PART 13


page 129

(latest) paean to Alejandro G

Erik doth spake: 

‘Today he came on and scored a goal and did almost everything good and that will give him belief for the rest of the season. One of the aspects for the biggest talent is that first they take responsibility and second they are mature, have belief that they can dominate opponents and once again he did it.’

(man utd 2 wolves 0)


page 130

Christian E doth spake

beating Wolves

means

13 of 17 home Premier League

jamborees are won this season:

‘We know where we can pick up extra points, because at home, at the moment we're feeling very, very secure,’

doth

spake

Christian E;

gadzooks - we are away next, at Bournemouth;

still another full week to prepare while

Man City have Real Madrid visiting

over

at their place 

in the east of the town;

the Real of Toni Kroos, Luka Modric, Thibaut Cortois, Rodrygo, Vincius Junior, Karim Benzema

arrived 1-1 with Pep’s Boys from the first leg in Spain and there will be theatre and high stakes and the night stoked up

by these powerhouses;

where did nights like these go for our lads and our crowd?

our generation grows old, greybearded, and we never reach beyond the 

Champs League since HE left.

Sir Alex.

quarter-finals: twice - versus Bayern Munich under Moyes

and Barcelona

under Solskjaer;

City whack Real 4-0, they obliterate them;

are given an unwanted doctorate in how to be taken apart.

City are in the Champs League final the FA Cup final;

they WIN the Premier League on Saturday

while we on the Saturday are victorious at Bournemouth, 1-0: two victories in a-row.

it will never catch on!!!
