As soon as we get started, we have to take a back seat to
international football shite…
Week 3 of FFL gave us plenty, not least City, United and
Chelsea all maintaining their 100% records. Chelsea easily dispatched a poor Burnley
team with a routine 3-0 win, giving managers with Chelsea defenders points in
the bag – not least Sid with his Ivanovic – Courtois axis giving him 6 points.
Man City look to have already embedded the Pep philosophy
and are playing football that is aesthetically pleasing, much to the delight of
the Guardiola fanboys who can talk about ‘third man runs’, ‘between the lines’
and ‘passing in triangles’ until they multi-ejaculate in their pants. By the
way I fully expect to lose Aguero for three games but that’s cool as it’s the
Manc derby next!
United left it late but already it is clear that Mourinho
has built another team with power, physical presence and mental fortitude – how
long will that last???
Elsewhere, the ‘Wenger-In’ fraternity were happy.
Liverpool were rather Spursy in their draw with Tottenham as
profligate finishing meant they didn’t get what their endeavours deserved (is
that the definition of Spursy????)
As for FFL, at this early stage, I’m still at the top thanks
to 11 points but TC cuts that lead to only three points and top scores this
week to take the Raheem ‘I’m back bitches’ Sterling award with 19 big points.
The Joe ‘what the fuck happened’ Hart award goes to Don with
a paltry 1 and sees him prop up the table.
First to seventh place is separated by 15 points. A five point
gap beyond that to Nick PC with Harry 11 points clear of bottom.
