PREMIER LEAGUE MONTLHY REPORT - APRIL

 





I haven’t done much with my writings in 2+ weeks. That’s because after I was done with my Yakuza 6 review, I felt burnt out from outside factors. This burnout caused my creativity to take a nap for a while to make the bad thoughts go away, kinda like me when I take a nap after a long hard day from classes, or from when I want to forget of Man United’s wonderful season thus far. This was also the reason why I didn’t write anything about April on the last day of said month. Although the matchweek was still ongoing, so I thought I’d wait it out until I can write a thing or two about the month. This feels like my original posts when I started writing about my football reports, all of them based on the matchweeks rather than the whole month. Only change here is that I won’t include the games that took place in the first few days of May.

With that out of the way, let’s see what’s happened in April…



ARSENAL & MANCHESTER CITY

April started off great for Arsenal, as they beat Leeds United 4-1. A good April fool’s joke. You know what else is a good April fool’s joke? THEIR DROP OF FORM!!! The whole month has been a downhill since that win. 2-2s versus Liverpool, West Ham and Southampton, and a humiliating, yet predictable defeat from Man City. These last few games have been very effective on their hopes of winning the title early. The points dropped allowed City to catch-up with them and even surpass them to become the League’s top dogs. Speaking of City, they destroyed everything in April. Beat Bayern Munich to advance to the semis in the UEFA Champions League; Haaland became the League’s all-time scorer. Now on top of the table. Like fuck!


Have Arsenal bottled it?


MANCHESTER UNITED & LIVERPOOL

My beloved United, why are you so stupid?

You lost the first game of the month. 2-0 to Newcastle. Then, you went on to win games and do great. 1-0 against Brentford, followed by a 2-0 win against Everton. Then another 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest. But that didn’t last long, as you bottled your chances for the semis in the Europa League by drawing the first game 2-2, WHICH SHOULD’VE BEEN A WIN!!! That bottling was cemented with a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Sevilla. Less said about the games that followed, the better. We’re at least in the final of the FA Cup. Expecting to bottle that as well.


Liverpool on the other hand, did well. Despite a 4-1 loss to City, the other games have been fantastic. 6-1 win versus Leeds, two cool back to back comeback wins against Nottingham and West Ham, but the best is saved for last: A LEGENDARY 4-3 WIN AGAINST SPURS! Jota, in the last moments of the game, scored the winner to give Liverpool the 3 points, to give the fans an orgasm that they’ll remember for a long time, and a Premier League classic. And they’re slowly creeping up on us. JUST LET THE SEASON END NOW, PLEASE!!! I CAN’T STAND THIS ANYMORE!!!





TOTTENHAM & CHELSEA

London clubs are shite, mate.

Chelsea’s April can be summarized with LDLLLLL. And Spurs…Uh…6-1 loss to Newcastle United.

Not worth giving my report on these two…

Absolute shite...


NEWCASTLE & ASTON VILLA

I mean, Jesus Christ, son! Newcastle are on fire this season. All that funding from their new owner is blessing them with plenty of wins, good team morale, new fans, and Champions League spot for the next season. On top of that, they made quick work of Spurs, with their 6-1 thrashing over “The Lilywhites” which was humiliating, sad and hilarious.



Aston Villa, are the other shock of the season. Last season they were on the brink of relegation, and now they’re 8th. Unai Emery is the hero they needed all this time. His masterful plan on pressure and possession has led the team on a fantastic streak in April. Every team that faced Villa was reported to have nightmares, because in their dreams, they would often time hear the notorious words of: “GOOD EBENING!!!”





HIGHLIGHTS

- Manchester City vs Arsenal

- Arsenal vs Chelsea

- Manchester United vs Everton

- Liverpool vs Spurs

- Newcastle vs Spurs

- Aston Villa vs Newcastle



TABLE





Another month done, one more to go. What will happend in May? Who knows? The end of the season is upon us, so let's get hype for what's to come.


My thoughts and prayers go to all the families and relatives that lost their loved ones during the shootings in Serbia on May 3rd and May 4th. May God protect you all, the innocent souls to rest in peace, and that this madness is stopped as soon as possible.

☦ Почивајте у миру драги анђели. Ни криви ни дужни, прерано сте напустили свет. Лака вам земља.
