kieron dyer and feng shui

i've always been a fan of kieron dyer...



he's fast, has incredible dribbling abilities (the only other englishman worth comparing to joe cole), has speed, packs a great shot, and did i mention that he's fast? i liked him so much that i almost wanted him to play for liverpool at one point of time...

but as with all things good...here's the bad: he's stupendously unlucky. swey to the max. read this report from soccernet:

"newcastle midfielder kieron dyer is facing another spell on the sidelines after luck deserted him once again. the 27-year-old, who has been told he remains in england manager steve mcclaren's plans, will miss the barclays premiership match against reading with a badly gashed thigh.

manager glenn roeder confirmed the injury, sustained in a collision with advertising hoardings during the win over portsmouth on november 26, could keep dyer out for several games.

that will come as a huge blow to the influential midfielder after his six-month lay-off with a hamstring problem and the freak eye injury which interrupted his comeback.

roeder said: 'kieron, unfortunately, is having a run of luck that you just cannot believe.

first of all, he had a freak accident on the training ground where he missed a couple of game because a pole rebounded into his eye and caused him a problem for a few weeks.

now, trying so hard to keep the ball in play - which he did to get a cross in - he slid out of play, hit one of the boards and has got a nasty cut on the side of his leg.

he has got to be doubtful for a few games. we are just monitoring that day by day."

please loh. i don't think that day to day monitoring will do him any good. what he needs is to stop sleeping in front of a reflective object (mirrors, tvs, etc), to avoid going to training on inauspicious days, and to invest heavily in a good feng shui shi fu (风水师父)...in fact, i could recommend more than a few colleagues of mine who are supposedly "experts" in this field. trust me. haha.

good thing that kieron's playing at a club that suits him though...where else can you find titus bramble, scott parker, damian duff AND michael owen sitting in the stands with you at every match? hahaha. good luck mr. dyer...

cheers. =)
