Quick update; I’ve had a shit day 11 June, 2009

A number of things have gone wrong for me today including most recently my MacBook charger deciding it wasn’t going to charge my laptop. Next to the little battery icon it just says ‘(Not Charging)’. Why?! Why are you not charging? It knows it’s plugged in because it’s come up with this message so what the fuck is your problem?
It seems the world is against me today, nothing truly bad has happened just a sequence of frustrating events have put me in a bad mood. I sat down to write the blog a little while ago and now this, the battery’s got a little bit of life left so I’ll bring you up to date.
I guess the top story today has nothing to do with Arsenal, it’s Cuntiano Ronaldo’s £80m move to Real Madrid. He’s not gone yet but the fee has been agreed etc. Without thinking about the footballing side of things just yet, that is a ridiculous amount of money for a football player. Now Man United have all that cash to buy whoever they please. They could easily get three top players with that cash and will no doubt be a strong force next season.
Madrid broke the transfer record earlier this week after agreeing a fee for ‘Kaka to move from AC Milan, now today they’ve smashed it again. I must admit I will be pleased to see the back of Ronaldo; but I do worry what United will do with all that money.
We had a few players in International action this week. I watched Theo play 90 minutes for England last night in their 6-0 win over Andorra, he was energetic and desperate to make an impression. He ran after a lot of last causes and troubled the very weak Andorran defense. I was hoping he might get a goal and he almost did about two minutes in but it wasn’t to be. He had a decent game but it was really a warm up for the U21s tournament he’ll be involved in this summer.
Cesc Fabregas had to be taken off at half time in Spain’s win over Azerbaijan with a head injury. It came after a clash in the penalty area and although it has been confirmed on Arsenal.com there’s still no time frame on the injury. I’m not worried it’ll be enough to put him out of our preseason but I am kind of hoping Spain leave him out of the Confederations Cup. It’s a long shot but it’d be good for us. Cesc has also confirmed his intentions to stay with us this summer.
Andrey Arshavin and Robin van Persie we also involved in international action, the Russian getting an assist in his game.
Right well I’m going to leave you now. I need to chill out and get a beer before I do something stupid like chuck my laptop across the room. If any Mac-heads know what my ‘(Not Charging)’ message is about, let us know please.
Cheers.
