HEE!! Premier League champions for the 11th time!! After watching the replay (minus nervous beating heart) I went to bed ridiculously late, which wasn’t a good idea since I was heading to Gina’s house for flamenco practice at 7am. Gina’s in Grade 5 which is great because she helps clarify a lot of the Grade 3 syllabus I’m working through now. She’s also from Lancashire, but her husband is a Blackburn Rovers fan. The brain of this Manchester United fan does not comprehend.
Gina: Alan, this is Bella. She’s the girl I told you about.
Alan: Which one?
Gina: The Manchester United fan.
Alan: Good lord… the one that cried when she visited Old Trafford?
Me: Uh, hi?
Alan: Next time you come over you’ll be served coffee in a Rovers cup.
He commented on the game against Arsenal, which I agreed was rather lacklustre on United’s part until very late in the second half. We both did notice that Arsenal were playing the exact formation United played in when they kicked Arsenal out of the Champions League semifinal (2nd leg). Goes to show Arsene Wenger can still learn a few tricks from Sir Gaffer.
There is only one plea for the off-season: please keep Carlos Tevez. IF TEVEZ DOESN’T STAY I’M GOING TO SPEND THE ENTIRE NEXT SEASON ABUSING BERBATOV. DON’T ASK ME WHY, I JUST LIKE ABUSING BERBATOV.
