Being a fan of Arsenal and Ferrari plus tracking Royal Challengers supposedly the Bangalore team, lots of disappointments in last 2 weeks for teams in red.
Arsenal may go without silverware this season too. They were never in running for PL title, lost to Chelsea in the FA. The performance in CL first semis doesn’t inspire too much hope for entering the finals. Though very talented bunch of kids probably will become word class but right now looks like they can’t stand up to the toughies in PL. Half the team seems injured most the timeL. They still lack the cutting edge in front and back of the field. Cesc, Theo and Ashravin seem to have brought the sense of solidity in centre. Let me hope as usual that they would win next year.
Ferrari seems directionless this season after the change in rules. Diffuser, KRES, yet all, it is confusing. My bet is they will eventually catch up this year but may not win either driver or constructors championship. Next year they will back at the top.
RCB was thought to have shed its Test image but results are only slightly better. They possess one of the most talented sides, new and expensive captain. Things continue to go wrong. Well hope AK will be better luck than KP or RD. No amount of analysis will help to find what the problem is. The problem is with name; you can’t name a team after whiskey and expect team to win. They can only be challengers not winners. There is no passion in the team or supporters. How can you expect passion when you can’t relate to the image it has. Other teams have a local flavor in their promos. Here you have a sardar and K Kaif in their video. How can we relate to team which doesn’t not think of Bangaloreans/kannadigas. Others have their own team to support.
Being a fan you always have next season to hope for.
