Teemu Nearly Tamed Chelsea but Wild Tammy Terminated Norwich's Hope

It was a punch for punch match between the confident underdog and winning-seeking Chelsea. It was no hold back encounter and strikers of both teams lived up to the expectations.

So early in the game, Tammy Abraham converted the first goal with a venom of a threatened snake: it's a territorial war between chelsea's strikers now. Crafty Pukki lived up to his past veteran exploits. Being given extra attention, he set up Cantwell for a tap in equaliser.

In the same first half, young Mount showed some stuff he inherited from his mentor Lampard. He cut in and flashed the second goal into the net. Chelsea's fans were hysterical; they haven't so seen goals flowing much this season.

But mighty Pukki won't have any of it. He sublimely converted a goal past Chelsea goalie. Teemu couldn't stop poaching.

Lampard must have thought the world was crashing as stalemate could mean pundits slying him for the week again.

But Abraham, like the classic father of faith, used his long leg ,like the stick of faith, to curl a shot past two defenders into Norwich's net.

And so Lampard got his first win.

Massive!

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...
