Something Nice That Came Along...

At one point or another, things does not go a person's way no matter how dedicated or deserving one is. This has been the story that seems to have wrapped my life the past few months. Its been tough to be honest, I have no money, struggling with a foreign language and culture, oh and by the way, having to restart with the job hunting situation. Anything and everything seems to have been getting worse and worse...

But sometimes, despite the crap that is thrown into our depressing life, when you have been brought down and kicked on the teeth time and again, something nice comes along... On 29-30 July, I will have the privilege of watching Manchester United for two straight days in Munich. For a mere €30 and a train ticket from Christin, I will have the pleasure of watching United v Boca Juniors and FC Bayern v AC Milan on the same amazingly wonderful football day! To top that, I will get to see all four teams the following day as the winners play one another, while the losers fight for 3rd place.

To make things even better, I will actually get to hang out with my bestfriend Irene in Munich for a few nights. And lets give her credit in advance for letting me crash with her... Also, credit to Christin for this wonderful gift, I will stop telling the bike story from my birthday last year...

Anyways, like Christin said, maybe this is the start of a great streak for me, maybe things really do pick up from here on. If it doesn't, I will at least have a smile on my face for four days. I will be watching the club I love, singing my heart out, drinking Paulaner and reminiscing about the old times with my favourite Austrian...

So, if you're having some sort of trouble at the moment, chin up. Your break will come...

£80m Ronnie...

I'm not too bothered to see Cristiano go to be honest. The player was a good servant to the club due to his skills which can not be doubted. I must say though that I was never truly fascinated by him compared to my other United heroes such as Cantona, Beckham and vNistelrooy. I always had the feeling he never gave his all to the club, having mentioned his desire to go to the Bernabeu around the 06/07 season.

With that said, no player is bigger than Manchester United. The club will move on like it always had. We can surely expect Sir Alex Ferguson to make a move in the coming weeks with the intent to find a replacement for Cristiano.

I'm really hopeful that United try to sign Ribery of FC Bayern, Gourcuff of Bordeaux and Aguerro of Atletico Madrid. Any two combination of the three would really make my summer transfer season...

Thanks for the £80mil Ronnie...
