It is no longer new to us that the English premier league has started. We are now experiencing different amazing performance and for sure we are not new to how it is done. We know that some team at this stage will be in great run, give them from now till five (5) weeks time they will fall behind again. Team that maintain such attribute are usually those team from relegation zone or those smaller team who wanted to prove their relevance. For sure It is not bad ranking high but bear it in mind that it is only consistency that will help to sees you occupying such position for long term.

I have seen team coming straight from the relegation zone and they end up winning the trophy. Example of such team is Leicester city, they came from the lower division into the English premier league and they won the English premier league in that year. When they were winning matches we were all saying they will surely drop point. While we were used to seeing team from the lower division occupying the first position for a long period of time, we thought same will happen with Leicester city. We belittle them and never take them seriouy as at that time. It all boils to a stage that the entire half season passed and they were still occupying the top position.

Despite them occupying such position, I was still saying that it is not possible for them to win the English premier League. This was because I was still riding on the old mentality that those smaller team or those team from relegation zone or lower division will always want to prove their worth by performing amazing well at first. I know they will not have the zeal and determination to move forward. I said all this and some of my friends were all saying same thing also.

Now the second (2nd) half season start and it was still Leicester city that was still topping, the only thing we can boost of then was that we have Manchester city chasing them so I was very sure that they will slip to Manchester city. Day in day out, different matches was played and we keep seeing them getting strong, this really got me worried as at that time. I was left dumbfounded because I was expecting the team to lack focus and concentration or for fatigue to set in but the more I hope the more they gain focus and determination. This is how we washed Leicester city wins the English premier league.

To add to the wound, Leicester city proved to us that they didn't win the English premier league base on luck, they won it base on hard work. If you take a closer and proper look at the team you will see that since the day they won the English premier league they have grown their status. They are no longer referred to as small team but they are now among the English premier league top team. Check their status you will see that year in year out they are always occupying the top 6 position which is amazing.

That aside and back to what we have at hand, Manchester city the defensive champions lost to Tottenham Hotspur. First of all I won't be using this first match to judge the city's team. This is because the English premier league is just starting, all team have more time to bounce out of their challenges. I remembered last year that Manchester city won the English premier league. If you noticed you will see that they performed so badly in the first quarter and as time goes on they picked their form and with determination they won the English premier league. Same thing might still happened this season, Pep Guardiola is a very wise coach and he has proven that by winning numerous trophies. I believe this lost won't impact his team, he will surely turn things around as time goes on.

Come to think of it, Tottenham Hotspur is not an easy side too, this is why the lost should not be taken too seriously. The match started well for both side not until in the 55th minute that Heung-Min Son scores from Steven Bergwijn assist. I love the goal because it was really a nice working. We all knows that Heung-Min is not goal shy, if you give him chance he will surely convert the ball well. So, the match ended 1 nil in favour of Tottenham Hotspur and it was an away fixture for the Manchester city team.

The growing question is that should we be worried for Manchester city as they lost their opening match to Tottenham Hotspur or not? Please air your view by commenting.
