In as much as City won with that awful display from Chelsea I'd like to know what is Enzo Maresca doing as a manager with Jackson on the pitch, starting him every single game? This is something both the board and the fans need to question Enzo Maresca of because this man Jackson has been killing the build up of Chelsea since the beginning of this season, if he had converted some of those chances including the ones that was ruled out for offside I see no reason why the defense of Manchester City shouldn't be scared of him whenever he's with the ball and you'd agree with me that Chelsea should have won this game if he had been up to standard, he should be ashamed of himself and Enzo on the other hand is not acting as a strict manager as he claim to be.

        Wolves vs Arsenal


Arsenal ended the first half with ten men after Lewis-Skelly got a red card on the 43rd minutes of the game for a reckless tackle on Matt Doherty on his right foot ankle. Arsenal is now in a tight corner to win Wolves away from home, because Wolves was also trying their best to see how they can score Arsenal even with their complete players.
It's it's unfortunate, Gomes from Wolves has also been issued red card, after intentionally commiting a rough foul on William Salina, making both clubs now having an equal ten players on the game play, which is literally going to be of better advantage now for Arsenal players. Because I just noticed that just 4 minutes after Gomes was issued red card and Left the field, Arsenal has been able to capitalize on that advantage and scored it's first goal by Calafiori at 74 minutes into the game. But however, let's see what the outcome will be, as I could noticed both wolves and Arsenal really having a tough time at the moment.
It's clear that Arsenal will win this match because the games is balanced based on the number of players, and Arsenal has taken the lead on the 74th minutes. Arsenal almost scored their second goal but it was a weak shot. Raya is doing a great job for his team to secure three points in this match.

The match is now on an additional five minutes and Wolves is pressuring Arsenal defense, but I don't think it will be possible for them to equalize the goal before the end of stoppage time.
And I'm very happy Mikel Arteta and his boys were able to secure today's game three point which I predicted and gambled on, despite the one man down, because to be frankly speaking, we could confess that Wolves did actually played a very fantastic game today, and also having the most ball possession and shots on target, only just that they weren't lucky enough to have won, of which Calafiori took great advantage of, placing Arsenal as second with 47 points, just 6points away from Liverpool taking the lead table with 53 points. However, it was quite an interesting game to watch.

Secondly, Bournemouth did actually surprised me today, winning Nottingham with 5 goals to nil, a clear clean sheet, which we least expected. Hence, placing them 7th on the league table with 40 points.

The two games that I will be looking forward to watching is the Bournemouth/Forest, and Manchester City/Chelsea game.

~snip

I picked these two games for a reason, and I didn't regret myself watching them.
Like I said, the Bournemouth/Forest game is the game between two underdogs. I was never in a hurry to making predictions because I know the results could go in favor of any side. Though, I was expecting goals from both sides, but Bournemouth was never going to let that happen. Another week to praise Kluivert again. He's such a addition to the Bournemouth team, scoring another outside 18yards goal after doing that In their last game if I remember correctly.

And as for Manchester city/Chelsea. What a perfect response from their last defeat, though I can't say that they are fully back on form. Taking that early lead was never enough for Chelsea, as Manchester City ended up returning 3 goals. As it stands, City is currently sitting in top four, which should be something for everyone to start taking note of.

It was a really exciting match, and this is how it should be when two big teams face each other. Just as the match was underway, Chelsea surprisingly managed to score a quick goal after Maduake successfully found the net in the 3rd minute. Man City's new defender has got off to a really bad start as he made a blunder that resulted in a goal for Chelsea, and hopefully, he doesn't get caught up in that unpleasant impression because he was signed to be the solution to Man City's back line (instead of being another problem).

