미샤 안 나오는 동안은 첼시 경기 볼 생각도 안 했던 탓에
EPL 경기 인터넷 생중계로 처음부터 본 게 이번 시즌 들어 처음이다 --;
미샤는 26분에 부상당한 램퍼드 교체로 들어갔다.
이로써 정규 리그 경기에 복귀.
난타전 끝에 89분에 페널티로 동점골을 내줘 4:4로 비기고 말았다.
그럭저럭 첼시 홈 경기 무패 기록은 이어가는구나.
3명이 퇴장당하고 미샤도 옐로 카드를 받는 등
그다지 보기에 좋은 경기는 아니었다만,
그리고 미샤가 페널티 얻어낸 게 다이빙이었다느니
미샤가 성공시킨 프리킥도 줘선 안 되는 거였다느니 하는 소리가 있더라만,
지금 이 순간은 그런 거 일단 다 무시하고
다만, 미샤가 드디어 복귀했고, 45분 이상 뛰었고, 부상당하지 않고 경기를 마쳤다는 걸 감사하고 싶을 뿐이다.

베르더 브레멘은 전반기 마지막 홈 경기에는
크리스마스 트리 모양의 엠블럼을 달고 나온다.
이걸 본떠서, 원래 갖고 있던 녹색 스웨터를 리폼해보았다.
(십자수로 리폼하는데 재미들렸음)
십자수 도안. 녹색 원단에 별과 W만 십자수로 하고, 트리 모양 가장자리는 박음질로 하면서 스웨터에 붙였다.

Bundesliga Mid-Season Review
As German football goes into winter hibernation mode, Goal.com takes a look at the Bundesliga’s top-of-the-table picture.
They said it would all be over by Christmas. Actually, I did too. But this has been a great Hinrunde (first round of league fixtures) for the Bundesliga fan.
On the one hand we’ve had the joy of watching world-class individuals like Franck Ribéry and Luca Toni ply their trade in Germany. On the other hand we haven’t seen Bayern run away with the title.
The Bundesliga is often scoffed at by fans of other leagues for being a one-team competition. It’s a misguided notion.
Not only did the Rekordmeister tumble to a lowly fourth placed finish last season, but they head into this year’s winter break top only on goal difference. Italy, Spain, England, France, Portugal – none of their title races are quite so close at the moment.
Bayern's Storming Start
It hadn’t always looked this way, mind. Wowed by the novelty of a German side spending whopping amounts that fans of Europe’s big three leagues are well accustomed to, Bundesliga sides appeared star-struck as they lined up against Bayern’s mega-stars.
Ottmar Hitzfeld’s side took advantage in style – their first three games saw three wins, ten goals scored and none against. Ribéry deservedly took August’s player-of-the-month gong, his display in the 4-0 away win at Bremen truly something to savour.
The Decline (Of Sorts) Of Bayern Munich
As the Münchner then stretched their lead to six points, Uli Hoeneß’ prophecy (“the opposition will need binoculars to see us we’ll be so far in front”) looked to be fulfilling itself. It may do still, but for now the Bavarian giants have been pegged back.
“We’re Autumn champions,” grinned Hoeneß and Hitzfeld, their faces cracking under the pressure of such false joy following a limp 0-0 draw at Hertha Berlin on Saturday. Bayern achieved their aim of being top at Christmas, but they have stumbled – rather than strolled – to the finish line.
Rifts between the German players and the foreigners; stars such as Sagnol and Podolski blasting Hitzfeld for benching them; captain Oliver Kahn ducking out of the club’s Christmas party; dissent between the board and certain fan groups; high profile media spats between Hitzfeld, Hoeneß and chairman Karl-Heinz Rummennigge - the list goes on.
Top spot cannot hide the fact that all is not well at the Allianz Arena. €70m is a lot of money to spend for draws at home to Frankfurt, Duisburg or (in the Uefa Cup) Bolton Wanderers. Hitzfeld, fed up with the constant pressure and aura of dissatisfaction, could be yodelling his way off to Switzerland soon.
But let’s clarify the situation – Bayern haven’t been that bad. First place on goal difference is hardly a disaster. The Rekordmeister have lost just once, 3-1 at Stuttgart. This time last year, they’d lost four league games. What is more, the Münchner have undoubtedly had the toughest fixture schedule of any of the big sides: of the usual tricky away fixtures, Bayern only have a trip to Schalke left to play.
If we’re looking for an explanation for such a close Hinrunde, let’s focus on the positives: Hamburg, Leverkusen and particularly Werder Bremen have been superb.
Hanseatic Heroes
If leagues were played from January to December, Huub Stevens’ Hamburg would have won the 2007 Bundesliga at a canter. In less than twelve months the Dutchman has transformed the Hanseaten from rock-bottom relegation candidates to serious championship challengers.
Rafael Van der Vaart is back to his best, but HSV have proven their ability to win even without the dynamic Dutch international. Ivica Olic has been transformed from mis-hit to Mister Hat-Trick, holding midfielder David Jarolim is consistently one of the best players in the league, while Stevens appears to have established a real bond with his players.
Two disappointing draws at the end have left HSV four points off the pace, but they have demonstrated that they have the heads – as well as the talent – to succeed.
Renaissance In West Phalia
Bayer Leverkusen are also experiencing something of a renaissance this season. A crushing 5-2 defeat at Bremen on Saturday brought an abrupt end to an otherwise strong campaign, but Michael Skibbe’s men have generally looked tight at the back and useful in attack.
Kicker magazine rank young midfielder Simon Rolfes the number one performner in the Bundesliga this season (Jarolim, Diego, Ribéry and Schalke’s Marcelo Bordon round out the top five), testament to Leverkusen’s ability to get the best from lesser-known talents.
Young Swiss star Tranquillo Barnetta and veteran attacker Sergey Barbarez have also been superb. Sporting director Rudi Völler doesn’t expect his team to challenge for honours this season, but privately he must be hoping for a Champions League spot.
Wonderful Werder
If two of Germany’s Champions League representatives, Schalke and Stuttgart, have disappointed domestically, it is Werder Bremen who have really caught the eye. For several years now one thing has been clear in the Bundesliga: if you really want to be entertained, you should head to the Weserstadion.
The summer departure of Miroslav Klose led to fears of an impending Green-and-White goal drought. 42 goals in 17 games (Bayern have 31) suggests otherwise. Thomas Schaaf’s men live by their attacking football, even if it means they struggle defensively.
Werder put eight goals past Bielefeld, hit Karlsruhe and champions Stuttgart for four, and just when things looked to be going pear-shaped with a 4-3 defeat at Hannover they bounced last weekend, hammering in-form Leverkusen 5-2. This is not a side content to play for a draw or sit on a 1-0 lead.
Diego remains the fans' hero, contributing nine goals, but the true star is the team. That may be football’s favourite cheap throwaway line, but in Bremen’s case it holds true: Werder have been absolutely ravaged by injuries this term.
Schaaf has used a whopping 27 players in the league so far. Only three men have been passed fit for every game while inspirational leader Torsten Frings has barely featured. A slow start and embarrassing mauling at home to Bayern aside, it’s barely mattered.
Fringe players have stepped in and continued the free-flowing footballing philosophy; new heroes like Boubacar Sanogo or Daniel Jensen have been born; Ivan Klasnic returned from two kidney transplants to net a brace against Leverkusen. Given a fully-fit squad, the depth of options available to Thomas Schaaf is simply frightening.
Bremen lack the cash of their southern rivals, but they are an incredibly skilful and well-managed side. Hoeneß remains defiant, but Bremen will have made the Bayern manager more than a little nervous as we head into 2008. Bayern remain the favourites for the big prize, but they are also undeniably the side under the greatest pressure.

