I woke up at 5am and woke Wayne up, we had a meeting at 6am so we quickly got ready and met the team and boss at 6am sharp. The boss told us the teams for the next match. I wasn't on, this was our team against Liverpool:
Wayne
Schweinsteiger
Van Persie
De Gae
Matteo
Herrera
Blind
Ramos
Di Maria
Mata
Rojo

I was disappointed and didn't think I will ever play a match for Man U, the boss told me
I wasn't as good as all the other players, I got offended. He told me I will play some matches but not all of them, the match against Liverpool was tomorrow, I decided to go out in the field and practice while the rest went for breakfast. I practiced my shooting and curving the ball. None of the shots went in except for one. I don't know what's happening to me, I took a break and had lunch, the mates invited me for tea, but I decided to practice a bit more.

Wayne came to me in the locker rooms and told me he had started just like me, he said that just keep on practicing and you will get better day by day, but don't run yourself out. I took his advice and decided today I would go home and rest for tomorrow's match.
