Resurrection players of the resurrection weekend.

   When he wasn't a regular in Louis Van Gaal's side week in week out earlier this season, I wondered if I was the only one who didn't believe Ander Herrera should be a regular in the Manchester United starting eleven. His fluidity is orgasmic. No homo. The Spaniard flourished in the centre of the pack for United during pre season but was thrown into obscurity by the United technical crew as the season progressed. He became a bit part player. A role I felt was never meant for him in the colours of Manchester United. His energy in the middle of the pack reminds one of the hey days of Darren Fletcher. His incisive passes in the middle of the pack and especially in the final third is a beauty. He is an adventure in itself.
   In the absence of Mr. Manchester United, Michael Carrick due to injury, football fans expected Mr. Van Gaal to throw in the former Athletic Bilbao player. But no, Van Gaal had other plans. In the past weeks however, he was given a run of games hence his resurgence. The way he glides through the midfield is a beauty to behold. He covers every blade of grass on the field. He backtracks to cover up for mistakes. Little wonder then his performances in the last few weeks. He had an outstanding performance against Aston Villa over the weekend where he capped his man of of the match performance with a brace. He is yours' sincerely EPL resurrection player of the resurrection weekend.
   Cristiano Ronaldo? That man is bad ass! Rumour has it that his immediate past girlfriend's break up with him was what plunged him into a lack of form. If there is any substance to it, that is a confirmation of the fact that he is human after all. Jesus Christ sure carried him along in his resurrection. He resurrected with our Lord and Saviour. If you don't think so, how then do you explain his five goal hit in Real Madrid's game against Granada on Sunday? Whereas his eternal rival was duly pocketed by Celta Vigo, C-Boy was having a filed day at the Santiago Bernabeau. If as a football fan you say Messi is your better choice between the two, no issues. But if you say Cristiano is not a fantastic footballer, you are an enemy of the game and I have one piece of advice for you; Indian hemp is not for everyone. Away with it!
   Cristiano Ronaldo is my World Resurrection Player of the resurrection weekend.
