Heliza AF5 (5th week)

Just in case if any of you is still wondering, I didn't write about her performance last week because I just couldn't find anything good to talk about it. It was just terrible. But this week there's some obvious improvement. It wasn't a bad performance really but when you compare it to the other's performance, it looks somewhat awful. For the first time after a few weeks, I can hear the whole song without her mumbling any part of it. Still, there were a few moments when she could have done better, especially when she was moving around. She still kept that timidity in her although the song requires her to be a little bit more daring, but hey, of course you expect that from someone like her. She can't help but being herself, even in her performance. All in all, it was a pretty entertaining performance although vocally she could have done better. But what worries me is that other contestants have been improving and that's something she needs to be wary of. I think she's gone backwards since the first week and she really needs to do better next week, or else something "unexpected" might happen. *fingers-crossed*

Devils' Goals Galore!

The game against Roma was one of MU's best games in European competition ever and certainly the best in recent years. It was worth all the hassle waking up in the middle of the night (which I did). We scored 7 goals against a very good Italian team, who are well-known for their defensive qualities, as well as tough-tackling players. And remember that we did it without 2 of our most important players all season, Paul Scholes and Nemanja Vidic. As far as I'm concerned, almost every player was at their best. Smith was running all over the pitch. Carrick produced 2 great goals which made me wonder where his position is, defensive or attacking midfielder? Ronaldo was exhilarating to watch, as he has always been this season. Giggs again showed us how important he is to the team. Fletcher proved that he does have what it takes to be in that red shirt. In defense, Heinze was the most outstanding player, blocking almost every shots and intercepting every passes. Ferdinand handled the pressure well. Heck, even Evra scored a goal! How's about that? This game certainly brings the confidence back in the squad after 2 straight losses. But what is more important is that it proved to the fans that the current squad does have what it takes to be challenging for Europeans top competiton. United have been under performing in Europe for the past 3 or 4 seasons and to be in the semis after such a long time is a good feeling, for both the players and supporters. And we are even doing good in EPL and have the FA cup to play for. Although it's unlikely we're going to repeat the famous treble, but looking at the way we're playing at the moment, anything is possible. So, get ready all United fans! The glory days ARE back!

Heliza AF5 (3rd concert)

Poor Heliza... she was criticised heavily and I believe she deserved it although I'm not really sure what Hattan meant when he said Heliza sounds like CT. I dont think she sounds like CT, or did I miss something?
Okay...let's just forget about Hattan (he's CRAP anyway). I'd rather talk about Heliza. Maybe she's already given her best, but somehow her best is just not good enough for me (maybe I expect too much from her). Everyone was expecting her to give a great performance and I believe most people were disappointed with the outcome. She was struggling from the moment the song started right until the end. She was even out of breath during the rap-like Latin verse. Lack of practice, I assume. It seemed like she can't wait for the song to end. Heliza obviously didn't enjoy her own performance, and it can clearly be seen in her expressions and movements.
On the plus side, her performance was better than some other boys (like Dafi and Rizal) and she can take some comfort in that fact. But I hope she'll give a better performance in the coming weeks. Come on girl!
