Queiroz : "Manchester United Love You Ronaldo..."

Carlos Queiroz, Manchester United's Assistant Manager, has once again state the desire for Cristiano Ronaldo to change his opinion on moving to Real Madrid. "Manchester United is a very special football club." said Queiroz to the Portuguese radio station, Renascenca.

"Because of that fact, we know how to give Cristiano complete affections and attention. However, by keeping our mouth shut at this moment, is the most sensible action in the heat of the moment, so that we do not aid those (Real Madrid) whose interests are difficult to identify.

This is the first time Queiroz speaks about the transfer saga since Ronaldo was rumored of wanting to leave Old Trafford. Ronaldo also said he would be back to Manchester for a small operation on his ankle but instead was leaving on a holiday.

Queiroz's own future is also in doubt, with his name on a list to replace Luiz Felipe Scolari Portugal, as the national coach. "I'm not going to put myself in the market," he said. "The decision should not be a result of those who make themselves candidates, but a decision that is conscious, rational and based on what the Federation [Portuguese FA] judges [believe] is necessary.".

Ronaldo's statistics for five seasons at Old Trafford is the main reason why Manchester United are so determined to keep the double footballer of the year and why Real Madrid (the Satans in whites) are so interested in getting his signature, regardless how unethical their methods are.

Ronaldo has started in 196 matches for Manchester United, and net the goal 92 times, a remarkable statistics, especially for someone who spends a lot of time playing wide role as a winger. With 42 goals last season, including one in the final of the Champions League, Ronaldo is the definitely the best player in the world right now.

Manchester United want him to stay. And like Queiroz said above Manchester United can provide all the love and attention that Ronaldo needs.

Euro 2008 Quarter Finals Review

Euro 2008 tournament has finished its Quarter Finals match ups, some of the results has been predicted, but most certainly, it was a brilliant Quarter Final with lots of exciting matches, surprising results, and really delivers the official slogan "Expect Emotions".

Germany has proven to the world that to never write them off. They have always been a tournament specialist. Like in 1996 when they won the European Cup for the last time, Germany are slowly but surely play better and better football. Portugal, despite having the World's best player in their team, just doesn't have the mental toughness that Germany have for the most important matches.

Turkey VS Croatia was one of the craziest and definitely one of the best football match ever. Turkey is one tough dog-fighting team. They never gave up. If you think their comeback from 2-0 down against the Czech was crazy, check out of how they equalized at the very last second of the extra time against Croatia. It was a vital goal, as it brought back the momentum to them prior to the penalty shoot out. The disappointed Croatians were so crushed mentally that they only scored once in the shoot out via Darjo Srna. Whatever the result was, both teams have shown the world what fearless and gutsy football was all about.

And Russia, who would've thought that they would beat Holland at their own game ? Holland was supposed to be the dominant inventor of the "Total Football" concept, but instead they were shown by the Russians on how to play Total Football the right way. It made me wonder for one second, probably Holland weren't that great after all in the group stage, but instead it was Italy and France who were crap.

Italy shown their best defensive performance against Spain. They managed to hold the world's best striking duo in Torress and Villa for a full 120 minutes. But defense alone won't win you championships in football, Toni's lack of accuracy and Italy's midfielder lacks of inspiration due to the absence of Pirlo costed them big time. In the end, Casillas stood tall against his hero Gianluigi Buffon.

So, what will happen in the semi finals ?

Anything can happen. After watching how Turkey played, who would bet that Germany will easily beat them ? I can't even decide who will win this one, since Germany was well known for their never say die attitude, while Turkey, in this tournament, really embodies the German's spirit within their team.

And then Russia VS Spain. Total Football meets with the fluid attacking style of the Spanish team. This match has the potential of having a goals galore written all over it, and I sure do hope that both teams won't disappoint ?

The unique thing about the Semi Final match ups is that all four teams who match up with each other have a very similar playing style and approach of the game. Expect Emotions boys, I mean really....

