Diary of Gabriel Obertan (aged 23 and 3/5ths)

Monday 24th September 2012
Late getting to the training ground today. I was stuck on the inside lane of the dual carriageway. Could have just sped up and passed traffic but I didn’t feel safe doing so.

Went to an all you can eat buffet afterwards. Benny nipped in and out the queue picking up everything he wanted but I played it safe and stayed in the queue. Missed out on the spring rolls. Again.

Went to training this morning. I saw Jonas heading towards the last exercise bike. I could have beaten him to it but let him have it.

Boss told me he wants me to be more assertive and get past other players. I told him I’d try. I’ll get the exercise bike!

Went to Nando’s afterwards. I decided to be more assertive and told them what I wanted straight away. The traffic warden told me I couldn’t park my car on double yellows outside the restaurant.

Boss told me that he was going to play me today. I told him I was going to be assertive just like he asked.

At Old Trafford and in the changing room, Carver told me to get past players with my pace. I ran out onto the pitch first.

Getting the hand of this assertiveness now.

Pardew told me to kick and run; so I ran up to Simpson, kicked him and ran away. He's been injured since.

Speaking of tasty beverages OT which I know is a hobby we both enjoy, have you penciled in any away games or indeed home games this season?

Nothing yet this season. I'm giving up smoking this coming Monday so I'm going to avoid social occasions where drink will invariably be involved until after Xmas.

After that I'll be up for a London based game like Spurs in Feb.

Spurs in Feb sounds good.

That said I'm not sure if I'll make it as I now feel a sense of duty towards the Chancellor's dwindling coffers and feel honour bound to increase my intake of fags and ale to cover the huge dent your pending abstinence is going to make.
