In the back of my head, there's that niggling feeling, accompanied by a voice hammering way "I told you so" to me constantly. That is not made any easier by the number of Chelsea shirts, and all sorts of other apparel from the Blues I've seen since Sunday afternoon. In the end, the better team won granted, but second place never tasted this bitter before. Partially, it's because of the team's own doing. My dear manager, as much as I love the man, didn't do enough on his side. The players (some more than others) did all that was asked of them, and then some. That proved to be in vain. The Great White Hope of Manchester & England did all he could, but his supporting cast let hime down a lot of the time.
This season has been filled with amazing highs(derby victories), and major lows (Bayern and Chelsea), but overall, it's been an excellent season, and a lot has been learned. Many must be sure that the Red Devils will most definitely come back stronger next season. To think, Liverpool were touted to kick on from their previous campaign, and we were the ones who weer gonna struggle more, given summer transfer activities, and their impacts on each team. Our dear neighbours from Anfield, are nowhere to be even seen in the elite now. Having said that, the next 2 finals (UEFA Champs, FA Cup), the World Cup, as well as the 2010/11 seasons should be very interesting. Till August......here's to 2010, Bafana, and good ol UNITED!!!!!!!!
