GIANTS CLASH!!!

chelsea-vs-manutd_resize

It’s that time of the year when the years two best teams face head to head at Stamford Bridge,home of Chelsea FC to prove that only one of them is “THE” BEST. I would be tricky for Man Utd considering the fact that they are away from home and Chelsea are on a roll. Stamford Bridge is no walk in the park for Man Utd since they haven’t won a game there for atleat 10 years staight. But everyone could be in for a surprise today. Anything could happen. Sparks will fly, Words exchanges at the heat of the moment, Flashes of brilliance and that is what will help either team win the match. All we fans hope for is that we get a great game of football that we can relish for the rest of our lives. It should be “The” Best Game.

Rajster’s Prediction:

Hmmn. This is a tough one. Being a Man Utd Fan i hate to see my team lose but at the same time it would be a fierce contest and i go for a 2-2 draw with Rooney & Valencia on the scoresheet for the Red Devils & a brace from Drogba for the Blues.

ITS FINAL!!!

barcvsmanIt’s decided people…And after 95 mins you gotta feel for Chelsea, they were on top for say 93 mins and then they were robbed of a place in the Champions League final in the cruellest of fashions. Poor Chelsea(and they were talking about beating Man Utd in the final…first reach there mates). So Iniesta who broke many hearts will be worshipped all over Spain. But not for long. Come May 27 and we will know why United are the best in the world. And as for Chelsea, Mr.Drogba you simply cannot do what you did after the match!!! “You are a f**kin disgrace” since you did that. That will keep you out for sometime. Chelsea can go on and on about refereeing decisions and UEFA not wanting 2 english teams in the Final and all that crap but all that matters is at full time all that mattered was as i wrote before “An Away Goal”. So get ready for a cracker, brace yourselves, the RED DEVILS are in full throttle to paint ROME RED!!! Glory Glory Man Utd!!!

ROAD TO ROME-SEMI FINALS-A PREVIEW

champions-league-trophy-417827602

It can’t get any better, can it??? Two rivetting games on the block and we are in for some exciting action. Let’s see how the games will unfold in a sneak preview.

SEMI FINAL – 1

20060306barcavschelseaqc7The first leg of this semi final clash was a total non entertainer. FCB were held to a tame goalless draw by Chelsea at nou camp. The Catalans looked out of sorts and Messi was surrounded by huge Chelsea players. Now the teams move to Stamford Bridge where we can expect fireworks for sure. Chelsea are in rollicking form at home. And who could just forget their quarter final clash against liverpool. That was one of the best. But never underestimate the Catalan giants, they come in fresh after a thumping “REAL” 6-2 thrashing and are not going to make things easy for Chelsea. What can we expect…an all out entertaining match.

Rajster Predicts: With a recent good showing in the EPL, Chelsea may be favorites but the away goals will be a deciding factor. A fierce and well fought game which Chelsea will eventually  win  2-1. Drogba and Anelka on the scoresheets for Chelsea and Henry for the Nou Campers.

SEMI FINAL – 2

ronscribarsenalvsmanutdThe first leg encounter between the two teams at Old Trafford ended with Man Utd. edging Arsenal out with a single goal. But they could have had many. Now the action shifts to the Emirates Stadium,London where Arsenal have a record to show. It will be tough and expect a cracker of a game once again. Manchester United have a slender edge but an early away goal will put all the pressure on Arsenal and it will be tough coming back after that. Arsenal look more like a medical ward with injuries to Eduardo, Clichy, Van Persie, Silvestre, and it goes on. So with injury problems galore Arsene Wenger will have a tough time coming with a perfect combination to stop the red Devils. The only advantage Arsenal has is that they re at home and it is not going to be easy for Man Utd.

Rajster Predicts : The away goal will be a crucial factor again and Man Utd will win with a 1-0 or go down 2-1 to arsenal but still go through on away goals. Rooney on the scorecards and Van Persie(if he plays) and Adebayor for the Gunners.