Maybe City's new defender was a little unconfident in his first match, especially since he was a young player. in this match Pep played two of his new arrivals, Abdulkodir Khusanov and Omar Marmoush. I think Pep was quite reckless in playing his two new arrivals, maybe this was because Man City's core players did not satisfy what the coach wanted. in this match Chelsea was able to take the lead first with a quick goal created by Madueke, but unfortunately the advantage did not last long which was replied by Gvardiol until the score became a draw. if in City Abdulkodir Khusanov played with poor performance, while in Chelsea's camp two players, Colwill and the goalkeeper played Underperform. initially I thought the result of this match would end in a draw or City would lose again, but the final result was City who won this match with a final score of 3-1. Man City is now back in 4th place, while Chelsea is in 6th place. on City's side, a good start to victory after a bad match in the Champions League. Meanwhile, Chelsea still have the opportunity to break into the top 4 of the standings, even though the points difference with the team above them is not that obvious.

Either ways one of the things can happen, so is either Manchester City toys with them or Chelsea will toys with them but Manchester City is the only one who got shocked previously. However which of the matches today bit your imagination? Because for me it was the Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest, it start by a goal but the concern was not alarming because any club can face that also when they are still adjusting, so I thought but I didn't no that the adjusting was to be conceiving more goals, by the time it clock two goals then I knew the adjustment has gone bad and they keep coming for Nottingham Forest and the final thing we saw was 5:0 against Nottingham forest without cancellation.

This game is certainly the most surprising for any gambler today because no one was expecting the game to be won with such big margin between the two teams because if not anything it would even be said that Nottingham forest were actually the stronger side but that's totally not the case when the end results came because there totally out done by the home team which wouldn't have been such a big suprise at all if not for the fact that the goal margin was crazy.

Actually I will just say there mind was not there because of the gaps I saw, losing this 3 points is too expensive for Nottingham forest, actually it shouldn't have been Bournemouth that will do this to them even when Liverpool cannot win them, however this will also make Brighton to also want to do what Bournemouth has just done to them next time. Actually now I understand what some persons was saying about Manchester City regaining, wining Chelsea today has just paste it on the wall, it was a tiring one for the players but wining 3:1 is a recovery medication for them.

Madueke scored the opening goal for Chelsea. Mikel Obi will have a lot to say about Jackson in his next podcast. Nicolas Jackson has missed two clear goal opportunities in 30 minutes of the first half. Chelsea are a good club, I love what Enzo Maresca is building with this team but they need to sign a striker that can guarantee them goals because Jackson is not dependable.

Edit: Manchester went on to win the match 3-1. They completely dominated the second half, I didn’t expected Chelsea to fall that easily.
Mikel Obi always have something negative to say, no one tells him the crab he says. He was also in the club and i wondered what really did he make for the club, just tired of seeing  bunch of retired plebs call out others when they are seemingly same.

We know Jackson for always missing chances, but all needs is to motivate and not criticize any player in the team.

Impressive performance from Manchester City, the victory was deserved and all efforts for the signings did pay off even though they were later subbed out.

Right now Manchester City conditions are becoming increasingly worse this season now the match is in the late minutes and yet they're maintaining a 1:1 draw with Chelsea, I think this season is just off for Manchester City and if this match eventually ends in a draw or Chelsea adding an extra goal to winning Manchester City it then means that man City should just forget this season and bench on till next season because at the moment retaining the title I off their hands and the coach should just accept the fact that a change in patten is needed.
Updated: Manchester city added another goal a few minutes ago: now Manchester city 2:1
The game was unpredictable as I said in my previous comment, but if any team will win it is Manchester City because they have some skillful players in the team than Chelsea. And now that they have gotten 2-1, they should defend the goal so if they end with the 2-1 they have won. And if Chelsea mistakenly score another goal then the match will end with draw.
Edited: 3-1. Chelsea is gone based on the time frame that is left in the game.

After a long time we got to see a well-organized gameplay from Manchester City. And Manchester City won against a first-tier team. The match ended 3-1. Manchester City's overall performance was also very good. City was in very bad form. In the last match, City lost 4-2 against PSG. So, beating Chelsea in today's match was a big challenge for City.

