Asante Cazorla, and Del Bosque agrees!

Nothing has been won yet, actually far from it. That screamer against West Ham in the derby is a memory to hold. A goal that can be augured to be of lesser oomph, in some realms, as that of his compatriot- who he is so often  erroneously compared to- against Juventus or even Ac Milan in the Champions League : the new number 9 for the all conquering Spanish national team,Cesc Fabregas.

Guess who's in town: tumbler

 Nonetheless we are so thankful. Heck, so much so that we chose to corrupt Santi to Asante (Swahili for Thanks). Wenger says Cazorla is a delight to watch every minute he's on the pitch and we agree. From what we have seen, Asante is often what you want to say every other time he takes on the pitch; both to God and to the man for displaying talents bestowed upon him.

Indeed it is scare to come across such a kind who adds genuine endeavor to a sea full of talent as Cazorla does. Only the very best can do that. Find the balance between brawn and brain. This is not a post for statistics as we will chose to wait until the figures complete the already set drive towards mind blowing. We just want to say: Asante Cazrola; as your national manger points out, we await to witness your becoming of a better footballer and a complete man.

Arsenal vs. Olympiacos A test of Depth

Olympiacos. Whenever I come across that, am reminded of Gilberto Silva’s move to the Greek champions. The Brazilians’ sale has to be the least trumpeted departure of The Departures of recent past. Just a few murmurs at Arsenal’s neck of the hood in blogosphere; on how Wenger should have let the World Cup winner with Brazil hang about the dressing room and pass on words of defensive wisdom to the likes of Song and Flamini or maybe even just help mould the young minds, Fabregas et. al, on how to better The Invincibles.

Welcoming Olympiacos tomorrow to the Emirates, thought is centered on the best thing since sliced bread Gilberto: Arteta. Afflicted by an ankle injury probably picked up at training, the Spaniard awaits to be cleared by pregame tests. This probably means he didn’t train that much with the rest of the team but being not only so pivotal, but so a seasoned hand in his trade a Diaby kind of gamble may just be at hand.

Upfront: Arsenal vs. Chelsea The Mind Games

Upfront seems to be the keyword; that is  62 pounds at MINIMUM it will cost you; and who will play (that word) for Arsenal ii against Chelski come Saturday’s early kick off London derby at the Emirates; financially and football-speaking  respectively.

On the back of the news of freshly minted cash- 36million pound net profit made by Arsenal PLC the past financial year as per the released end year returns, all that bloody dough made in the midst of a hostile investment climate globally, most certainly Europe, as rightly pointed out by Wenger; understandable it is why tagging entry to London’s hottest sporting event since the XXXX Olympiad at such a premium finally makes its way as trending sports news in mainstream media.

This ‘revelation’ unmasked way after the deed had been done when the big dogs at Arsenal decided on the abridged ticket prices structure.

Santi Cazorla Karibu Arsenal

Heading off to work today suffering I was from intractable Monday blues. Maybe it was the fine August weather that screamed holiday, maybe it’s because schools are out on holiday. I loathed my career choice, wishing to be a teacher, to get enjoy the school breaks with the kiddies. So intense was the feeling that for an untempth time, like many an adult, I wished to be kid once again
.
People, I got my wish. Cazorla is in and it feels like Christmas when I still believed in Santa Claus.

Early morning surfing on the phone, Cazorla Santi was still a ghost deal. The evidence was everywhere:  footprints in the mud, rearranged furniture, eerie sounds but no sight of the form responsible. Inside, it felt as a kid, like that unsettling wait for the holidays when daddy would take you camping. Like an orgasm that wouldn’t burst into fireworks.