THE BEAUTYFULL PLACE IS NAME "AUSTRALIA"

Jembatan Sydney Harbour adalah jalur utama untuk menyeberangi Pelabuhan Sydney (Sydney Harbour) yang menghubungkan distrik bisnis sentral Sydney (Sydney CBD) dengan wilayah utara Sydney (North Sydney).
Di atasnya terdapat jalur kereta api, kendaraan bermotor, sepeda, dan trotoar. Bersamaan dengan Gedung Opera Sydney, Jembatan Sydney Harbour adalah ikon bagi kota Sydney sekaligus Australia. Warga setempat menamai jembatan ini sebagai The Coathanger[1] (gantungan pakaian) akibat dari designnya yang melengkung di bagian atas, meskipun panggilan ini semakin lama semakin jarang disebut.
Jembatan ini adalah bangunan tertinggi di kota Sydney hingga tahun 1967.
Menurut Guinness World Records, jembatan ini adalah yang terlebar di dunia, sekaligus sebagai jembatan lengkung berkerangka besi tertinggi di dunia dengan puncaknya berdiri 134 meter di atas permukaan pelabuhan[1]. Jembatan ini juga tercatat sebagai jembatan lengkung besi terpanjang nomor empat di dunia.

"TINGGAL KENANGAN"

Pernah ada rasa cinta
Antara kita ini tinggal kenangan
Ingin kulupakan semua tentang dirimu
Namun tak lagi kan seperti dirimu
Oh bintangku
Jauh kau pergi meninggalkan diriku
Disini aku merindukan dirimu
Kini kucoba mencari penggantimu
Namun tak lagi kan seperti dirimu
Oh kekasih
Pernah ada rasa cinta antara kita
Kini tinggal kenangan
Ingin kulupakan semua tentang dirimu
Namun tak lagi kan seperti dirimu
Oh bintangku
Jauh kau pergi meninggalkan diriku
Disini aku merindukan dirimu
Kini kucoba mencari penggantimu
Namun tak lagi kan seperti dirimu
Oh kekasih

My WAG XI

She's my favy

Nobody really cares about the games tomorrow. We're all just waiting for Portugal vs. Germany on Thursday so here's something to hold you over til' then and boost my page hits a whole lot.

Pretty simple idea, WAGs play the corresponding position of their significant other.

GK Alena Seredova - She's just regal, isn't she? Former Miss Czech Republic, also my aformentioned favy.

LB Cheryl Cole - You know what I always say, if she's good enough for one of the Jonas Brothers she's good enough for me. Ms. Tweedy-Cole brings some major musical "talent" to the table with her tremendously successful Britpop girl group and her little cameo in Will.i.am's catchy "Heartbreaker." And she's a good wholesome norn' english Geordie girl. Her only downside is she's married to a stupid fucking cunt.

Gotta have a girl who seems attainable to the average male, sort of the Lindsay Lohan of the squad. With that I introduce to you...

CB Aida Yespica - Now let's not mince words, she's a big ol' slut, and god bless her for it. Any girl who goes from Italian striker Pippo Inzaghi to Italian defender Matteo Ferrari (omg interracial!) to Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is A-OK in my book.

RB Imogen Thomas - Used to date Reading defender Ibrahim Sonko (why? I'm not sure) so she qualifies for the right back position. I'm also a sucker for dimpled Welshmen. She's like a less hairy Ryan Giggs aka perfect.

RM Victoria Beckham - Can't think of anyone more worthy of captaining my WAG XI. Before her the WAG didn't even exist. She single-handedly starts fashion trends. Her tits (what augmentation?) make her look like those fem-bots from Austin Powers and they could probably poke my eyes out but I'm drawn to them nonetheless. And she was really funny on that Coming to America NBC special, personality is a refreshing quality to find in a WAG. Basically, she's an incredible woman.

CM Sylvie van der Vaart - The hottest woman alive. Seriously. I saw but a glimpse of her in the stands at the France-Holland game and she is, without lighting or photoshop or a particularly flattering angle, the most stunningly beautiful woman alive. K now that we're on the same page, moving on...

