Ah, my fellow sigh meisters, there are quite a few things to write about in H.T’s world of football:
1) MEGA SIGH!! Mcghees has lost their first game of the season, going down 6-5 to Dirk’s Digglers in a tightly contested affair. The lost was mainly due to dodgy keeping on the night and somewhat poor defending and a bit of bad luck with Rob doing his best Raph impersonation and Raph being busy with work so he can’t come. Still, we should be set to make the semis and then choke in the finals once again in our quest for Div1 promotion.
2) Ultimate SIGH!! Bayern Munich lost against Schalke last week 2-0, apparently from looking at the high lights we weren’t bad, but we did waste heaps of chances and Neuer (the Schalke+Germany GK) made heaps of saves. This loss still leaves us lightyears behind Dortmund in terms of the championship and the best we can hope for is probably 2nd and ECL qualification. We did win against St pauli over the weekend but that’s expected, with 1 more game to go against stuttgart before the winter break we’re currently sitting in 5th.
3) Ultimate YAY!! Schweinsteiger just announced that he will extend his contract with Bayern till 2016, which means him, Lahm (best WB in the world), Badstuber and Mueller and Ribery are all staying till 2016. This will provide us with a good platform to grow for the next few seasons, provided the management buys us a new youngish GK, a world class CB and a striker that can score (Dzeko? Tevez? Torres?). But the core of the team is set, provided Toni Kroos stays and keeps improving.
Think that’s enough sighing for now. Until next time~!
Not taking Torres!
