Thursday was here and the double Classics & Ancient History got cancelled, because of some incident that happened in the classroom.
And since that was my last lecture of the day, Charlie and I went to the cafeteria for something to eat.
On the way, David, Ryan and Logan joined us in the hallway.

"Oh come on, Liverpool won't win the Premier League this season." Ryan argued with Logan who rolled his eyes towards him.
Logan is a very proud supporter of Liverpool along with his family. Whereas both David and Ryan are on Man United, so you can imagine how this argument is going to end up in.

"Liverpool has won every single game in the League this season and has become unbeaten on their home ground. While your team are stuck on at thirteenth and fourteenth on the chart." Logan argued with a big grin on his face and although I don't support either teams for good reasons.

I found it very surprising that Man United hasn't been dominating the League lately. I was even surprise when I watched Liverpool practically crashed Barcelona with 4-0.
Just shows how the team was determine to win that game after their lost against Messi.

David scoffed with that look of unbelief which doesn't always get seen often by him, "Your team is winning only out of pure luck. And although they've improved pretty much over the years. They'll won't be able to win the League."

This argument had been going on like this all the way to the cafeteria. By the time we got our food and a empty table, the boys kept on arguing,

"And this is another reason why I prefer baseball instead of soccer." Charlie said to me in a low voice before David quieted both Ryan and Logan down.

Then turned towards me, "Ariel, can you please set the record straight for us."

Raising an eyebrow while chewing slowly before swallowing, "What record exactly?"

It's important that I knew what these three guys were asking from me, because one word out of me will be like a reset button for their argument. And this girl wanna eat in peace.

"Sine you don't support either of our teams or any of the teams in the League. You are the only person out of the three of us who can dismiss this argument without being bias." David explained, smiling to himself with this pride for the idea while Ryan and Logan nodded in understanding after they'd caught on.

After David and I had cleared the air between the two of us yesterday. We were spent an hour or two talking about Logan's Fantasy Premier League's team against Lola's.
Which led us having a full on almost argument on the two's tactics and the players they both chosen for their teams.

"So, you're saying that in this case, I'm the un-bias party?" I asked just to make it clear to all three boys more than to myself. In case one of them thinks that I'm not taking either one of their sides.

Which I don't want to, because my mind is not set on soccer or the League for now, but rather on the food in front of me. "And whatever I say, you three just have to accept it no matter what, right?"

All three of them nodded their heads at once which was almost scary in a way. Ignoring the thought and started reviewing both teams in my heads before I started saying,

"Well, as David had said before that Liverpool had improved massively ever since Jürgen Klopp became manager and signed players who has been taking the team to a new level such as Mo Salah, Virgil Van Dijk, Sadio Mané and Alisson.

Man United still has strong players like Rashford, Pogba, Jesse Lingard and Anthony Martial who are capable to scoring three more points for their team. Although on my honest option, they have in a sense last their touch when it comes to winning the League. And that is pretty much a first for Man Untied.
And Liverpool does look like the most dominated team in the League for 2019/20 season and they could actually win the title."
