normally I read the fans’ slugging each others with only amusement. And certainly amusing some of them are. Take Can you beat Spurs too often? from a Chelsea fan about our record against Spurs.

(Which by the way is even worse than ours against Arsenal, but that shouldn’t be called a ‘record’ anymore since we won 2 and draw 2 of the mathces in the last 2 seasons, not even including that win in the champion’s league)

Obviously it would be unfair to dwell on the fact that there are now legal age voters who weren’t born the last time Chelsea lost a League game at White Hart Lane.

The 1.9 billion man

in thai baht, that is.

Michael Essien and Roy Keane

£26m is total madness, especially considering players from france need a year of toughen up before making some kind of impact here in the english league.

Anyway, I like this picture because ultimately we hope he can be our Keane. Think Makelele who also attacks from second row.
