UNFORTUNATELY there’s no game to talk about this weekend as this is the Women’s Super League we’re talking about and we now haven’t got a fixture for three weeks.
Don’t tell me you’re shocked?
We didn’t even have training this weekend.
We got given a rare weekend off by management however, fortunately for you I can talk for England…
So what to do with my weekend off free from football?
Go and watch football.
My team, Man United of course, were only playing at Wembley and I was lucky enough to get my hands on a ticket.
The Community Shield final is seen as just another pre-season friendly but it was another chance for silverware and we all know United love a bit of that. Sorry Arsenal fans…
It was great to see a newly formed United team under the new boss, Jose Mourinho.
It was also an absolute pleasure watching Zlatan live, who has always been one of my favourite players.
Although for me he didn’t have one of his best games but like the big game player he is, he scores the winner and then gives it the big’un in the post-match interview.
You’ve got to love him.
His personality both on and off the pitch is brilliant and the way he talks about himself in the third person is something you can only admire.
I don’t think I could love him anymore if I tried.
I can’t wait to watch him week in and week out in the Premier League in a United shirt this season.
So the Premier League that starts this weekend!
It can’t come soon enough…
With the new recruits in the league this year it looks like it’s going to be as exciting off the pitch as it will be on it.
Mourinho, Pep, Conte, Klopp and the rest all in the mix battling it out for the title.
We all know how I love a prediction and if you’ve listened to me in the past you could have earned yourself some serious cash.
This season I’m going to put it out there and say I really think it’s our year.
What with now the signing of Paul Pogba, I think it shows real intent from Jose and I fully believe we have every chance this year.
It’s been a while…
Oh and you can thank me later!