CM Noemie Lenoir- At 28 she brings some much-needed experience to this squad and some essential full-frontal nudity (note the tattoo location, brilliant stuff). And as the arm candy of pitbull Claude Makelele she brings some steel and man-eating prowess to an admittedly lightweight midfield. If you're wondering how a mug like Makelele gets a nubian princess like Naomi, might I direct your attention to his impressive abdomen.

LM Oksana Andersson - Gotta have a Swede if you're making a list of best WAGs. Well she's Russian-born, actually, thus the Oksana. But the Andersson is a dead giveaway that she's the product of free health care and ABBA. Just what do they put in those meatballs?

CAM Ilary Blasi - Wifey of Francesco Totti. Perhaps the crown jewel of this team with those soul-piercing eyes and that unmercifully sexy name of hers. And the gratuitous nudity doesn't hurt, either.

ST Gemma Atkinson - Ok you're probably thinking there are two problems here:
1. She's a former WAG as she is Cristiano's ex-gf and
2. Cristiano is not a striker.

But I'm one step ahead of you:
1. She's not a former WAG because she's currently dating Marcus Bent who, contrary to popular belief and career statistics, is a professional footballer, and
2. Marcus Bent is a striker. Also, she has really nice surgically-enhanced breasts so I think she's earned her place.

ST Belen Rodriguez - Gotta have an Argentine. Like Sylvie she's been a dutiful and supportive WAG of the sport that has made her famous, making a cameo in the stands of Euro 2008 during the Italy-France game. Looks absolutely stunning in HD.

"GoOd JOB" Michael Ballack

Hore!!!!!!!!!!!! Akhirnya "DER PANSER"(julukan untuk timnas JERMAN) bisa lolos kebabak selanjutnya di EURO 2008.
Lewat tendangan sang kapten "Michael Ballack" pada menit ke 49 menjadikan der panser unggul atas AUSTRIA 1-0.
Semoga sang kapten bisa mengarahkan der panser menuju FINAL.
Tetap Semangat ya DER PANSER.

"About Something but Now, Not yet"

Put your hand's up..........
and say "Good bye..."
bye...
bye...
bye...
Ketika rasa itu datang
Segalanya berubah menjadi lebih indah
Semua seolah-olah senyum menyambut kita
Rasa itu membuat tampak seperti orang tak waras
Apa yang menjadi kesenangannya
Sebisa mungkin kita selalu mengikutinya
Senyum tanpa sebab dan marah tanpa alasan
Dan ketika rasa itu pergi tanpa kita mau
Tanpa meninggalkan pesan mengapa pergi dengan begitu saja
Jangan pernah tanya mengapa pergi
Jangan pernah tanya kemana ia pergi
Jangan pernah menyinggung tentangnya
Sesuatu yang ia suka seketika lenyap
DAn seketika juga kita membencinya
Biarkanlah semua berjalan sendiri dengan begitu adanya.

Euro 08': Pretenders & Contenders

Yes all the teams have played one game each. Yes I realize I predictions are traditionally made before a tournament starts. But you can't honestly expect me to make any semblance of a correct prediction before the tournament even starts, I'm no Nastrodamus. That being said it's still gonna be tough to guess this one right. Halfway through the last World Cup people were pegging the German hosts, the Argentines who mauled Serbia 6-0 and an impressive Iberian peninsula as the favorites. France looked just plain woeful and Italy barely squeezed past Australia in the first knockout round but they both ended up in the finals. Go figure.

So anyway let's run the rule over the 16 and seperate the pretenders from the contenders, alphabetically:

Austria: Co-hosts so I have a soft spot for them but they can't avoid the tag of pretenders. Simply don't have enough quality across the board, probably the weakest team in the tournament. Valiant defensive effort vs Croatia but they still ended up on the losing end and it won't get easier against Poland or Germany.

Croatia: An enigma of a team. Sometimes they can look so dangerous and other times just stale. Good enough to finish 2nd in the group but will bow out in the quarterfinals.

Czech Republic: Don't have the offensive quality they've had in past tournaments and were fortunate to beat a poor Swiss side. They won't make it out of the group stages, losing to a hungrier Turkish side in the deciding final group game.

