I wish I could always talk about other sports other than football, having played the gentleman’s game – cricket. Writing about cricket would have been a lot of fun except that not many people would be able to follow it because of its language. Cricket isn’t dead in Nigeria. Those who played at all levels in the 70s and 80s know its importance and have formed clubs with most them reminding everyone about where they learned the game – in those wonderful schools across the country.
Would I say that I played football? Well, I did but not play it to the required standard since one couldn’t call GCU a football school in the same way as one would tag schools such as Hussey College Warri, Urhobo College, Warri, Western Boys High School Benin City, Eghosa College Benin City, Saint Patrick School Asaba, Saint Peters Claver College, Aghalope, etc in the old Bendel State.
Punters have likened the presence of Everton and Crystal Palace to the case of the elephant hung on the treetop with weak branches. It wouldn’t take time for these teams to fall off the perch. A few others have argued that Leicester and Arsenal have won the English Premier League title in the past, they do not have the character to last long in the race, which many also argue is a marathon.
Arsenal beat Liverpool in the second leg of the last EPL at the Emirates 2-1 at the time the Reds had won its first EPL in the new era, although its 19 titles at the elite class. Gunners won the Community Shield at Wembley Stadium on a penalty shootout, after a 1-1 score after 90 minutes, making Monday’s game an all systems go for the Reds.
