Nu mai am cuvinte pentru ce joaca zilele acestea Arsenal Londra, mai ales ca lipsesc jucatori de baza precum, Fabregas, van Persie sau Walcott. Aceasta echipa merita si trofee, pe care le astept in 2010! Go Gunners!
PS: cel mai mult m-am bucurat pentru golul lui Song, unul dintre cei mai eficienti jucatori de la Arsenal in ultimele luni.

Multumita celor de la Adevarul, am reusit sa citesc una dintre operele clasice ale literaturii franceze. ca orice opera clasica, si in avarul avem de-a face cu insusiri duse la extrem. In “Avarul” sunt prezentate doua tipuri principale de insusiri, avaritia, prin Harpagon si linguseala prin mai multe personaje, dintre care se evidentiaza Valere si Frosine.
Apropierea dintre cele doua categorii se poate realiza citind replica lui Valere din debutul piesei:
Valere: Vezi ca ma pricep la asta si ce comportament abil si de complezenta am afisat pentru a-i intra in gratii; sub ce masca de simpatie si ce etalare de sentimente ma ascund pentru a-i placea si ce personaj joc in fiecare zi pana cand ii voi cuceri bunavointa. Fac progrese admirabile in acest sens si descopar ca, pentru a castiga increderea oamenilor, nu exista solutie mai buna decat sa fii asa cum vor ei, sa le citezi maximele, sa le treci cu vederea defectele si sa aplauzi ceea ce fac. Nu trebuie san e fie teama decat de prea multa complezenta si de felul in care ne putem preface, caci cei mai vicleni sunt intotdeauna cei mai vicleni in lingusire; si nu exista nimic atat de impertinent si atat de ridicol incat sa nu fie inghitit atunci cand il condimentezi cu laude. In meseria pe care o face eu, sinceritatea are un pic de suferit: dar, cand ai nevoie de oameni, trebuie sa te dai dupa ei si, de vreme ce nu putem sa sa-i castigam decat asa, atunci nu este vina celor care lingusesc , ci a celor care vor sa fie lingusiti.
Cam asa inchei eu anul din punct de vedere literar!

Portsmouth – Arsenal
Arsenal -1 @ 1.94 (pinnacle)
Arsenal plays their last match of 2009, away, against one of worst team in Premiership, at least if we look at the current standings. portsmouth is 20th, last team in the table, with only 14 points after 19 matches. An unofficial premiership rule says that if a team want to avoid relegation, they have to make 40 points, and looking at Portsmouth, this thing looks almost impossible. Arsenal, on the other hand, plays abolutely enthusiastic in the latest period. Winning 3-0 home with Hull isn’t a big deal, but 3-0 with Aston Villa isn’t something that many teams will achieve in the next years.
Arsenal was absolutely fantastic, with Cesc Fabregas in the spotlight : the spanisgh midfielder opened the scoretable with a great free kick, than, in the last 10 minutes, he scored again after a perfect counter-attack, assisted by Theo Walcott. Abou Diaby scored the last goal, few moments before the final whistle was blown. Aston Villa came on the Emirates wanting to gain a draw, it was obvious for everyone this. Today, Arsenal takes on a team that wants to win, of course, a draw wouldn’t help them too much. the problem is that Portsmouth is no way good enough to face such a big and strong team like Arsenal, and, thinking that the Gunners have a great morale, they will come to pompey’s arena to win.
Arsenal is clearly the team of the moment in England, and a victory before the new years’s eve would perfectly matcn their latest results and evolutions.

Dupa multa vreme, aseara am urmarit un film la dvd player. Era unul dintre acele filme, pe care le-am cumparat la reduceri dintr-un mare magazin.
Regizorul, Alan Parker, cunoscut mai ales pentru filmul “The Wall” a reusit folosindu-se de umor si satira sa puna un mod de viata aparent sanatos, in situatii ridicole. Tema filmului este alimentatia organica, care presupune renuntarea definitiva la carne, dar si folosirea clismei ca metoda terapeutica frescventa.
Doctorul Kellog, inventator al fulgilor de porumb si al untului de arahide duce aceste metode in ridicol, uneori soldandu-se chiar cu pierderi de vieti omenesti prin electrocutare. Metodele doctorului, pe alocuri venite de undeva din Antichitate, sau din Evul Mediu primesc doua palme decisive in acest film: incendierea sanatoriului de catre unul dintre cei 40 de copii adoptati ai doctorului, dar si moartea acestuia in incercarea de a dovedi ca trupul sau este mai tanar decat varsta sa din buletin printr-un salt in apa.
Distributia acestui film cuprinde nume sonore precum: Bridget Fonda, Anthony Hopkins, Matthew Broderick.
O comedie gri, care merita vizionata.
Nota lui Dreampoet: 10

