I love football. There is just no getting away from it. It's in my blood. I have alot of friends who just don't understand my love of the game. I can't even put it into words. You either get it or you don't. When England got knocked out of the World Cup yesterday, I was heartbroken. Completely. It's penalties, they leave me feeling terrible. Now everytime the World Cup starts, I always know that england aren't that great. My head tells me that, I see how they play, I see them in comparison to other teams, and I know we aren't going to win. Somewhere in the middle of that competition, my heart takes over. I don't know if it's an overdose of football all round, or getting caught up with the passion of the English people. I just start to have a blind faith, and I give my heart to the team. Only to be disappointed everytime. That's the beauty of football though, you have to take the highs with the lows. I believe that before I die, I will see England lift the World Cup, and that will do me. I'll appreciate it, just that bit more.
On a different note, and becoming slightly more bitter. I am a Manchester United fan. I love my team completely. Christiano Ronaldo plays for us. I don't want him. I don't want him back at Man Utd. I want him sold. I have put up with his arrogance, and his showing off. I have defended him to those that have called him a one trick pony. I have told them he is young, and he doesn't know what he is doing, and that he will turn into one of the worlds greats. I still firmly believe that. I don't want him at Man Utd though. He can be great elsewhere. His attitude, and his behaviour towards his fellow team mates at United stunk, and I don't want someone like that on my team. I will not support someone like that. I have told a few people that, and they have said, but he is your best player. I just don't care. I really don't. The whole team could be based around him, for all I care, and I still wouldn't want him. As it goes, our team isn't built around him. He is replacable. He will be replaced. We don't want you anymore Ronaldo.
It's a horrible day today. All grey and horrible. It's really hot, but there is rain and thunder. Not nice. It doesn't feel like I have seen any light today. I woke up feeling upset about the World Cup. Because it will be on for another week, and I will enjoy the football, but it just feels like my heart is out of it now. I have no passion left in it, and I would so love to have that passion left in it. If England had reached the semi's I would be on top of the world. Even if we hadn't reached the final, I would of been satisfied. Becks was a wonderful captain, and I am sorry to see him go, I really am. He did a great job, and I hope he ignores all the crap the Press are giving him. They just know he sells papers. Anyway I guess we have to wait another four years. *sigh*
On a different note, this means JU will be getting alot more attention again, haha, aren't you all pleased! Hehe!