France: Deja vu of their slow start to their last World Cup run. The difference is now they don't have Zidane to inspire them. At risk of them proving me wrong again I'm gonna label them pretenders because despite their solid defense, Thierry Henry is a shadow of his former self and thus they don't have the finishing touch up front to be considered a contender. But they'll still get out of the group ahead of Italy and Romania. Maybe.

Germany: Definite contenders. Ballack is in the type of form that helped carry Germany to the 2002 World Cup final. Klose and Podolski are two of the most potent offensive threats in the entire tournament and they've got a strong and physical lineup from top to bottom. Goalkeeper Jens Lehmann could be their Achille's heel, wasn't even good enough to start for his club team. I say they lose to Portugal in the semi-finals. There isn't a German that can stop the likes of Joao Moutinho, Quaresma and Deco, let alone that selfish prick of a best player in the world who shall remain unnamed.

Greece: Pretenders. This team needs to get out of this tournament ASAP. They are reigning champions of Europe but they are also a gratingly-boring, defensive-minded, leg-hacking scourge upon the world of football that systematically kills any and all joy a fan might get from watching them play. Sweden finally picked the lock to their defense and as a result we won't see them advance past the group stages, thankfully.

Italy: I guess I can't call the reigning world champions pretenders but they definitely aren't contenders. Simply put, they got rolled on by the Netherlands. They are too old, too poorly coached, and too disjointed and uninspired to get far in this tournament. That being said, they'll probably squeeze a win vs Romania and play for the draw vs France to get 2nd place in the group. Then they'll get rolled on by Spain in the quarterfinals.

Netherlands (Holland): Contenders and in my mind favorites to win it all. They absolutely dismantled and defending world champions. They scored 3 great goals against an Italian team that let up 2 goals throughout their entire run to the World Cup two years ago. Their only weakness could be an unheralded defense but if they can hold it together back there they've also got arguably the best 'keeper in the tournament, midfield steel in Engelaar and de Jong complemented perfectly by creative attackers van der Vaart and Sneijder and led by one of the most reliable and prolific strikers of his time in van Nistelrooy. They'll beat Sweden in the quarterfinal, though not easily, blow by a defensively undisciplined Spanish side in the semi-finals and take out Portugal in the final like they should have 2 years ago. Total football has returned to Holland.

Poland: Plucky bunch of guys, I really feel for em'. Can't call em' pretenders because they play too hard to be stuck with such a tag, but they won't beat Croatia so they won't make it past the group stages.

Portugal: Definite contenders. Probably the most fun team to watch in the tournament and they win games to boot. They Ooze with flair and attacking ability from just about every position, even central defender Pepe has shown he has an eye for goal. They'll beat Croatia in the quarterfinal and might have to go to extra time or penalties to beat Germany in the semi-finals. With the best player in the world in their ranks they can never be counted out but I think Holland will match their speed and one-up them in the final thanks to superior finishing up front.

Romania: Ah these boys hold a special place in my heart. They hold in their ranks a certain Adrian Mutu so despite their atrocious yellow jerseys I always root for em'. Doesn't mean they'll make it out of the "Group of Death" ahead of Italy or Holland. But hey the draw vs France is still something you can hang your hat on.

Russia: Uhh..k I'll be honest, they all have names that end in -ov or -chenko or something ridiculous with a lot of consonants. I can't recognize a single player on that team. They've got some fight in em I guess but any team that lets up 4 goals can't possibly expect to make it out of their group. And they won't.

Spain: Goodness they are fun to watch. Their technical ability is unparalleled and they have hands down the best forward partnership in the tournament with David Villa and Fernando Torres. And I know I said before that Holland's van der Sar is arguably the best 'keeper in the tournament but I take that back now, Casillas is the best in the tournament, unarguably. Still, I'm not convinced by their defense. They're undisciplined and lack focus at times which will cost them against a predatory finisher like van Nistelrooy.

Sweden: Will finish 2nd in the group behind Spain and lose in the quarterfinals to a superior Holland side. That being said if there is one chance of a major upset its Sweden over Holland. So I guess this is a quasi-upset special but not really because I have faith in the Oranje.

