Exactly Haaland is not a key component for Manchester City’s success this season, even without him, Manchester City will win the league because he was not the my important player in the squad.
Last season, I will agree with @Rebekker that Manchester City’s success depends on Haaland goals because he was the main man in the squad that score the most important hold that determine their success in their last season’s Premier League championship.

Haaland's performance last season wasn’t really good compared to other seasons, he wasn’t able to score many goals last season. Most defenders already understand how to attack Haaland, so he is not always given much space in matches. Things got worse for Haaland when De Bruyne went on injury, he is the one that’s always giving Haaland assistance in most matches. Seriously, I wasn’t also impressed with Haaland's performance last season, I expect more from him.

In most matches, Haaland is not always given much space. If you notice, in some matches, Haaland is being attacked by two or three defenders, so it’s always difficult for Haaland to beat them. In some matches, you won’t even know that Haaland is on pitch because he is not always given any opportunity.

Todd's mistake that he still doesn't fully realize that it is not right is that he is too hasty in taking a stance on both player and coach changes that make the situation the same every season for Chelsea because they have to make updates and adaptations at the start of the season.  But for now this Poche case is a little different because after all we must be aware that what happened to Poche was that he really wanted to leave by resigning not being fired so there was no other way for Todd to keep this coach.

Poche from the start was doubtful but his performance this season by managing to bring Chelsea to a better direction even to a more decent position when compared to last season was actually very good so indeed his departure this season was a little unfortunate but indeed no one can prohibit it because when the decision has been taken then inevitably now Chelsea must look for new coaching .

If indeed the news is true, of course it will be the happiest news for Arsenal fans at this time, in the last two seasons Arsenal have failed to win the championship trophy, because the inconsistency of their game towards the end of the season, in addition of course, the lack of contribution of the central striker has been one of the factors that did trigger the failure of Arsenal to win,  So far we can see if Arsenal attack is too focused on the wing line so that when they face a team that has a strong enough defense certainly makes it difficult for Arsenal to improvise in creating chances to score, the arrival of Sesko will certainly be able to make Arsenal have a dangerous trio in their front line next season.

Saka, sesko, martinelli or trossard will certainly be a very lethal trio because of their speed, skill and also their finishers are quite good, Sesko who plays for Leipzig has been known as one of the strikers who has a fairly good finisher in front of the opponent's goal so far, Sesko managed to become one of the players who this season attracted the interest of big Premier League clubs after scoring 14 goals from 31 games this season and certainly lucky enough if Arsenal can get him at the moment.   

Although Haaland has managed to become the top scorer since joining Manchester City but anyway, the fact is that as far as I remember it seems like Haaland has never scored in the final match played so far since Haaland playing at Mancheser City. Thus, I think Haaland still often gets stuck too to be able to make a goal, or maybe the tight guarding and discipline of the opposing players make Haaland unable to play well. But indeed, although Haaland looks like he is not doing as much work as Bruyne, Foden and other players, but at least Haaland is a way for the opposing defenders to focus more on Haaland's movements. Therefore, Haaland quite rarely gets possession of the ball, and because Haaland is a target man, of course other Manchester City players look to work or move more than Haaland.

Yeah, there's no meeting between both clubs not even between the agent of the player and the club right now. We saw a picture of him after the game Arsenal played against Manchester United but no formal talks have been held, just like you said they're rumours and let them continue to be rumours.

These are the names I expected them to make moves for bit they're definitely looking at a younger player who can grow with the squad. Alexander Isaak isn't a bad player in my opinion and he's got a good understanding of how the Premier League Competition goes and will be the best to blend in immediately.
There's no news confirmed by Fabrizio Romano at the moment.
I think they had a good season, all they need now is a goalscorer and a new midfielder' just if Thomas Partey leaves or gets Injured.

It's evident that Arteta's signings have made good contributions to the team's squad over the past two seasons. While some players have not met initial expectations, they've still brought value to the team. Gabriel Jesus have not really performed as expected due to injuries and perhaps being slightly beyond anticipated performance levels, he still has the potential and has likely added competition within the squad.

 Ramsdale joining the team made him take over as Arsenal's main goalkeeper, leaving aside Leno from the starting lineup. Though he faced competition a little from Raya, it doesn't cover his abilities. It rather shows the competition Arteta has created within the team. Also, Havertz's journey at Arsenal started with some disappointments, but he's proved his worth with 13 goals and 7 assists. This underscores Arteta's skill for nurturing talent and allowing players to adapt and flourish within his space.

 While there may be various success ranges among the players, it's wrong to label them failures. Each player has been impactful to the squad in their own way. Arteta's ability to work on his players to blend to his vision for the team speaks of his managerial abilities and portrays that even players who initially derail can find their bearings and become essential  to the club's success.

