Not yet...

I hate this transfer thingy.
Especially this year.

Barry saga is still on and becoming to get complicated.
Barry wants to be a Red.
Villa wants ￡18m for him.
Liverpool doesn't want to pay it.
And Villa doesn't think Finn is worth ￡2m.

Yes I know that the balding manager
doesn't need Finn anymore
now that he has a young Swiss international right back.
I don't know why they want to use Finn
as a makeweight for Barry
but think if O'Neill wants Finn it would be good for him.

But some paper said that Finn was reluctant to join Villa
as part of the deal.
Fair enough.
He wants to fight for the place at Liverpool.
I will support him whatever he wants.
But Finn, when your manager doesn't want you,
how would you make him to play you?

I really hate this.
I hate Rafa B, very much.

Ca va?

Suruga Bank Championship 2008 Osaka
took place in Japan tonight.
It is a match played between the league cup winners
of Japan and Argentine.
Gamba Osaka vs Arsenal FC.

I wasn't interested in this match.
But Gamba have my favourite GK(Fujigaya)
and right back(Kaji),
I started to watch the game.
I didn't know about Arsenal FC at all.

But lo and behold!
There was Sava, playing for Arsenal!
Facundo Sava, our Man in the Mask!

I was surprised and pleased very much
as I really liked him when he was playing for Fulham
and was very sad when he left.

He hasn't changed much.
He won every header and still had lovely mullet!

He had a good game tonight.
I was wondering if he had a mask in his sock
but I couldn't find it out
because he was replaced around 75th minutes.
It's a shame as he had a few good chaces to score
but I was happy to see him fit and well.


Gamba Osaka 0-1 Arsenal FC


Facundo won another title.
It is not a very big one,
but he and his teammates seemed very happy.
Conglatulations!

Comes-and-goes

Long time no see (I know nobody misses it).

It may be a part of the off-season syndromes
as I didn't have a gut to talk about my beloved Fulham...
I have been in the mood of "I don't like football. It sucks!"
I needed a rest...

But the transfer rumours don't wait.

Fulham have got Gera and Andranik.
Alright.
But we lost Brian.
We know he would leave sometime as he wanted to go back to USA
but I am very sad, very very sad.
Who will replace him?
EJ? He might be , as a striker...
But who will be Captain?
Aaron? Bully?(will he stay?)

Rumour has it that Aston Villa want Finn as a part of the Barry deal,
so he doesn't seem to be back to Fulham.
Although Finn had declared to fight for the RB berth at Anfield ,
no one seemed to care, including his Manager...

Anyway, my beloved Fulham will go to South Korea
for the pre-season friendlies.
Very good chance to watch the Whites as I live in Japan.

Anyone out there (that has time to see my blog)
is going to the eastern country?
If there is someone, please let me know.
I need a White or two to go with and talk to.

Photo of the Season

Sorry for my sentiment.


























I don't care they will wear the same shirts (white, of course)next season.


A new Red, Philipp Degen seems to be confident
to get the RB place from Finn and Al.
Wao...
Let's see.

Off -season syndrome

I'm feeling blue these days.

No football on Saturday.
No excitement, joy or sorrow on Saturday.
And those irritating, nerve-wracking transfer rumours!

We've got Schwarzer.
I know he is a good GK
but a bit disappointed that we couldn't get Jussi or Maik
if we really need a GK
as we already have two good GKs.
I didn't realise that our priority was a goalie.
But now that Roy thought otherwise,
I really wish Mark will do a good job for us
as I know we will need his heroics on some occasions.

As for the RB situation,
of course I would be happy if Finn would come back to us
( though I want him to fight for the RB berth at Liverpool to be honest ),
but why Mendy?
I've never rated him and I don't really like him.
He may be free but Paul Stalteri would be a better option, wouldn't he?
He has done a decent job for us and he wants to join us.
Please Roy, please.

Eight players were released.
I feel sorry for Boca.
He might have not been a great defender
(he was sent off vs Villa at Loftus Road and it was the first Fulham game I attended)
but he scored some precious goals for us.
Thanks and good luck to them who had to go.

So Fulham will go to South Korea for the pre-season friendlies.
Why not Japan?
Japan is the better place to play football apparently.
Of course it's because of LG.
Alright then.
I have to manage to join you the Whites fans.
Luckily, I live in a place called Fukuoka
where is very near to SK it will be cheaper than to fly to Tokyo.

Well, there is some good thing during the off-season!


Another interesting game to watch tommorrow.
England vs USA at Wembley.
Boca, Clint and EJ are in the American team.
I hope our lads will play well and beat England.
COYAW !

We are in the Premier League!

Sorry, lads.
I just can't believe this.

Until Murphy scored, I couldn't see this.
We started very well but couldn't score
but neither did they.
We defended well, very well.
So I had a hope we might win and survive
even though other rival teams were winning.


We had to score and win to stay up, as simple as that.

And we did score!

76th minute, from Jimmy's FK , Murphy's header!
I haven't seen the Danny's header until this,
this really crucial moment .

After that we defended even better
and we got 3 precious points.
In my tears, I lost my words and I just praised our lads,
Manager and Uncle Mo.
Also the great applause to the brave people
who went to Pompey,
I could hear your chants and it made me feel I was not alone.























Alright, we must improve to win the title
(which Man U have just won)
but with this squad we will be more comfortable next season, I hope...

I believe in you

Come on you Whites!
