EPL

Man, I notice how I cannot stand EPL matches anymore nowadays, BORING BORING BORING!!!! I remember last time when Wes, Danl, James and I will call one another to watch a game during the weekends, but it seems that die hard habit has somehow deserted us, NO! Don't blame us, blame those freckled old and kiasu managers in EPL! Gone are the days when 4-4-2 attacking style football dominated the pitch, gone are the days we see high scoring matches with crisp passing and direct attacking play. They use to clear the ball with 2 players up there waiting to attack it. Gone are the days we will hear loud cheers dozens of time in a game, GONE GONE GONE!!!!!

So what happened to all the cool things we use to witness?? Well, it seems that teams are opting for damage control nowadays, reverting to the defensive 4-5-1 style of play. I really cannot call it 4-5-1 though, teams are going for a more comprehensibel defensive lineup of 10-0-0. They clear the ball defensively so that opponent wont get somewhere near to shooting range. They are so defensive nowadays, we hardly hear any cheers after waiting for blurdy 90 minutes infront of the TV, heck I even slept watching 2 teams playing like small kids on the field, no disregards, but I believe they are much better than just sitting down in a defensive position settling for 0-0 most of the time.

So you see, there is a stark contrast between the olden EPL and current EPL, and with the introduction of that Russian clown by the name of "Ohmanasandwich" thinking he is doing good pouring in tonnes of wasted money to buy the championship, he has just made EPL even more boring, what more with the arrogance of "moreinwhore", I can't see how EPL will ever improve. Adios, off to laliga for now.

Oh yeah, the only cheer chelsea brought was beating MU!!!!