Rajster’s Dream Final——–> Manchester United  FC vs Chelsea FC (a repeat of 2008)

REPURCUSSIONS OF THE OUTSIDE WORLD

Been pretty long since my last post, its not that i didn’t have any time to blog ,i just didn’t feel complete to make a post. And everyday something new happens in this mad mad world. So felt like sharing my views on some of the interesting things happening around.

SETTING AN EXAMPLE

Wondering what all this is about??? It’s the man who never fails to impress you with his acts. OBAMA is the name. He has accepted in public that his decision on choosing the cabinet members was wrong. Now tell me one President who would do that. Hats off to u MR.PRESIDENT. And news is that he has also banned smoking in the white house(being a chain smoker himself). Now thats what i call “Playing By The Rules”.

A.R.RAHMAN

argolden2_fullI think the name says it all. Congrats to ARR for bringing the BAFTA and GOLDEN GLOBE home. and all thats left is the OSCAR. I’m sure hed bring that home too. Hats off to u Rahman ji. I wanted to make a more detailed post on Rahman, but ill do it sometime else. And have you people heard Delhi-6, if you haven’t try it and get mesmerized. Jai Ho!!!

SLUMDOG-THE BUZZ WORD

slum-dog-millionaireYes, the whole world is talking about it and i am no exception. I’d say its an exceptional movie with a taut screenplay to woo the audiences. The only thing that puts me off is that it is not an INDIAN movie, it’s a Brits movie based on the INDIAN SLUMS with INDIAN actors. I do not see any fairness in the INDIAN MEDIA going gaa ga over it being an INDIAN movie. If at all it wins an OSCAR, it is going straight to Mr.Danny Boyle’s showcase and not comin to India. We should only be proud if Rahman gets 1 for his mindblowing Soundtrack,which he ultimately will. Impossible is Nothing.

GAME-SET-MATCH!!!

b_nadal_1_17This years AUSTRALIAN OPEN saw some of the best tennis ever played. Big seeds crashed out in the men’s draw and for all those who expected the finals would be the most entertaining match, enter FeRNANDO VERDASCO and it was all a dream.

b_verdasco_30_11

Whoa!!! that boy sure knows to play his aces well. He made Nadal run for his money in the Semi-Final setting the longesst ever battle down under at 5h 14m. And the end result of the semi final read 6-7,6-4,7-6,6-7,6-4. And if that wasn’t enough with just a day’s gap in between Nadal had to play RF in the FINALS. And for all those who thought

b_federer_1_11

For all who thought he is old,

For all who thought he has lost it,

For all who thought he can’t be NO.1 again.

You were right. NADAL was his NEMESIS and this time down under. All federer could do was CRY at the trophy presentation ceremony, this time out of sheer frustration. NADAL is here to stay.

b_bhupati_feb_01

It wasn’t such a bad outing for INDIANS too down under. SANIA(ya you heard that right!!) and MAHESH tasted victory in the Mixed Doubles winning the title with atmost ease. Their temprament was outstanding and i was all at sea watchin SANIA play. They called all the shots!!! one should say.

AUSTRALIA DUMIN-ATED

97605That was the story the whole cricketing world is talking about. Australia lost the test series to South Africa 2-1 and literally speaking they lost it to one man JEAN PAUL DUMINY. The Duminy factor turned matches on its heels and knocked australia off the top position in ICC WORLD TEST & ODI RANKINGS. Duminy was just too hot to handle even for the mighty Aussies.

LIONS HUNTED

indThe Lankan Lions were Humbled by Dhoni’s Boys at their own backyard. The men in blue pipd the Lankans 4-1 in a 5 match ODI series and BROTHERS IN ARMS(Yusuf & Irfan Pathan) destroyed any hope of their T20 Win. Hmmn!!! the big question is WHERE IS MENDIS NOW??? it’s all for u to answer, use your imagination.

