<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BSCy2h0Wq0M" frameborder="0" width="480" height="360"></iframe></p>
<p>Awsm. The memorable moments where, we were eating Man Tao (empty buns) and.. the (oldies) song &#8220;Feelings&#8230;&#8221; came on, and I said the man-thao chinese joke! And only Yang Wei got it!! hahaha&#8230;. Oh, and my cake caught fire with the plastic thing burnt due to the candle overload thing&#8230; ended with laughters!</p>
<p>[ori post]<br />
Huge game this weekend, champions Manchester United up against their loud and noisy neighbours who currently TOP the league, Manchester City.</p>
<p>My formula (which has served me well) for predicting a winner has been simple: the dude who comes out and talks (pre-match) usually loses. So if it&#8217;s Wenger v Ferguson and Wenger makes a comment about his team being confident, usually its an easy United win!</p>
<p>So as I browse Soccernet, I see conflicting &#8220;signs&#8221;</p>
<div id="attachment_3082" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 285px"><a href="http://philipkhor.com/i-dream/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/nigel.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-3082 " title="Nigel de Jong, Man City" src="http://philipkhor.com/i-dream/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/nigel.jpg" alt="Nigel de Jong, Man City" width="275" height="155" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Nigel de Jong, Man City</p></div>
<p>On one hand, de Jong of City says: &#8220;We&#8217;re going there as No. 1 and the aim is to stay No. 1. We are on top of the league so going into that game we just have to be confident and play our game as well as we have been doing.&#8221;</p>
<p>Red flag for Pippo&#8217;s radar!!! hehehe&#8230;</p>
<p>But in a separate article, Nani of United says: &#8220;City have a fantastic team at the moment with fantastic players,&#8221; said the Portugal winger. &#8220;They are playing a lot of good stuff and it will be difficult to play against them.</p>
<p>&#8220;But we should not forget; we are United. When we play at home it is very hard to beat us. That is why we are so confident.&#8221;</p>
<div class="mceTemp" style="text-align: center;">
<dl id="attachment_3083" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 285px;">
<dt class="wp-caption-dt"><a href="http://philipkhor.com/i-dream/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/nani.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-3083 " title="My twin, Nani of Manchester United!" src="http://philipkhor.com/i-dream/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/nani.jpg" alt="My twin, Nani of Manchester United!" width="275" height="155" /></a></dt>
<dd class="wp-caption-dd">My twin, Nani of Manchester United!</dd>
</dl>
</div>
<p>I told my prediction to my colleague (who is now on 3 weeks annual core leave) my secret formula. So he concluded, &#8220;it will be a draw lah&#8221;! Hmm.. looking closer, de Jong looks the cockier one with the more arrogant comment; hence I&#8217;ll go for a Man United victory Sunday evening!</p>
<p>It will be an exciting evening as even our Prime Minister Najib invites his blogger / social media friends for a viewing party at his crib!</p>
<p>What say you?</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s something from 2010 &#8212; with Yang Wei!!!</p>
