[Smiling] What is the name of this game we so Love?
How does it get to us so much?
Why did it give us colours?
Sometimes it’s red, this time it’s BLUE.
Not the Blue of London… not the Merseyside Blue… it is the Blue of Manchester.
Congratulations Pep Guardiola and Manchester City. Football chose you. Football blessed you. You must have done something right. You won the battle of records and chance.

1. WOW… the much anticipated day is today. They matches have been played, only that the joy of some was cut short, the shout would have been louder. OMG… Guardiola amazes us. He is still unbeaten. He seems to be the real torn in Mourinho’s flesh. Since Mourinho took Man United’s job, he has been the man to beat Mourinho at Old Trafford. No one else has. To his credit today, he’s made a record of 14 match run in a single season, what Chelsea could not achieve last season. The icing on the Cake is that they are 11 points clear at the top of the Premier League. Hmmm… no real words, just that Football choose City.

2. Be consoled United fans… City didn’t do their thing, you stopped them. Their goals were Set-piece goals, Lukaku really had a bad day defending. City played, but they were scared too. You were the one that scored in open play. Your tactics worked somehow. But cut Chelsea fans some slack to laugh, allow Arsenal fans to jeer, what goes around comes back around. Ederson also made a quick double crazy save #Wink.

3. Think about Football in the spirit of what it is and you will feel us. What was with the draws of today? Why didn’t Liverpool finish Everton off? Was it really a penalty against Lovren? Why always Giroud? Why didn’t the equalizer come earlier to give a win chance? Really a bad weekend for English top teams. Only Tottenham and City had the smile.

4. Atletico’s scoreline was poor too… it wasn’t just a great weekend. Goals wouldn’t just happen. Saul scored in the 30th minute and it was the beginning in our minds… but that’s how it ended. Even Napoli couldn’t go top, couldn’t even score, it amazed us. Barcelona were the lucky ones. Fate was on their side. Villarreal got a red, and they could capitalize. A defense that wouldn’t break before, gave way to Suarez. Messi then force his own, telling fans, Ronaldo won’t catch up – it’s 14 now; I’m 10 on him.

However, take it easy Reds, you have company now Blues, keep your head up Gunners, such is life: Sometimes good, sometimes bad. Celebrate winners like we do. We jeered City and Guardiola last season. Some weren’t convinced still this season. Now we all are. They are flying. They inspire us to keep up no matter what. When your reward comes, it amazes, luck saves you, odds favour you, chance choose you.

[Exhaling] That should be enough said for today… more to come tomorrow as we anticipate Champions League draws. CHEERS EVERYONE: We are Footbalgeria. We Love Football.