Aston Villa – Liverpool
Liverpool DNB @ 1.85 
Liverpool and Aston Villa are playing the last big match of 2009 in European soccer. Liverpool is desperate to regain teritorry, as the last months have been a living nightmare for them, after losing the title last year. Liverpool is far from the 1st place, from the 2nd, from the 3rd, and their only hopes are for the 4th place, currently occupied by Tottenham Hotspurs, victorious today in the match against West Ham united, 2-0. The fight for this 4th place will be between 4 teams : Aston Villa, tottenham, man City and liverpool. Each team has their own reason to hope they will achieve their goal : Aston Villa has a solid defense, and they also know each other very weel, including manager Martin O’Neil, who’s working here for 4 years. But, Villa, in my opinion is missing a real leader, after garath barry left the club for Man City. Tottenham Hotspurs has a very valuable squad, especially if we reffer to their forwards and strickers. I don’t like their defense and the fact that when they meet a strong side, they have serious problems (the best examples are the matches with Man Utd 1-3, Chelsea 0-3, and Arsenal 0-3). Man City has the best squad, probably, from the 4 teams involved in the fight, and now, since Roberto Mancini is their coach, I think they are more balanced and will defend much better. Liverpool might have the smallest number of points, but certainly they have one of the biggest chance, because their squad is good, they only need to start making longer streaks and then they will be fine.
Villa – Liverpool today. Villa has shown their limits in the match against the gunners, Arsenal winning 3-0. Villa wasn’t able to do mostly anything, Arsenal diminating the whole match, maybe except for the first 20 minutes, when the match was more balanced. Liverpool won their previous match, 2-0, against Wolves, and come to Villa Park with 1 thought in their mind : the 3 points, and ending the year as close as possible to th 4th place.

In 2005, dupa examenul de bacalaureat, am mers la Pitesti impreuna cu acelasi Victor la un prieten de-al lui de pe mIRC. Cred ca ii ziceam Osama sau ceva de genul asta, insa sigur imi amintesc de cei 6-8 km strabatuti atunci printr-o padure de langa Pitesti, de timpul noros, dar si de ziua cu soare. Nu pot uita nici mancarea bunicii gazdei noastre, si nici cainele care nu ne lasa sa dormim. Am jucat sah, am baut bere la 2 litri si ne-am distrat. Despre Pitesti? Pot spune ca e plin de tasnitori si de farmacii (dar unde nu sunt farmacii?). Poza e facuta tot de aparatul meu, insa provine din acelasi vechi calculator al lui Victor.
Astazi melodia care insoteste amintirile, apartine lui Elvis Presley si se numeste Memories…

Versuri:
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine
Quiet thoughts come floating down
And settle softly to the ground
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories,
Sweet memories
Of holding hands and red bouquets
And twilights trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days with you
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine,
Memories, memories,
Of holding hands and red bouquets
And twilights trimmed in purple haze
And laughing eyes and simple ways
And quiet nights and gentle days with you
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine
Memories, memories, sweet memories, memories…

Continuu sa va prezint amintiri…Prima poza este realizata in anul 2004, cred ca in decembrie, sau in 2005 in lunile de iarna. Este tricoul meu din echipa scolii. Din 4 meciuri in campionatul pe sector, am castigat unul singur. Eu eram printre cei mai slabi jucatori, cred ca eram chiar ultima rezerva…Totusi, memorabil este meciul contra liceului “Traian Vuia”, cand la pauza eram condusi cu 2 la 0. Profesoara a spus: “Cine vrea sa joace? Cine e in stare sa dea ceva pe teren?”. Doua persoane au luat in serios acea intrebare, unul dintre ele fiind chiar eu. Daca in prima repriza nu am avut nicio ocazie, in a doua, Andrei alias Dreampoet de astazi a ratat cu seninatate 3 mari ocazii de gol 😀
Poza descoperita de acelasi Victor, realizata cu primul meu aparat digital, care avea 3 megapixeli si 4x zoom digital. Maine alta poveste, alta amintire…
PS: De astazi, fiecare amintire, va fi insotita de o piesa avand ca tema amintirile. Prima apartine trupei Talisman…

