SHADES OF CITY
One thing is for sure this season for the citizens, Guardiola
is here to dominate, break hearts and do same in swashbuckling fashion.8 games
on the trot and they are getting better with each passing minute. Only God
knows when teams would be able to get a hang on how to handle this emerging
ruthless juggernaut. They ran riot against Bournemouth with 4 goals albeit with Guardiola praising their football as the
best he has played against yet in England(Way to throw shades at Jose Mourinho*insert
smile*)
My eyes are on this Guardiola team by the way, very
interesting case study they are.
LEICESTER
CITY ARE A BIG TEAM NOW
After their heroics in the premier league last
season, they lost one of their best player to Chelsea but somehow kept most of
their best players out of the reach of prowling teams with cash power.
With more football to play this season, Ranieri did
well to acquire more players(7 to be specific).They obviously now have the team depth that hopefully would help them last
this season with countless matches to play.They scored 3 goals and their score
sheet did not have the usual suspects as Algerian striker,Islam Slimani scored
a brace on his premier league debut and
this is good stuff for the Premier League Champions.
NO
RONALDO NO PROBLEM
Real Madrid defeated EspanyoI with Ronaldo and
Gareth Bale not on the team sheet. Truthfully, I must give a ‘big ups’ to
Zenedine Zidane for trying to create a
system that can function without their star player(s) which I think is good and
it is very necessary considering the fact that their rivals have invested in depth
and the (un)fortunate reality that they have to wait till 2018 before they can
new sign players.
WHEN
IT RAINS, IT POURS
The thing about football is that when things are
falling apart, they fall apart.That is the current situation with the
Manchester United squad who appear disjointed, clueless and confused. With
three consecutive losses in their bag
this early into the season, there is cause to look inward for Mourinho and his
troops. That being said,Mounrinho has to do his homework and eventually find
his best eleven and know the formation that would bring the best out of the
potent ammunition that he definitely possesses. Their best days are ahead.
TITLE
CHALLENGERS YEAH?
Arsenal put four past Hull City and the win afforded
Wenger to display his team’s attacking prowess ,team depth and winning
mentality. I hope they put in the work and are more consistent this season.
ALBERT
‘ENRIQUE’ EINSTEIN
If Luis Enrique was not into football, he would have
excelled marvelously well as a scientist or an inventor because his knack to
experiment and try new things is very impressive. Barcelona made light work of
Leganes and MSN were their usual selves but the star of the show was Luis Enrique
who rotated the squad and even experimented with a three man backline. I am
loving this team and this unpredictability would come in handy for Barcelona when
it matters the most.
