#1, 4/16/24
Topic Sentence: What are your favorite sports players?
Detail: PHIL FODENNNNNNN
Sub Detail: Literally everyone without ball knowledge is going to be saying messi or ronaldo but people who know ball know phil foden is goated
Sub Detail: Man City is the best and all that brother does is score and assist
Detail: JEREMY DOKUUUUUU
Sub detail: best dribbling in the game
Sub detail: I studied the boyyyy

Sub detail: Pep is sooooo smart and an amazing manager anybody under him is goatedÂ
Sub detail: Haaland, Gvardiol, Bernardo, GREALISHHHHHH, Kova, Alvarez, Ake, Walker, Ederson I COULD GO ON AND ON AND ONNNNNNN
Conclusion
Something about me is that I know everything about the beautiful game. Every player, every team, every stat, every fact, literally everything, so if you’re going to listen to anyone, listen to me because I’m definitely not going to be biased towards Man City. Actually, I’m not, Man City just has amazing players. First of all, Phil Foden, the city starboy who scores, assists, and does it all. I have seen him in real life and can admit he is him. Everyone is probably saying in their American fan voice: “I like Christian Pulisic and Ronaldo because Pulisic is American and Ronaldo is the goat of Soccer.” A real fan would pay attention to the stats, and a real American fan would say football, not soccer, and drop the US National Team conversation. Because when you are an American fan, you have to pay attention to Europe and South America and drop the US. Also, Phil Foden’s stats and goals prove it all. Not to leave out the fact that his goals are screamers! Second of all, my griddy boy, Jeremy Doku! Many people don’t know this Belgian lad, but if you’ve seen him play in real life like me, you know this brother can dribble. I also did a study project on him, and he has an incredible story. Finally, I CAN’T CHOSE… EVERY MAN CITY PLAYER! Anyone who plays under Pep is just naturally good because Pep is the best manager in the world, not only according to me, but reporters and pundits too. On City, he’s coached the likes of Gvardiol, Bernardo, GREALISHHHHHH, Kova, Alvarez, Ake, Walker, Ederson, Dias, and more. Not to leave out some old ones like Mahrez, Gundogan, Aguero, Toure, David Silva, and Zabletta. After all, this might sound really egotistical but no one knows footy like me, and those are my favorite players.

Conclusion
CMON CITEH! Man City is playing Real Madrid today and I’m incredibly confident that Man City can take home a win. Firstly, we have a fully fit and in-form squad that has been earning high-scoring wins lately. Walker is starting and Ake is benched, and that’s a huge boost that their back. Our recent results have been 4-1, 4-2, and 5-1 and Real Madrid should be scared. Second of all, we’re at the Etihad, The Home of The Champions. The atmosphere will be buzzing! And that home advantage will drive city to a win. Finally, we have two special players, both Croatian, who are in great form. Mateo Kovacic and Josko Gvardiol! Josko is scoring amazing goals and it’s the perfect time for him to score AGAIN versus Real Madrid. Though Kovacic is off, he can come on off the bench and make a HUGE impact. After all, CMON CITEH! CMON CITEH! CMON CITEHHHH!

Topic sentence

SDS: mistakes
Cant believe
D: Phil Foden underperforming
SD: city off day
Pep yelling
D: nicko jackson
Sd: should have scored
SD: I could score um
Conclusion: wemblyyyyyyyyyyyyy
What. A. Game. Man City VS Chelsea was absolutely amazing and even though they should have won, we did it. First of all, it was like Man City never touched a football pitch. We got on the pitch and everyone kept making mistakes, and there was no chemistry within the team at all. I still can’t believe we won. Secondly, Phil Foden kept underperforming. Pep yelled at him. He was just not on his usual game. Finally, if it wasn’t for Bernardo Silva, Chelsea would have won. Nicholas Jackson had all those clear chances and missed all. Even I could score those. After all, WE’RE BACK AT WEMBLEY!

Conclusion
Chelsea VS Arsenal is today, and I’m going to do something a little unique with my warm-up paragraph today. Firstly, defenders. For Raya or Petrovic, I go Raya and for the two fullback positions: Gilchrist or Tomyaisu, and Cucurella or White, I go for Gilchrist and White. For the two center-back positions, I go Gabriel and Saliba without hesitation. Secondly, the midfielders. I go for Declan Rice and Thomas Partey for the first two. For the second one, I go for Odegaard over Enzo Fernandez, easily. Finally, the forwards. I go for Saka over Mudryk, Trossard over Madueke, and Havertz over Jackson, who was horrible at the recent game at Wembley. Cole Palmer is sick, so he can’t play. Chelsea is nothing without him. After all, this game could go either way.

#8 4/25/24
TS: Man City VS Brighton
D: Jeremy Doku should start
SD: Sub him on and he’ll masterclass
SD: Really- Kovacic?
D: Oscar Bobb minutes
SD: Pep should prioritize him as a sub
SD: Wonderkid
D: Bernardo Break
SD: Chelsea Adrenaline
SD: Amazing, but we have a library of midfielders.
C: CMON CITEH!
CMON CITEH! Man City plays Brighton today, and it’s another one of those days where I criticize City’s lineup. Even though it is amazing, I would make three changes and suggestions to Pep. Firstly, Jeremy Doku should start. You’ll see that when he is subbed on, he will show a masterclass. Kovacic instead of him? Did you see his 90 VS Luton? Secondly, Oscar Bobb should be highly prioritized as a sub. He needs minutes to grow as a future city baller. The only nickname the kid owns now is Wonderkid. Finally, Bernardo needs a break. He has so much adrenaline in him from Chelsea, let him calm down a bit. He is amazing, but we have a library of midfielders. After all, CMON CITEHHHH!

Man City VS Brighton was a joy to watch. Firstly, we kept total possession. Pep must be pleased. I think City are ready to win the league! Secondly, De Bruyne popped off! That header… whoosh. He is definitely in the best midfielder of all-time conversation. Finally, Phil Foden continued to grow. That free kick was absolutely amazing. Is he the best player in the world right now? After all, Man City was amazing VS Brighton! CMON CITEH!
