Week 6 has
just passed and here The Writer offers his view on the key performers and performances
of the week that are worth mentioned. The award goes to...
Top
3 Performers of the Week
Gold Medal
(1st): Yannick Bolasie
Whoever is
yet to know Yannick Bolasie, sure have to do it now. He is better than Wilfried
Zaha, definitely. Manchester United should actually buy him rather than Zaha
last year. Bolasie is as quick as Zaha but his style and skills are a way above
Zaha. In the match against Leicester, he showed those speed, style, and skills
in abundance. Even in front of Leicester’s goal post. He got composure too. Opposition
defenders were tricked by his movement all day and he was the main reason why
Leicester cannot continue their impressive winning form.
Silver
Medal (2nd): Willian
Much has
been said about Diego Costa’s 8th goal of the season against Aston
Villa. But the one who’s star shined the most in that match was Willian the
Brazilian. He showed in this match on why Mourinho always love him rather than
Mo Salah. Willian is a not typical flashy Brazilian but he worked hard for the
team. Nevertheless, he can attack brilliantly too. He scored a goal and got an
assist in a game where Chelsea dominated for majority of the time.
Bronze
Medal (3rd): Mario Balotelli
This
choice is surely not other people’s preference. But The Writer cannot resist to
pick Balotelli. Yes he did not score any goal. However his game play was
absolute class. He also was very willing to chase the ball all over the pitch
and he was the cause of Gerrard getting a free-kick to score. People should be
more relax on him on this evidence. He is improving and he also slowly changes
his attitude. Brendan Rodgers should actually not risking Balotelli in a tense
derby game like this, but Balotelli manage to control his temper admirably. At
least for the time being.
Worst
3 Performers of the Week
Rubbish (1st):
Wayne Rooney
Player who
got a red card will always be considered to receive the worst performer of the
week award. And Rooney more than deserved this rubbish award. How can you kick
someone and then declared it as an overacted foot trip? He deserved his 3 match
ban too.
Scrapped
Paper (2nd): Eliaquim Mangala
Mangala should
know by now that there is never an easy game in the English Premier League. A
top class performance last week against Chelsea was followed by this bad one
against Hull City. Maybe he forgot to train as hard as he did last week. An own
goal and a foul for opposition penalty was too bad for a player of his potential.
Reject
Paper (3rd): Sean Dyche
This is a
surprise choice. For the first time, a manager is on the list of worst
performer. But Sean Dyche cannot feel sorry for himself. His Burnley was beaten
comfortably by West Brom and they still have not managed a win for the new season.
Worst part is they have the most difficult barren spell of scoring goals. Dyche
needs to pressure his strikers to start scoring. If not, Burnley will go down
relegated easily.
Goal
of the Week
The best
goal of this week 6 goes to Charlie Austin. And also Graziano Pelle.
Yes, we have two winners for this week. Both goals were beautiful and they were
both made in the same match. It is very difficult for The Writer to choose
which is better. The goal scored by Austin was absolute high in technicality.
The way he quickly took 2 steps in just a short time to shoot the ball was
brilliant, and the ball was not even dropped to the floor. It was a striker’s
dream goal. The goal scored by Pelle was also good in term of technicality.
Whoever can score a bicycle kick goal can be considered a good striker. It was
a difficult goal but striker like Pelle made it so simple. And yet so
beautiful.
