Stayhome weekends

Dec 18, 2005: Arsenal (H) vs Chelsea
Give the arrogant Mourinho the humble pie, Henry! I hate to admit this, Frank Lampard is cute. (ducks under the bed)

Dec 26, 2005: Liverpool (H) vs Newcastle
This is the do or break trial for Michael Owen - to return to his childhood club as an opponent (after a lacklustre season at Real Madrid to boot). At least with Owen on board, the magpies won't have to worry losing their way in Anfield, that's provided Owen don't stumble to the Home Team dressing room instead. Fingers crossed the Kopites won't gear up a 90-minute 'boo owen' chant. Owen is a nice boy, after all.

Jan 3, 2006: Arsenal (H) vs Man Utd
Honestly, I don't get much kick from watching Man Utd nowadays. They haven't seem to find their winning strategy. Maybe it's because I don't like the foul-tempered Rooney or I find their struggling formation laughable. In any case, this fixture is still worth my attention. Because the aim of both teams is not to outbeat or out-talk each other but to charge at Chelsea. Very soon, Mourinho's face will be pasted everywhere from diapers to bowls and mugs. Yes, Mourinho would become a brand except he's not too particular about where his name is found. Guffaws
