No UEFA Champions League (UCL) please, We are English Club!

Again, this season is another awful season for English Club in UCL. This is the second time for them to be absent from the UCL quarter final party in the last three years. Starting this UCL season with 4 (Four) representatives, but then when the stage comes to the Big 8, the English scent is faded away from UCL atmosphere. Three English teams have been knocked out in the round of 16. Man City was totally outclassed by Barcelona, Arsenal was struck by hard-working AS Monaco, and Chelsea was so passionless to face 10 brave men of PSG. Yet, Liverpool was the worst. They even failed to avoid the group elimination despite only sorted in the “easy” group. They failed to accompany Real Madrid from that “easy” group.

Adnan Januzaj : Sekali Berarti, Kemudian Menepi

Sebagian besar pendukung Manchester United mungkin tanpa pikir panjang akan berkata musim 2013/2014 adalah musim yang layak dilupakan. Melihat hasil akhir klasemen liga Inggris dan beberapa rekor buruk yang dipecahkan selama musim tersebut, membuat DVD Season Review 2013/14 adalah barang yang sulit ditemui di rak koleksi DVD penggemar setia The Red Devils. Tetapi, tak semua pihak akan sependapat dengan hal itu, setidaknya mungkin Adnan Januzaj akan beranggapan lain.

Remaja kelahiran Brussels ini adalah salah satu tulang punggung Manchester United musim lalu di bawah arahan David Moyes. Mampu mengirim umpan dari sayap kiri juga handal menyisir dari sisi kanan menjadi modal utama remaja kelahiran 1995 tersebut dalam menembus persaingan posisi sayap United di musim pertamanya promosi ke tim utama.

Defensive Midfielder: The Unsung Hero and The Silent Warrior


In case you meet any children who really enthusiast about football and you ask him who is his favorite football player, in this day, they will apparently say a group of these footballers, like Iker Casillas, Gianluigi Buffon, Frank Lampard, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, etc. It is very rare for those children to say player like Xabi Alonso, Sergio Busquets, Danielle De Rossi, Michael Carrick as their favorite football players. This also happens to the most people who do not like and do not really know about football. They will apparently express the same things about their favorite footballers. However, in girl cases, their favorite player is every footballers who has good-looking and cool faces. LoL.


That phenomena is merely natural remembering those mentioned player are clearly amazing and always consistent in performance. Furthermore, the case of favorite player for most people is normally affected by the amount of goals, assist, dribble, and saves that created by the players, individually. That’s why the name like Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Manuel Neuer, are more familiar than players like Sergio Busquets, Michael Carrick and Xabi Alonso or other players who has role as defensive midfielder, or the holding midfielder.
