Phantasmagoric Serie A Saturday with Juve-Inter and AC-Roma. Strictly going by the sides involved, a Juve win and Roma loss should technically tilt my evening towards the "disappointing" end of the see-saw but throw in The Usual Reject Ranieri staring down the barrel of his fastest ever firing and giving his bang-on-cue insipidly mediocre interview of "I'm happy with the way we played"... and suddenly the evening was blissfully unaware of the painful Giallorossi Lossi.. Plus Valencia punked Getafe, and Messi did the business thrice again on the Nou Camp lawns.
Meanwhile RM squeezed out yet another bitterly ascorbic victory at the San Sebastian. A really nice effect of the ManU thrashing is people can finally rethink the whole "perfectly sub-standard unknown gits end up being more effective than footballers with actual talent", although Diarra's continued presence mystifies this supposed effect. Of course his unknown sub-standardness is loads more tolerable than over rated sub-standardness of Khedira, but this season was supposed to be Alonso + Sahin in MF. Now I'm a little suspicious if actually playing was ever part of the transfer deal - he's been fit for a few weeks reportedly but still not even in the squad... Not sure how you fall foul of Mourinho without even playing or practicing, but I'm hoping Nuri Sahin is not "New Resign" soon, coz he's really pretty...
Arsenal beat Chelsea and are apparently title contenders again. Good for them. After all, delusion isn't too bad, once you sit down and get to know it... Though anyone making positive comments about their defence midweek must be feeling pretty stupid now, wait let me rephrase, anyone making positive comments about their defence must be feeling stupid 0.2 seconds after making said comment. Granted, 0.2 is quite a flattering assumption given the average brain of people who make positive Arsenal comments.
