I am depressed. Just saw the doctor this morning. Seems like my health is really getting worse. Got another stupid viral infection. Another dose of antibiotics to finish. Maybe my body is telling me that it is time to eat more greens and less meat?
I am depressed. How could a team with Champions League ambitions lose to a team who at this time last year was playing at The Championship? How could a team who had qualified 5th in the Premier League twice for the past two season be at 16th at this time of the season? How could a team with such an impeccable home record for the past two season lost to a team whose players I never even heard of? To be honest, with Man City, Everton, Blackburn, Aston Villa and Portsmouth having such a great start to their season, it would be a miracle if Spurs could finish in the top 6.
I am even more depressed when I see a team that I had always despise leading the table. Topping the League after selling that French Bastard who I got to admit was one of the best the League had seen over the last decade. What make it more depressing is the fact that they are playing sizzling attacking football on the way to the top. The fact that they had been compared to the Great Dutch team of 1974 really rub it in. The best Dutch team ever. The team that started the term, Total Football. The team that had the great Johan Cruyff. My favourite international team of all time. The type of football that my beloved Spurs were playing in 1991 that made me fell in love with them. Don't make me hate you even more, Arse Wanker.
Plus the fact that Holland is drawn together with France, Italy and Romania for their group matches in Euro 2008 really round it off. Part of me think that it is a good chance for us to seek revenge over the hyper defensive Italians for the defeat in Euro 2000 semi finals. Another part of me said that it might be the French and Italians who will have the last laugh. I am just hoping that the fact that Italy always start badly at a major championship to work against them. But to be honest, this group look really depressing for the Dutch.
The only thing that brighten up my day today was that Singapore amazingly beat Vietnam in the SEA Games. With two of the three goals being own goals, it seems like God was Singaporean for a day over in Thailand.
The match that made me love Spurs ever since.
You can take a picture of something you see. In the future where will I be?
