Haha.. Wifey always say that i am obsessed with football esp. Liverpool Football club. Actually, i think that i am quite level-headed liao. I am not the type that will buy the Home Jersey, Away Jersey, Training Kit etc etc but i disgress.

I realised that in the recent months, i have been looking around to play in more competitive football matches. I guess i am not contended with just pinging the ball around at ARJAS every sat. Manfred calls me his “SHIFU” and Darryl is starting to do the same. They feel that i play well as holding midfielder and can play well in competitive matches.

So far, i have played 4 competitive matches and i realised that my fitness level is not as good and my level is not as good as when i play in ARJAS. I wonder if it is the team’s style which allow me to play to that level because when i play in competitive matches, i don’t play as well and i don’t understand why.

I am thinking that it is down to fitness level and level of comfort. Playing in ARJAS, it is a non-stress environment and it is relaxing so no problems. But once i am in competitive mode, i try to play with a different mentality and it drains me physically very quickly.

Maybe i should just relax more and keep my play simple. Play to my strengths and know my weaknesses. Guess i need to arrange another friendly match to put my “theories” into practice..
