Not a good day

Not sure what happened to Noels body today but he was suffering with a number of things which I wont describe but it meant he weas grounded.  On the plus side when checking the TV we found they had Sky Sports and were showing the Chelsea and Manchester City game. In the first half we did not do too bad and missed at least three good chances to score. In the second half, City scored and the boys gave up. Also the usual playing out from the back failed again with unfortunately Caicido getting mugged after receiving the ball from Sanchez and that was another goal.

Chelsea 0 MAN City 3333333!


I really don't understand their way of playing, pretty much always from the back and having to run the complete length of the field hoping to catch the opposition out, this works if your team can run faster than the opposition but they cant, so its pointless. When I used to play we kicked the ball as far as we can up field and put pressure immediately on the other team. Also nobody tries to shoot from outside the penalty area except when their is free kick. I wish I could be in their dressing room and tell them what's for.

By the evening the writer was feeling better and trying to analyze what went wrong, it could have been a number of things over the past 24 hours so difficult to pinpoint.

In the evening we watched some of our usual You Tube travel channels. And thus to bed
