Tomori Thundered, Tammy Tamed the Ferocious Wolves while Mount Murdered any Hope for a Point in Molineux


From the Academy to the world, Chelsea's ban this season already looking like a blessing as those unappreciated stones at home were proving to be gems of immeasurable worth. Chelsea's goals this season came from all the young players. Buoyed by, do not forget, the Lampard Effect.

Tomori first thundered a screaming shot into the net to scare the stubborn Wolves. 

Then like a Thanos, Tammy Abraham completed his "Tammy-trick" ( his is not the general hat trick with a consolation gift for the opponents )  in a spate of 21 minutes. The amazing ease at which he scored from both his legs and head was stupendous. Fans loved it. And some gods whisper " Tammy, remove that mask. We know it's Drogba".

Even Tammy got an own goal for the bewildered Wolves. And another quick addition by the Wolves to make 2-4. Hope arisen at Molineux?

Ever steadfast and hardworking, general-in-the-making Mason Mount muttered "no!" and murdered the seeming hope in Molineux  with a sexy slimy finish. Fans had gone from hating Abraham to calling him their first father, their first saviour...the reason of their being.

What surprise would the season hold again?

When it unfolds, we follow.

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...

Of Nigerian HR and the Teeming Youths

There’s a thin line of difference between being boisterous and confident. Also, the determination of what is rude is often how the expression is perceived. HR Taiwo interviewed this brilliant dude who wanted to impress her with a simple compliment of “you smell nice”. HR Taiwo retorted “you are rude!” Twitter went agog with varying ideas. While some concluded that Nigerian HR acted like a mini-god, some decried the audacity of the guy. What was HR expecting? A respectful "ma" to follow? Or she regarded the compliment as audacious flirting? What was the interviewee trying to achieve also? A memorable closure to the interview? Or a simple display of his confidence? I understand she was too harsh with the retort but people can be that difficult. As an interviewee, do not allow yourself to be goaded into a position where such unruly interviewer will have a chance to hack you down. Flamboyant confidence can maim your chance with sadists on the seat "You smell nice"...

GRIEF-PLOITATION AND MEDIA TRAFFIC

Traffic, like we are conversant with, is the amount of people who pass through a certain place at a certain moment in a certain way. The likes of facebook posts, the views on YouTube uploads  and blog posts, the retweets and favourites on tweets, the clicks on your links and the comments on all these are regarded as social  traffics. The viability of these platforms depends on the traffics pulled. Thus, getting any amount of traffic becomes an obsession and a compulsive disorder to social media users. Since grief arrests human attention than any other emotion it has frequently been exploited and commercialized to serve the wants of traffic.  The stages of grief are said to be five (Elizabeth Kubler Ross and David Kessler). The stage of denial when the bearer denies the reality and wishes away the calamitous happening: the stage of 'no' it can never happen. The stage of anger induced by the dawning of the harsh reality: where bearers questioned even their gods. Ba...
