The days would have been better if there’s no international football. Don’t get me wrong, but hell, i dislike international football! Not only because my country will never get into the spolights and still have nothing good to talk about, but hey club football is where my interest goes.
I used to be an England supporter but the more i follow the game, the more i figure out that too many non football s**t has been involved and England, i’m not sure if they can go beyond qualifications, group stages, quarters and semis in all competitions. So, well, you know, what more can i say.
Apology for all biases covered here in Manchestered.com, but hey this is a Manchester United fan blog.
However, our team is build upon international footballers. Like always, our players are seen in international stages. Some roundup below:
- Tevez was red carded at Argentina’s draw to Paraguay. Heinze helped Paraguay by smashes his own goalkeeper (more like Kaka’s goal at Old Trafford in 2006/2007′s CL when he collided with Evra) and let the ball went to their own goal.
- Patrice Evra was featured at France’s 1-3 lost to Austria.
- New boy Berbatov featured at Bulgaria’s draw.
- Vidic was in the Serbian squad lead them a 2-0 win against Faroe Islands.
- Johny Evans was in the Northern Ireland’s defeated squad in Slovakia.
- Darren Fletcher was in the Scotland side beaten 0-1 by Macedonia.
- Wayne was in the England winning side while Wes Brown sat on the bench and Rio was out for injury (no more news about how bad his injury is… hope he’s ready for the Scousers!).
- John O Shea was at the center back position where his Republic of Ireland side beat Georgia 2-1.
Enough about internationals, now back to the important matters. As we all know, next week we’ll travel to Anfield, Liverpool. There’s always massive rivalries between the 2 sets of teams against each other. Liverpool has shown their lack of inconsistencies for the whole season, year by year, but not against us. Their captain ‘wishes us to die’, so we will hoping a super hostile atmosphere thrown by home supporters, as always.
In the good side i’m hoping for a Berbatov debut in Anfield and faces his former Tottenham’s hero Robbie Keane. Cannot wait for the Liverpool game, really. This is one of the most massive game in all season. More details on players should be announced in the next few days but the wait for Berba’s debut is super exciting.
Enough with the boring international weekend, exciting days is ahead of us!
