EPL Kicks Off Again!

I am so much more refreshed today. A good time for an entry.

Finally, the new EPL (The English Premier League, for whoever that lives in outer space) season has kicked off. My heartiest congratulations to all Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea fans. Your team has gotten off to a winning start.

I feel sorry for Joseph Yobo. He literally handed the match to Manchester United on a silver platter, with the kind of blunder that he made as early as the first minute of the restart. That must be one of the easiest goals Wayne Rooney will ever score. However on an another note, Kudos to Ruud Van Nistelrooy. What an excellent poacher’s goal that was.

I am totally impressed with Newcastle United. Despite the early sending off of Jermaine Jenas, which i felt was a very very harsh refereeing decision, they put up such a spirited and determined performance. This particular Newcastle performance truly epitomises great fighting spirit. To say the truth, it was a pretty even game when it was 11 vs 11. Newcastle United would have given Arsenal a tougher ride but unfortunately, the sending off resulted in Newcastle adopting a different approach to the game. No questions why. But deep down, we all know that Arsenal is going to score eventually and they did. A good start to the season and all the best to Arsenal for the upcoming game at Stamford Bridge.

There’s nothing much to say about Dynamo Chelski, isn’t it?

Liverpool got off to a slightly disappointing 0-0 draw at the Riverside Stadium. Though, I feel that there are a number of positives that Liverpool can draw from the game. The defence and the midfield were playing outstandingly. Both Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and Yakubu were kept very quiet. The midfield orchestrated the attack well enough and the passing and distribution were commendable. However, I thought Rafael Benitez greeted the game a bit too cautiously and conservatively, by opting to play a 4-5-1. But i guess he had his reasons. Boro are a tricky team to play against at the Riverside. All credit to Gerrard. For all his efforts and industry, he really should have scored at least one, and give Liverpool a winning start. But it was not meant to be.

Things didn’t turn up very well for me at work today. I am JUST exceedingly disgusted with the way some people work. JUST because they think they are of a higher rank, they can boss their unlucky subordinates around in ways that are JUST totally uncomprehensible.To be totally frank, i JUST feel that some of the things under his charge are JUST in a total mess right now. No worries,i will still continue to work hard, and that little hope of being able to see a brighter tomorrow will keep me going, and last me for a very long time to come.