Switzerland: Co-hosts so I'm rooting for them. They won't make it out of the group but I think they'll give at least one of the host nations something to cheer about when they pull the minor upset vs Turkey, even without their injured captain/all-time leading goalscorer.

Turkey: Baklava and kebabs aside, I'm just not feeling the Turks. They lack a distinct identity, another sort of enigma of a team that has talent in its ranks but just can't pull it together. Which is why they'll be the victim of my actual upset special when they fall to the Swiss.

So, to recap:
Group winners Portugal, Germany, Netherlands, and Spain will advance to the semi-finals and proceed to beat the hell out of each other. When the dust has settled Netherlands will be top of the pile with coach Marco van Basten, the man who hoisted the trophy as a player 20 years ago, lifting it once again to the delight of the Dutch. Golden Boot (top goalscorer) winner will be Ruud van Nistelrooy. Player of the tournament will be Wesley Sneijder. Or maybe selfish man purse wearing Portuguese prick who shall remain unnamed, can't count that guy out he's not half-bad. Now disregard everything I just said, I'm no Nastrodamus.

Striker: Miroslav Klose (FC Bayern Munich), Lukas Podolski (FC Bayern Munich), Mario Gomez (VfB Stuttgart), Kevin Kuranyi (FC Schalke 04), Oliver Neuville (VfL Borussia Monchengladbach) Spesialis TurnamenJerman merupakan salah satu negara dengan tradisi sepakbola besar di Eropa.
Negara yang berdiri pada tahun 1900 dengan nama Jerman Barat itu, merupakan negara yang paling sering tampil di kejuaraan yang dulu bernama European Nations' Cup.
Bukan itu saja. Jerman juga menjadi tim yang paling banyak merebut gelar juara sebanyak tiga kali yang diraih pada tahun 1972, 1980, dan 1996.
Di kancah Eropa terhitung dari babak kualikasi saja, Tim Panzer sudah memainkan laganya sebanyak 105 kali dengan mengemas 65 kemenangan, 27 bermain imbang, serta 13 kekalahan. Hebatnya, Tim Panzer mampu mencatat 211 gol dan hanya kebobolan sebanyak 74 gol.
Setelah sukses menyelenggarakan Piala Dunia 2006, meski hanya keluar sebagai peringkat tiga, Jerman mampu tampil apik di babak Kualifikasi Euro 2008 Grup D, produktivitas gol yang mereka catat sangat fantastis, 31 gol dalam 9 laga. Dan Jerman menjadi tim pertama yang memastikan diri lolos dari babak kualifikasi.
Mantan arsitek Juergen Klinsmann di Piala Dunia 2006, Joachim Loew yang ditunjuk untuk menjadi pelatih kepala, sukses menggabungkan kekuatan tua dan muda sehingga Jerman menjadi tim kuat dan berkelas.
Kini Joachim Loew yang disodori perpanjangan kontrak oleh Federasi Sepakbola Jerman, DFB, mempunyai misi ganda di Euro 2008. Loew harus lebih baik ketimbang Juergen Klinsmann yakni menjadi juara Eropa untuk menepis anggapan bahwa prestasi Jerman di Piala Dunia lalu terbantu karena faktor tuan rumah.
Selain itu, Loew juga harus mengembalikan otoritas Tim Panser di ajang Euro yang terakhir mereka raih di Euro 1996.
The Stars, Michael Ballack