발락 "선수 생활 이대로 끝나는 줄 알았다"
첼시의 미하엘 발락은 최근의 부상 악몽으로 더이상 선수 생활을 하지 못 할 것으로 생각했다며 그동안의 마음 고생을 토로했다.
발락은 지난 4월 뉴캐슬 유나이티드와의 경기에서 발목 부상을 당한 이후 올시즌 단 한 차례의 경기도 뛰지 못 하고 있었다.
때문에 그는 UEFA 챔피언스 리그에 참가하는 팀 선수명단에 이름조차 올리지 못 하는 수모를 당해야 했으며 부상 치료를 위해 두 번이나 수술대에 오르는 등 힘든 시절을 겪었다.
드디어 부상에서 회복해 20일 열린 리버풀과의 칼링컵 8강전에서 후반 교체 출전하며 오랫만에 선을 보인 발락은 다시는 그라운드에서 뛰지 못 할 줄만 알았다며 그동안 힘들었던 시절을 회상했다.
독일의 주간지 '디 자이트'와의 인터뷰에서 "수천번을 질문했지만 어떠한 답도 얻지 못 했었다"고 말문을 연 발락은 "모든 선수들이 부상을 당하게 되면 불안해 하지만 나의 경우에는 하루 종일, 24시간동안 내 머리 속을 떠나지 않았다"며 "가끔은 이렇게도 생각했다. '이제 31살이 되었고 14년동안 프로 생활을 했으니 이제 끝낼 때도 되지 않았는가'하고 말이다"라며 은퇴까지 심각하게 고려했음을 밝혔다.
그는 이어 "처음에는 3-4주면 회복할 수 있을 것이라고 믿었지만 모든 것이 점점 복잡해지기만 했다. 두번째 수술을 끝낸 뒤에는 어느 의사도 나에게 언제쯤 다시 경기에서 뛸 수 있을지 말하기를 꺼려했다"며 그동안 정확한 복귀 날짜에 대해서도 확신하지 못 했음을 토로했다.
이제 부상에서 완벽히 회복한 발락은 "유로 2008이 열리는 6월까지 최고의 컨디션을 되찾기 위한 충분한 시간이 남아있다"며 "이번 부상으로 인해 2010 월드컵 출전에 대한 의욕이 생겼다"며 첼시뿐만 아니라 독일 대표팀을 위해서라도 앞으로 좋은 활약을 펼칠 것임을 다짐했다.
