AUSSIE IS HERE

The Australian open is here again and Ft9 takes you through some talking points .
Lean back in your seat and take it all in .

ROGERER FEDERER AIMS FOR TOP SPOT


Roger Federer who's name  my phone hasn't auto-corrected this week --Hallelujah! wants to be on top of the heap of Tennis players again as he enters this years Aus. Open .
The 5 time Australian open winner wants to defend his title and make this year's title his sixth and probably last .
Can the 2012 Olympic silver medalist win this years tournament ? Is he  still  fit as the federer in 2004 ?
He plays Aljaz Bedene in round  one of the tournament .


NO SERENA WILLIAMS

The 7 time Australian Open winner will not be participating in this years tournament and it's for the reason you just imagined .
Serena Williams is the boss when it comes to female tennis and she plays when she wants to and win when she wants including beating her own sister .
The 2017 winner wont be e defending her title as she is not in the level she wishes to be for this tournament

THE END 


Wondering why there is no 3rd talking point ?
Novak Djokovic is not pulling out and so there is no number 3
Thank you for reading  .... Bye

APPIAH RETURNS

Ghana’s favourite son is back or should I say Kotoko’s star boy is back. Judging from the poor management of Ghana’s former coach - Avram Grant, It was imperative that Ghanaian fans will turn on him . Coach Avram Grant’s stay in Ghana as the head coach of the senior side and earning close to about 250,000 cedis was seen as greedy and wicked by ordinary citizens who hardly made any income in the supposedly corrupt Government, that was sent packing in the 2016 general elections. Avram Grant left the coaching position and the Country in the first week of February,2017 after repeated speculations that he was going to be fired within that month – could say he prevented a major career disgrace! Avram Grant will surely not be missed by Ghanaians in anyway ,but one person who’s exit from the senior national side was missed by most Ghanaians in the “Don of Grant”  was Ghana’s own James Kwesi Appiah ,who managed the senior side from 2012-2014 and went into the record books as the first Ghana

POGBA UNDERRATED

Paul Pogba was bought at a record 89 million ponds -- The highest Man U has ever spent on a player. Paul Pogba's extraordinary transfer fee could have been avoided had Alex Ferguson not sold him to Juventus, whiles he was trying to find grounds at Old Trafford. Paul Pogba has widely been criticized for his pathetic performance at the Old Trafford and has been cited as one of the most disappointing transfers in the club's history. Pogba's performance isn't that disappointing but considering his transfer fee and the hype building to and after his transfer makes his performance unsatisfactory Paul Pogba is, however, starting to become the player he was at Juventus as he beat big names like Hazard and Neymar to lead the Assist chart across Europe. He has played just 13 games whiles his fellow competitors are averaging over 20 games -- Leroy Sane & Debruyne. Is Podga underrated considering his Hard work and influence in Manchester United'S Rejuv

RONALDINHO RETIRES

We all knew it was just a matter of time before Ronaldinho unofficially called it quits in football, but just like all the great things,  it came unexpectedly and the FOOTBALL world is proud and sad at the same time. Ronaldinho brought something that had been missing in the game of football --Style. Football had style way before Ronaldinho came, but after seeing his style and craft, we knew we had been seeing garbage all those times. He had the pace of a Ferrari and Turing force of an F16 Raptor. He literally moved pass anyone who faced him in a duel and sometimes managed to get some little time off to entertain fans to do that extra dribble for the joy of millions. The world has been flooded by footballers who try to imitate  Ronaldinho's style of play but the never gets to that level we saw in Ronaldinho. Everybody wants to be like Ronaldinho after watching his Videos but never has anyone reached the pinnacle of Ronaldinho's success, except Ronaldinho himself
