Solskjaer Came with the Confidence of a Predator but Ridiculously Humbled as a Prey

Like fans like the coach, Ole's outright overconfidence reflected in his selection and the pattern of play. But Lampard looking for redemption from his persistent failure against Ole fielded his in-form striker. The game could have gone either way but Basket De Gea ensured the losing side was Man UTD. He conceded some goals which an amateur could have a rethink over. ( especially the second goal).

The crumbling of the glorious Red Devil started when Bailly left the pitch injured. McGuire couldn't hold up. He had the confidence but his delivery couldn't match his price tag. Giroud scored the first goal: a quick tap-in. De Gea could only caress the ball as it sauntered across the goal-line like a virgin that escaped the lure of her man. The second was a quick interception by Mount and he hit from some yards. De Gea must still be thinking of the Virgin cuz he saw the ball yet he dreamingly parried it into his own net. Like a man with no confidence in front of a maiden with so much ego. That was immediately after the resumption of the second half.

The third however was a deflection by overpriced McGuire into his own net. Man Utd got a penalty to register their own presence too. It ended. 3-1.

It was Lampard to the final of the Oldest trophy campaign in England. Arteta already waiting in the arena. Who will be the last standing Gladiator? 

Time is the diviner and definer of the future.

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...
