By the end of matchday 15 of the English premier league, incredibly, Fulham was still the table-topping club in the elite tier of the English premiership.

"Max, again, it's another matchday of the English premier league. I have to say yes, you got me on this one, Fulham have really exceeded my expectations by far this season. But I still believe that they won't win the league".

"So, tell me, with the Merseyside derby at Goodison Park between Everton and Liverpool postponed, of the 9 matches that were played in this matchday, which of them do you think was the best and provided the most entertainment value".

After listening to the question, Max, the premier league pundit flashed a smile. "My biased mind would say Fulham vs Arsenal. I mean, the S factor partnership was in full display, you needed to see Sam operate man". He laughed.

"But then, if I say that, I would be lying to my true self".

"Despite how much I don't want to admit it, Charles, I have no choice but to accept it that Tottenham vs Chelsea was the true outstanding game of this matchday and it was not even close".

"Chelsea traveled to the home of fierce rivals Tottenham Hotspur, and while they had one of the worst starts to a London derby you could possibly have, Enzo Maresca's men rose to the occasion and pulled off a magnificent comeback, needing two penalties in their favor to do it". Stay tuned with empire

"But man, what a game it was!"

"The true definition of an end-to-end game!"

"My inner yearning for a mind-blowing story could not help but think if Tottenham would actually score an equalizer in stoppage time after Heung Min Son put that 3rd goal behind the Chelsea net".

"Honestly, it was the best game of this matchday by far".

"Going 2 goals down in how many minutes, a Cole Palmer-led Chelsea proved their mettle, proving their credentials in this season's title run-in".

"This season, in terms of influence, I would say Cole Palmer, Mohamed Salah, and Samuel Moses are currently the best players of this season's premier league".

"They've been just so influential for their clubs".

"I would say they're the front runners for the PFA Player of the year award too, they've just been terrific this season".

Hearing that, Charles, the show host chuckled. "It's crazy how you say Samuel Moses so casually and nothing in me even protests it, it's honestly crazy".

"Last season, no one knew Samuel Moses. All we heard was side talk about a talented Nigerian kid who arrived in Fulham, no one expected this, no one expected what we're currently bearing witness to".

"Look at his current transfer value, the kid is rated by transfermarkt for a value over 50 million Euros already".

"He has to be the biggest bargain buy of the century!"

Max laughed. "You're right on that one Charles".

…

While football fans across social media platforms raved about Chelsea's incredible performance and result, noting the similarities in Fulham's performance against Arsenal too, a certain comparison finally arose on social media.

(Cole Palmer vs Samuel Moses)

No one knew who started it exactly, but across social media, polls started being made as a fierce popularity contest started.

Cole Palmer fans clashed against Samuel Moses fans.

In the end, after fierce voting across multiple social media platforms, the better of the 2 players currently was finally decided by majority voting by the fans.

(Cole Palmer- 52% votes)

(Samuel Moses- 48% votes)

Cole Palmer just barely got the edge over Sam in the voting.

The result of the poll caused a ripple effect across social media as it brought more renown to Sam, increasing his popularity even more.

And as his popularity increased was when a certain video suddenly became viral, trending on all viewing social media platforms.

Sam rarely paid attention to social media but he was surprised when even Emile Smith Rowe asked him to enter his tik tok or YouTube account and search for Samuel Moses.

At first, he was reluctant despite the fact that it was Smith Rowe asking until he received a call from a certain phone number.

(Incoming call from Favorite…)

Sam's eyes widened as he got a call from Kayla. 'What happened? Is it that serious?'

When he picked up the call, Kayla said only a single sentence. "Come online, I sent you a video on WhatsApp".

'Huh?' Even more curious now, after the call, Sam finally opened his phone.

As soon as he clicked on the video, his jaw dropped in shock immediately.