Setelah era Franz Beckenbauer berakhir, kini muncul lagi pemain yang sangat berperan dan menjadi roh bagi Tim Panzer. Dia adalah Michael Ballack. Bintang tim Chelsea itu memang memegang penuh kunci permainan timnya di lapangan tengah.
Selain piawai dalam mengatur serangan dan memberikan umpan kepada rekannya di depan, mantan pemain Bayern Munich kelahiran 26 September 1976 itu juga lihai membantu pertahanan timnya.
Ballack memulai karirnya ketika memperkuat Chemnitzer FC sebelum kemudian hengkang ke FC Kaiserlautern. Penampilan gemilangnya bersama Kaiserlautern membuat Bayern Leverkusen terpikat untuk meminangnya.
Ballack hanya membutuhkan tiga tahun untuk memperkuat Leverkusen, sebelum akhirnya hijrah ke Bayern Munich. Bahkan, penampilan gemilang pemain berposisi gelandang itu bersama Bayern membuat Chelsea kepincut.
Jadi, apakah Ballack akan mampu meneruskan kesuksesan Beckenbauer di Euro dan membawa Tim Panzer merengkuh gelar juara untuk keempat kalinya. Kita lihat saja nanti?
Perkiraan Formasi: (4-4-2) Lehmann; Arne Friedrich, Mertesacker, Metzelder, Lahm; Fritz, Frings, Ballack, Schweinsteiger; Klose, Kuranyi
Kelebihan: Materi pemain antara skuad utama dan cadangan berkualitas samaPersaingan positif di lini depanKondisi tim positif usai Piala Dunia 2006

Kekurangan: Banyak pemain cederaKerap sulit meladeni permainan cepatPemain muda yang masih kurang pengalaman
Tim Panser Melaju

Description :

Aku ingin mendaki puncak tantangan,menerang batu granit kesulitan,menggoda mara bahaya,dan memecahkan misteri dengan sains.Aku ingin menghirup berupa-rupa pengalaman lalu terjun bebas menyelami labirin liku-liku hidup yang ujungnya tak dapat disangka.Aku mendamba kehidupan dengan kemungkinan-kemungkinan yang bereaksi satu sama lain seperti benturan molekul uranium : meletup tak terduga-duga,menyerap,mengikat,mengganda,berkembang,terurai,dan berpencar ke arah yang mengejutkan.Aku ingin ke tempat-tempat yang jauh,menjumpai beragam bahasa dan orang-orang asing.Aku ingin berkelana,menemukan arahku dengan membaca bintang gemintang.Aku ingin mengarungi padang dan gurun-gurun,ingin melepuh terbakar matahari,limbung dihantam angin, dan menciut dicengkeram dingin.Aku ingin kehidupan yang menggetarkan,penuh dengan penaklukan.Aku ingin hidup!Ingin menrasakan sari pasti hidup!.

Demam UERO 2008 Dimana-mana.........

Hore!!! Akhirnya UERO 2008 sudah didepan mata nie, kurang beberapa hari lagi lho........ Mata qta bisa terpuaskan sama orang bule yg caem2 itu tuh, Siapa lagi kalau bukan para pemain sepak bola yg mewakili negaranya masing2 untuk berperang di lapangan hijau demi mengharumkan nama negaranya tercinta.

Aq juga bisa puas melihat performa para pemain dari timnas JERMAN (ich lieben Ballack dkk.....) semoga sukses tuh sama yg namanya Ballack n friends.
Semoga DER PANSER (julukan buat timnas jerman) bisa masuk final diUERO2008.

Kata Mutiara nih.........................

Tak perlu didebat lagi, bahwa musik adalah salah satu obat yang ampuh untuk menemani atau menenangkan suasana hati. Lagu yang tepat di saat yang tepat akan membuat emosi kita semakin sempurna.

Memories and Legacies of Agatha Cristie

Don't let anyone ever say to you that nothing exciting ever happens to you when you are old.

Megalomaniac

Not just an Incubus song, kids. By definition, one who suffers from delusions of grandeur.

Exhibit A: Robinho

The Brazilian nino has just "revealed" that United have a proposal:

"There are proposals, yes. One is from Manchester United which would be in exchange for Cristiano Ronaldo and the other is from Chelsea."

Of course by revealed he really means fabricated out of thin air to make it seem like he's even remotely come close to fulfilling the potential he had 5 years ago which saw him dubbed "the next Pele" by none other than Pele himself. Truth is he hasn't. In 3 seasons with Real Madrid he's chalked up a paltry 35 goals in 131 appearances. To put that into perspective, Ronaldo scored 42 goals this season alone in just 48 games. And he's better looking. And he has hooker orgies. Sorry nino, can't win this one.
