cerealjoe: (janek - pretty)

Let's talk football. I've been out of the loop with football even more than I have been with cycling. I was rather surprised to learn that both Morientes and Heinze now play for Marseille and hey, I only learnt a day after the fact that Marseille is won the French league. I'm a bad, bad, bad person.

In any case, the other day I also learnt that the World Cup is only a month away! For most of it I'll be doing other things such as hanging out in Korea but hey, since their results in 2002, maybe it'll be a huge thing there. Right, this whole thing reminded me that I'm usually for France, Ukraine and Czech Republic. I'm shallow I'm mainly for Czech Republic because the team is pretty and that reminded me of the CR "dream team" with all the pretties, back in the day when Pixie still played with them...

An... the good old days.


I haven't heard much about about Milan Baros or Ujfi or Janek in quite some time... and I've only kind of followed Jaro's actions here and there (still playing for Bordeaux). I remember that the trio there got into trouble last year but I really had to google what the hell they're up to now.

Well, Milan is in Turkey. Plays with Harry Kewell on a team I've never heard of. Then again, I don't know any Turkish teams. Ujfi is in Spain. Hum... right. I haven't heard about that move but I bet the team colours suit him less than the Fiorentina ones! Janek is still playing for Milan, he's thinking of quitting the NT just along with Ujfi.

Who else was part of the team back in the day? Pixie is still retired. Rosicky is still the most adorable tiny little player on the field kind of still plays for Arsenal. The most surprising is Koller. After Monaco, he played somewhere in Russia and now he's in AS Cannes. AS Cannes. It's in in Championnat National, I don't even know what that is. Is it 3rd league or something? In any case, he must love the south of France (and I don't blame him)...

Right. I feel so old in a way, I can't follow all the changes going on. I have teams in my head that correspond to a certain era and that's how it should always be. Like AS Monaco should always be the "dream team" that went to the CL final! (that's why seeing Morientes and Heinze in Marseille is still a bit weird for me)

There was really no point to this post beyond saying that I'm weird and sometimes I wonder late at night what the hell happened to Milan Baros.
