EPL Watch 12th week

#ARSTOT
The most anticipated London derby:
Weary of the 11th week loss against the smoky Man City, Gunners and fans were in pre-match 'sutana' praying fervently for victory and feverishly afeared of untoward results against a  London rival who earned their champion league position last season. Wenger fielded all his artilleries and Spur fell. Spur Sanchez could not stop super  Sanchez from scoring. Ramsey marauding as usual. Ozil's assist. Mustafi's got a goal. Cech saved the day. A fortunate 2-nil victory with a convincing performance.

#TakeHome: Last week failure shouldn't affect today's performance. Rather than making you jittery it should be a determination for redress. 


#LEIMCI
Humble Guardiola had played down the invincibility of the Citizen but they tore resilient Leicester apart. It was almost a punch for a punch until Guardiola's trademark 'tiki-taka' rended Leicester's defence apart. De Bruyne's rocket shot was astonishing. Gab Jesus always has a way of being a perfect poacher. Sane with his insane incision. 

#TakeHome: Hubris is the pride that heralds a downfall. At peak of any success one should never be too proud, with the cognizance that no condition is ever permanent. Guardiola is riding his humility till it lasts.

 
#MANNEW
MAN UTD has a pogba back and their onions back. It was a blistering defeat. Fast pace. Intelligent Martial dazzled and courageous Smalling is becoming a revelation. Pogback on scoreline.  Lukaku finally scored.

#TakeHome: there are many a time when an individual may not be properly appreciated until they are unavoidably absent. Then, the vacuum they leave will show the measure of their importance. How important is Pogba? Mourinho knows better.


#WBACHE
Conte is a tough man axing David Luiz last week against MAN UTD yet secured his victory. He's a principled man. This week, Hazard was like  a blizzard that couldn't be stopped. Morata is simply a football con man: subtly intelligent and evasively creative. Bakayoko was just too wasteful. 

#TakeHome: If a member of your team threatens the whole, kindly note not matter how seemingly important, he should never be prioritized over team harmony. Conte and Luiz saga. 


#LIVSOU
Liverpool attacked, like their custom, in hyena-like park. Sensational Sallah routed opponents' defence. Klopp's happy. Sallah's amazing goal can make Sallah every weekend and every weekend a Sallah.

Weekend of the Champs and Cramps

Champs do the winning and the cramps give us whining. Champs get the points and the cramps the pains. Liverpool started the weekend like a proper champ that they are. Sallah like the coming festival stood out in the game with two solid goals. The champ of the encounter, Bournemouth burned Chelsea with a lone goal. Is Lampard's ride changing fortune? No winning is permanent, obviously. Manchester United was saved by Greenwood. While one youngster was instrumental to his team's performance, another one ( Moise Kean) that entered as a sub was later subbed off because he looked knackered. Champs and Cramps. Be and the Wannabes! Talking of the Champs and Cramps, Gunners were gunned down. Decimated beyond reparation in the first half. De Bruyne ricocheting shot couldn't be stopped resulting into the first goal and Sterling stellar placement was also conceded, second goal. The third was still De Bruyne ruining the Gunners with a curvy shot that beat the defenders wi...

Brentford Beat Blundering Gunner Two Goal To Nil

  The start of EPL came with Arteta still unable to  fumble out of his not-too-convincing career in Arsenal. Brentford came roaring from relegation to beat Arsenal who dream of getting to top four this season. But like their pre-season, a miscarriage of dreams, they fell a goal behind to Brentford through Canos super strike. From that moment forward, Brentford became the Bully, created more chances and Arsenal passed sideways as if the goal post was at the corner flag. Anyways, White white-out on the field, the presence of 50 million bargain wasn't felt. Mari was too casual for a defender. Tierney will soon burn out. Chambers tried his chambers-efforts. Upfront Balogun was starved of direct passes. Pepe will never pepper any defender except when he is in luck. The dude cannot be consistent except he sees a man-manager. Smith is a ball-smith but combined with Xhaka sideways and momentary slip & sleep off, Smith Rowe just rowing to a fruitless breeze. Martinelli needs to man...

Liverpool Laundered Chelsea 2-0

  Lampard's League of Assassins became the victim and were turned into whiff when they met King Klopp's Coven of Wizards. Mane mane-handled them, scoring a brace. Klopp's magic wand turned Timo Werner to Timo Waster. Havertz became Harvard without a degree. Kante could not count any goal. Kepa also was no keeper. Chelsea became ChelShit: as all turned messy.  The game actually started as if Chelsea would be in control for a longer time. Werner squandered two good chances, though his movements were always threatening.  But the real story unveiled after 40+ minutes into the game. Mane got Christensen to foul him. Red card for CB.  The game became only Liverpool's. Magic Mane later got the first goal and also the second which was gifted by Kepa unkempt pass. Jorginho kept jogging but not creating. Zouma tried his best and Tomori as sub was not timorous but the scoreline wasnt palatable.  Lampard has a lot to fix. But he has another league o...
