EPL Gameweek 5 is here *growls* and Lord is it a cruel animal. Despite Manchester United’s best efforts, they suffered a cruel home loss with their contenders Tottenham, Liverpool, and Man City sailing through, albeit with some struggle. Here’s how EPL GW 5 went and Lord was it rough… rooooooarrrr!!!!!

Ange, The Man, The Legend: Spurs Beat Sheffield United

The most exciting fixture of EPL GW 5 so far was Spurs vs. Sheffield United. Sheffield were out for blood and finally managed a lead goal in the 73rd minute via Gustavo Hamer. Things were looking to go very awry for Spurs at this point, with the man Ange in a fit of visible anger that could only mimic an angry lion in a cage *roar*.

Normal time came and went and the game got a few added minutes of stoppage time. Ange was still in his stance and 8 minutes in, Richarlison pulled what was a fantastic equalizer, much to the relief of everyone, except the SHU fans of course. Stoppage time went on and out of the blue, like Chelsea are off the top 10 in the league table, Dejan Kulusevski scored Tottenham’s winning goal two minutes later, prompting Ange to throw his hands up, fists locked in an acknowledgment of his victory. Spurs had managed the unlikely and beaten Sheffield United 2-1, with both goals going in during stoppage time.

Look Out! It’s Ange Postecoglou

Ange has been a phenomenal coach for Spurs, a team that was flailing only last season. He’s managed to bring fire and fury to the club in a way that has enabled them good success. I have always been adamant that we should all look out for this man, because I know he’s going to bring a storm to the Premier League this season. You may not realize it by now, but Ange is quickly becoming a legendary manager.