YES W.I CAN!!!

98842West Indies(W.I) humiliated England by bowling them out for just 51 runs in the first test at the Carribean. A lead of just 74 runs was more than enough to get an innings victory. Glimpses i shoud say of perfect fast bowling display by JR TAYLOR and CO has left England in the Ruins. Hmmn!!! Too hot to handle i guess??

SOLD OUT!!!

_42361683_kpfredpa416IPL saw yet another auction and Dhoni was jointly Pipd by KP and FREDDIE as the highest paid being sold for a record price of 1.65m(7.65 Crores). Thats a lotta money. Chennai Super Kings bagged Flintoff and The Test team of Mr.Mallya The Bangalore Royal Challengers Bagged KP. Among other big names Neeta Ambani povketed Duminy and Juhi Chawla pocketed Mortaza for $650,000 almost 12 times his base prize. All we can do is wait and watch all these Fishes in action to say who got the best catch!!!

CHEL-SACK!!!

scolari-412

Chelsea has sprung out yet another surprise showing the door to LUIZ FELIPE SCOLARI. Just 7 months into his job SCOLARI was shown the exit by Chelsea Owner Roman Abrahamovich. It is to note that he was the third manager in 18 months. And he was sacked because they were losing…thats Saddddddddddd!!! And now Guus Hiddink is on board lets just see how long he stays or is made stay.

ON TOP!!!

Manchester United beat all odds and are now sitting pretty on the top of the Championship table. And they have gone the longest without conceding a goal. Now that’s quite an achievement. Glory Glory Man Utd!!!

AHEM BRAHMASMEE!!!

naan-kadavul

RATING: bw-star-4

Finally the spectacle had arrived. Bala’s magnum opus Naan kadavul was released a week ago and has surpassed all expectations. Watching it was a magical experience and such films should be entertained. It was pure cinema(more hard hitting than bala’s any other creation). The way in which he had potrayed the Underworld mafia and life of AGHORI saints makes the film worth the wait. And to top it all was some spellbinding performances from ARYA and POOJA(National awards confirmed!!!). And if all that wasn’t just enough there was Maestro Ilayaraja who made a strong impact with his superficial music. A winner of all sorts is this movie. Although the family audiences and faint hearted may call it crude, the movie is here to stay and take TAMIL CINEMA to greater heights. Ahem Brahmasmee!!!!

KABBADI KABBADI!!!

vennila-kabadi-kuzhuRATING: bw-star-4

Yet another impressive attempt on the silverscreen. Although it runs on the lines of Chak De!!, Lagaan etc…this one is fresh…very fresh. The director has coming out in flying colours with wat ever he wanted to tell the audiences. Although the climax could have been different, this one makes an impact. The comedy is impeccable esp. the one in the Parotta Stall. Watching it in Trichy made it all the more special. Awesome performances with some well etched characters this movie will always be close to your heart. And it is also based on a true story. Well done Director.

WHO’S DUNNIT????

When the indian police and government are busy finding how Pakistan was involved, there is this funny man named Yusuf Raza Gilani who amazingly is the PM of Pakistan who has found different answers for the question. The Answer is a different “NO” everytime in different voice modulations. And the biggest comedy of all is they are also declaring Kasab as a terrorist and want him handed over to them so that they could try him(What atrocious comedy!!!). Now atleast today they hav accepted 26/11 was planned in Pakistan(Finally!!!). Now they will take another year to actually plan what to do next. Phew!!

SRI RAM SENA

Pera ketta Udaney Summa Athirudhilla!!!(After hearing the name it shakes u!!! Literally). It seems their main activity is to go around kicking and creating controversies. 2 girls beaten up at a mangalore pub. Hmmn tomro its Valentines Day, i guess they will be keenly watchin as to kick whose butt and they call it MORAL Policing. Jai Muthalik!

And my brain is drained now, so until next post ALVIDA!!!