Haaland didn't make Manchester city to win a title, rather it was Manchester city that made Haaland to win a title. Manchester city is used to winning titles while Haaland wasn't used to winning titles until he joined Manchester city.

He is doing a good job just like other players in the team. But if you have to compare the players work, you will understand that KDB, Rodry, Bernardo and Foden are doing more works than him.

He should be an enrichment to his club and not to EPL.

Actually, the biggest thing is, they trusted him with their money. He has spent a lot of money. But that is absolutely fine because he has been able to bring in good results. Any club is definitely not going to have any issues with the coach if he is able to bring in good results. They are going to give him more money to spend so that he can bring in better results. That's exactly what is going to happen with Arsenal and Arteta. He has shown improvement. I am pretty sure that Arsenal is going to give him money to spend. With that money Arsenal is going to improve the depth of the squad. That is one thing that they had been suffering. Whenever they have an important player injured, the performance seems to be going down. That is something that they will be looking to fix. And yes I agree that they also need good midfielders and attackers

The truth is that even though Arsenal was able to win against Aston Villa in the second leg, I am sure they smay lost to another team. Last season, Arsenal experienced this kind of thing, and that is what made them fail to win the league.same thing repeated this season, which is not supposed to be. I don't know why a team can do well throughout the beginning and the middle of the season, but toward the end of the season, they will mess up with one or two matches that they know if they fail to win. They will fail to have the opportunity of winning the match again.

What really caused Arsenal to lose to Aston Villa this season was the information that Arteta provided. Honestly, I did not expect Arteta to come up with that information. He should have just played Jakub Kiwior instead of Oleksandr Zinchenko because it was Zinchenko who was overlapping, and it was his position where Aston Villa was pushing their attack. I just wish Arteta can learn from his mistakes, which have cost him the Premier League over the last two seasons, and be able to correct them.

Recently, There is a rumour that Benjamin Sesko has Agreed to join Arsenal, if it was happened, Sesko will be brought and will cost Arsenal around £45m, but until now, there aren't any further confirmations from Arsenal regarding this transactions.

Even though, Arsenal still needs some considerations, and also Arsenal possibly could change their targetted player from their list, because it was happened to Ivan Toney and Alexander Isak, as I've read on Mirror ^[1].

He would not be winning a golden boot if manchester city was not winning EPL again. The bad thing is haaland's total goals scored this season is still less compared to the last season. This is why im feeling disappointed with his performance caused by it was far from my expectation.
I know that but his performance in UCL was really disappoint me. It was not the same as when city was winning UCL last season. haaland did nothing in UCL this season.
Haaland is a beast striker but his consistency is still remain the main problem at this moment. I don't know what things that make him struggle in EPL but he needs to improve it asap.

They are weaknesses and they don't have because in several games I was not satisfied with the way they played if we continue to adopt that same pattern then we won't win any trophies and starting from Saka the boy did not play good football this season like last season, I don't think defense is our problem here, the performance of our strikers have dropped and we are sometimes finding it difficult to finish everyone knows that last season is still far better than this season. the attack and midfield need to be worked on if not we might still not have the opportunity to win the premier league and the management needs to get some things in a collection, we hope they will work on our players and have a better next season.



This season was even more drama than last season from the beginning to the end because from the beginning clubs like Tottenham and Brighton, and the rest were playing very well all of a sudden the game changed and at the end of the day look at those that were domination the top 3 on the table. in football, anything can happen. arsenal will not learn because i do not see any special performance that Manchester City performs but at the end of the day, they will still win the Champions League. defense is not something to depend on alone with football. their other position that will also bring balance and they will be able to defeat their opponent. no news about transfers but we do need fresh blood because I no longer understand what Saka played this season.

I also had the same thought. A coach should be given the opportunity for at least 3 seasons, to see if he can make a difference and what the progress of his plans is. If it's just one season, that's too fast because not all coaches can adapt quickly, so what he had planned could not work optimally, and it's not certain that in such a short time he can build a solid atmosphere in the dressing room.

Now Enzo Maresca is the new hope for Chelsea, but if it recurs and doesn't work out according to Todd Boehly's expectations, so it is not surprising that Enzo Maresca will have the same fate as Mauricio Pochettino.

Haaland did a great job to make Manchester City win a title.

He is doing a good job like scoring goals. Also his shirt is a very nice blue and he kind of looks like a big baby a little bit. lol

He is an enrichment for Premier League!
What do you think?

Hannya's luck has not been on Arsenal's side even though in these two seasons they have been able to compete, at least in these two seasons there is a very important lesson for Arteta and Arsenal, to focus more on work next season and at least there are players who must be included in Arsenal's squad for the season.  the front is stronger than this season, and at least focus on the game so that the points obtained are not lost.
