Exams

Hello fellow bloggers

Apologies for being unavailable these past few months,They have been really hectic for me.And now I'm writing exams,so that results in less time on my blog and more on studying.Please bear with me.

By late November I'll be done with my exams and I can blog again freely.But just to kill time the football this weekend was superb.Most of my favourite teams won except FC Barcelona.I think defensively they need to improve.Now that Jeremy Mathieu is injured for 2-3 weeks,Pique really needs to step up and Luis Enrique should start Marc Bartra.He is taller i.e 6'0 as compared to Mascherano who is 5'7.With that I believe Barca can improve defensively and cope against physical sides in La Liga and in Europe.

On the plus,yesterday Chelsea won and I'll be honest it wasnt the best game but they fought for the win.Some might say a draw would have been a fair result but at the end of the day the quality came through.Now to focus on Maribor this week and Liverpool on Saturday who themselves need to win against the mighty Real Madrid to stand any chance of qualifying for the last 16.

In conclusion,I think Chelsea can do well this season and go far in the Champions League.But lets wait and see

Thank you for reading my blog and hope to get reactions soon

Till I blog again

Chelsea v Everton:Kai Havertz impresses in crucial win for the Blues

Image
 Good evening everyone I hope you are well and having a good start to the week. Sorry for the radio silence. It has been a busy couple of weeks, but I'm back now. After winning at Anfield against Liverpool on Thursday night, Chelsea earned a much needed win against Merseyside team Everton on Monday night. The victory puts the Blues in touching distance of Leicester City (3 points) and Manchester United (4 points). So thats 9 games unbeaten in the league for Thomas Tuchel, who has definitely turned things around at Stamford Bridge since his arrival in January.  One  of the positive elements on Monday night was the performance of Kai Havertz. The big money signing from Bayer Leverkusen has flattered to deceive this season but the arrival of the German tactician has definitely improved his performances. Despite not scoring (well his goal was awarded as a Ben Godfrey own goal), he played really well as a false 9 along with fellow countryman Werner, who could have scored a hat...

Champions League: What a week of drama

Image
  Copyright fr.uefa.com Good afternoon everyone I hope you are all well and enjoying the last few weeks of the summer holidays,albeit in difficult circumstances. So the UEFA Champions League made its return 2 weeks ago with 2nd leg ties that still  needed to be played like Chelsea v Bayern Munich, Lyon v Juventus and Manchester City v Real Madrid and boy were there surprises with Lyon making it past the Italian Champions despite a 2-1 defeat and of course the end of Maurizio Sarri's tenure as head coach. Bayern Munich and Man City qualifying werent really shocks as the damage was done in the 1st leg, at least for Chelsea but thats not the exciting part.So for the first time ever 2 French teams in the semis and PSG's first semi final appearance since 1995.  Last Wednesday saw PSG come from behind to defeat Atlanta 2-1 with Marquinhos and Choupo-Moting gettting the goals. Credit to the French champions for digging in deep and not giving up. Now they have a semi final date w...

Chelsea v Southampton: 2 points dropped by the Blues

Image
 Good afternoon everyone  I hope you're well and had a good weekend. So what a dramatic weekend of football we had starting with the Merseyside derby and it continued with Chelsea-Southampton which finished 3-3 after the Saints managed to grab a point at the death thanks to Vestergaard. Once again Chelsea fail to kill off a match and this will cost them dearly come end of the season. Where do I begin? oh yes the defence. With Mendy injured, Kepa was put in the starting XI to prove his worth to the coach and he failed the test. With Thiago Silva being left out with Sevilla to come in midweek it was the duo Zouma-Christiansen and I wasnt convinced one bit. Thankfully Lamaprd will be able to call on him for tomorrow's match and with Man United to come at the weekeend,it'll be interesting to see which team he sends out tomorrow night at the Bridge.Glad that Werner got a double and Havertz scored as well. Hopefully this is the beginning of great things to come. Sevilla will also...
