EPLwatch Week 18th


#ARSNEW
It was Oezil's stunner that returned gooners to winning ways. Newcastle couldn't redeem a point. 
Takehome: At trouble times, don't forget those rueful players once had individual brilliance that may shine anytime. We harness that.


#CHESOU
Marcos Alonso's 25 yard freekick was a generational marvel. It was a deftly arched freekick curled into the lowest angle of the post. A goalie, to save that, may end up with dislocation. Kante was also brilliant with some fundamental tackles.
TakeHome: Its a real team where a defender fires to victory when the attackers are having their fit of misfiring.


#MCITOT #cityvsspurs
Forth came the expected match of the weekend. Spurs couldn't deliver the dirty deed as the first half tough encounter churned out a barrage of goals in the concluding half. Guardiola is here doing it without a Messi but with erstwhile ill-used Sterling and incredible Sane doing the queer dribbles. It was a massive 4-1 victory and detractors were silenced at least for this weekend.
#Takehome: The secret of success is a little of every possible things, money to recruit resources, good managerial head to get the right resources, motivating talks to optimize performances, and prayers for a bit of luck when needed. 


#WBAMUN
Mourinho's guys survived a fright as their opponent fought back. As usual knight de Gea ensured the three points were delivered. Lukaku on scoresheet and chivalrous Lingard capped it. 
#TakeHome: Attack is always a best form of defence, if and only if, you are reasonable with it. 


#BORLIV
Think Liverpool. Think a swarm of bees. Think a pack of hyenas. It was a cease-less,  scintillating attack on display! It was a 0-4 victory. Is Sallah better than Hazard? The season will reveal.

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...

Lampard Outclassed the Master: Chelsea dealt Spurs two goals to Nil

Chelsea took the bulling Spurs by the horns: no cautiousness but direct attack. Mourinho was defeated. Chelsea guys didnt come with a respect for the master but they were all brimming to establish dominance which they did. Rudiger was a no-nonsense man, manning the defense. Zouma still un-fooballer-like but always decent.Tomori, your model footballer, tidy through the game. Kovacic was silent but stringing passes. Kante was a beast that made me imagined a combo of him with a De Bruyne in a midfield will be almost unbeatable. While Abraham and Mount were decent, William was the Marshall that Spurs couldnt handle. His every touch weakened the Spurs defense. He got the first goal and converted the other.  The game was all blue and Spurs were all kung-fu fighting. Son got a red card. The goalie a yellow.  Welcome back to Premier League, Mourinho. --toonday

DECLUTTERING AND DEATH CLEANING:THE LIVING AND THE KINDNESS IN OUR DYING

Living is a quadratic equation with a pre-determined answer (death) yet we keep trying to solve the equation. Year 2017 gave a fair share of answers to many lives. From international, national, to local personalities, lives were lost. To us, at first it appeared a distant reality until someone close to us succumbed to that harsh reality. To the young, it's a distant rumor. To the old, constant topic heavily brooded. If living is an act of dying, how can we then be gracious in dying? I came across this term: death cleaning and alas it's the much needed answer. How we can shroud in our living (dying) the preparatory kindness that can live after us and make neighbors happy?  Every breathing being will one day taste death.  No amount of science, or achievement, or bitterness or super-humanness can change that. If so, won't we live in all preparation for the constant exit? Death cleaning is a Swedish term that describes a conscious and deliberate preparation for death...