A fost un meci exceptional, cum nu am mai vazut de cateva luni. Daca ar fi sa premiem cea mai frumoasa echipa ce evolueaza in Europa, cu siguranta am alege Arsenal. Jocul in viteza, combinativ, folosind atat devierile, cat si flancurile sunt reteta pentru o echipa care poate invinge pe oricine, dar si poate fi invinsa de oricine. Jucatori precum: Diaby, Song, Denilson sau Eduardo nu spun mare lucru pentru suporterii de tip Real Madrid. Insa, dirijati de Wenger si Fabregas, acesti jucatori formeaza o mare echipa …
PS: a iesit pronosticul lui Mihaita, asa ca pariati cu incredere pe ponturile pe care le lanseaza in fiecare zi!

Tottenham Hotspurs – West Ham
over 2.75 @ 1.98 (betphoenix)
Things are getting so much interesting in Premiership, after the last round. Tottenham and Chelsea are the teams that aren’t happy after the results : they’ve both lost 2 important points, after ending 0-0 with Birmingham (Chelsea), and 0-0 with Fulham (Tottenham). As a result, Chelsea is now only 2 points ahead of Man Utd, and has other reasons to worry, as Arsenal plays better and better and looks like a serious challenger for the Blues to win the title.
Tottenham is 5th, and might lose this place as Man City is only 2 points behind, but has one match less, so in case of a victory in that match, City would go 1 point in front of Spurs. Today, Tottenham plays a local derby against a hungry for points team, Wes Ham United. Tottenham, 5th as I’ve said, has the 4th attack in the league, scoring 40 goals so far. Their defense isn’t the best one, as they’ve allowed 22 goals, more than 1 per match. West Ham has a good attack, also, thr 7th, scoring 28 goals, but their problem is clearly their defense, that allowed 35 goals, almost 2 goals per match. Tottenham average 3.26 goals/match, while their opponents average 3.31 goals/match. So, today, it’s a match between two teams that are likely to produce spectacular matches. The best example is Tottenham Hotspurs, winner a few rounds ago over Wigan Athletic with an outstanding 9-1 score.
I think that Tottenham wins today, but I’m sure that, just like in the match with Chelsea, West Ham will be strong enough to fight heavily and they have many chances to score.

Pentru o parte dintre cititorii mei, acesta va fi un moment de amuzament…anul de gratie 2006…celebra formatie IceWell, formata din Kopak si Dreampoet, chitara si voce, dupa principiul s-au nascut speranta, au murit mari talente. Aceasta e valabila cel putin in cazul meu.
Eram un tanar student, boboc de felul meu, cu dorinta de afirmare…pentru cei care vor audia pentru prima data aceasta capodopera a genului heavy-metal, va rog sa stati asezati inainte de a da play…nerecomandata cardiacilor 😀

Posted in Sport Betting Tips, tagged Arsenal, Aston Villa, Boxing Day, Emirates, Premiership on December 27, 2009| 1 Comment »
Two tough matches today in Premier League, the first one is between two of the best teams, Arsenal and Aston Villa, from the 3rd and 4th places. Last year, Aston Villa played against Arsenal on Villa Park on Boxing Day. now they play they day after, and the situation is somehow similar to the one from the last season, only that then, Villa was 4th, and Arsenal 5th.
Aston Villa’s objetctive, qualifying in Uefa Champions League, is clearly the only thing that matters for them this season. Villa has sacrificed the Europa League, being eliminated in the play-off by Rapid Wien, and focused hard on the internal competition. Villa comes to Emirates after 4 consecutive victories : 3-0 with Hull, 1-0 @ Man Utd, 2-0 @ Sunderland and 1-0 with Stoke. Impressive form for the Birmingham team, a real nightmare for top teams this year, as they won 3-1 on Anfield, 2-1 home with Chelsea, and, as mentioned before, 1-0 away, with Manchester united.
Arsenal is 3rd due to their matches against small and medium teams, as they’ve lost to Chelsea, Manchester united or Manchester City. However, Arsenal is not a sure victim in such matches, as they’ve won, for instance against liverpool, away, 2-1, and 3-0, with Tottenham at home. Aston Villa is a big name, but let’s not forget a very important part of the equation ; Arsenal has the big advantage of the home court in this match. Arsenal, at home,has an impressive line, of 7 victories, and 1 defeat (no draws), while Villa didn’t play fantastic on road : 4 victories, 3 draws and 2 defeats. I really think this advantage will be decesive for the Gunners and they will win.
