Complacency In Excess, X-S

X-S lived up to their billing as a team that falls to the occassion, as they lost a comfortable 3-1 lead to draw 3-3 with Sheraton Hotel Team. Yarsene Wenger was seen fuming mad, as the players just refused to communicate and decided to run the show themselves. Shrieks of "possession lah!" from Rafarrell Benitez also fell on deaf ears as the players continued to play passes that even a horse cannot chase. Jose Booninho observed that the penalty conceded from Farrellgher's handball was a result of a lack of communication between players. Derek O'Leary is too busy organising matches for next weekend to comment. His Asst Manager Nani was too busy gossipping with the WAGs.

However, nobody can take away a great performance culminating in a brace for Yong Tevez. His exquisite chip over the defender with his right foot before slotting coolly into the corner with his left was oozing class and confidence. So was his lob over the goalkeeper. Fabreyas tapped in the third from a goalmouth scramble.

Man-of-the-Match goes to Koji NaTaka who broke up play in the middle and surged forward at every opportunity, which made the referee reminisce of the times Nazri Nasir was the heartbeat of the Singapore National Team.

The Board of Directors are not going to take anymore shit performance from the players and there must be a marked improvement in the next match. We hope to have our players back from injury in time for next week's Solid Saturday and Super Sunday matches, as X-S will be playing on both days to train up for the upcoming league.