Chelsea scored the first goal of the match. And Chelsea played a bit defensively. Even then, Chelsea players were able to make several strong attacks. However, City players dominated the match with 64% ball possession. At the end of the first half, the match was tied 1-1. Haaland scored in the 68th minute of the second half and FOden's goal in the 87th minute ensured a 3-1 victory for Manchester City.
Manchester City showed us the best of their football quality today, holding to their ground and showing the visitors what they are made of. From one goal down, they took the lead and won the match. Chelsea opened the scoreline but couldn't score any other goal after that, instead they lost focus and allowed themselves to be outplayed by City who kept on pressuring their defense till they scored three goals.

City was able to put themselves back in the game before the end of the first half after Joško Gvardiol was able to equalize the goal on the 42nd minutes of the match with a rebound. City wasn't really happy after the early goal deficit, and that kept them on the struggle to equalize the goal and it came through after several opportunities. I hope to see more impressive displays from both teams in the second half.

The match today was a success to Manchester City and they really outperformed Chelsea and got that deserving big win today. They came back all the way from one goal to a victorious three goals win against one goal from Chelsea. Manchester City are now back into the top four of the table and they are now keeping their hope of the top four table alive once again. Chelsea are really disappointing and I don’t know what to say more about them. Whenever they get a chance to top four of the table, they misuse it and now they now see their self back below the the top four of the table.

The match is technically over, there's no way Chelsea is getting anything from this match. Congratulations to Manchester City. They earned the win from an amazing display. Haaland is world class. When he's not scoring, he's creating chances.

Haaland has been booed in the past for not been able to create more chances or score any goals when they were in their poor form. But in this match, we can see the big name Halland once again getting it all right and putting his team on the lead in today’s game. Pep Guardiola is far from being not able to do anything this season for the club, he can still achieve success this season even though it won’t be like he did last season.

Smart is not enough, there must be skills
I guess it is much more entertaining to watch Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest playing this season rather than watching Tottenham and Manchester United struggling to defend against their opponents from scoring goals past them. Even though Nottingham Forest has suffered their biggest loss against Bournemouth today by conceding 5 goals at the final whistle, but Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth are still having a better record as compared to Tottenham and Manchester United in the total number of goals conceded so far for this season.
Although the match was entertaining with many goals for Bournemouth, it was a little upset to see the result where Nottingham forest could not score a goal which in the end the bet had to lose.

I'll get over it because this is all that's at stake.

Well, even though they have a good record, this defeat is like Forest is nothing so I'm a little surprised with the 5-0 result which is a lot out of the ordinary.

If Chelsea had not scored at the beginning of the match, they would have played much more offensively. I wonder if their strategy will be successful, we are entering the last 20 minutes of the match and the match is still a draw. Both teams will take a little more risk, I think we will watch 1 more goal in this match and the match will not end in a draw. but both teams can make mistakes and both teams can score

Edit: They scored with Haaland, Chelsea may have no chance anymore Cheesy
Just after Erling Haaland scored to put Manchester City ahead, Phil Foden added Manchester City's third three minutes before the end of normal time. Chelsea failed to make good use of their chances in the second half ajd because Manchester City were able to equalize before the break, I wasn't expecting Chelsea to get the better of Manchester City tonight. Enzo Maresca's overall performance for Chelsea this season I don't think is an impressive one and his failure to know which players that should be benched I think is another reason Chelsea have lost some points in the league this season. Chelsea current first choice goalkeeper Sanchez isn't playing with enough confidence hence the series of errors that's led to goals so I think Maresca should turn his attention to the second choice goalkeeper

Chelsea are currently losing three goals to one and now it's at extra time. There's no hope for a comeback, Chelsea has often find it difficult to get a win against Manchester City since we recently started declining after our Champions League victory against them in 2021.

Even the current unstable City team are still able to be the better team against us tonight sadly and Haaland do often enjoying getting in the scoresheet against us.

Further edit, Foden has sealed the game. It's now 3. I believe E. Maresca would have to deal more with the fitness of the team and reduce his extremism in playing defensive game, he's even turned Madueke to a false 2. Most Chelsea players aren't smart at all and are looking weak and fatigued. Manchester city players are more full of if energy. Nkunku was a mistake of a substitution today. I would've preferred Guiu honestly.

The match is technically over, there's no way Chelsea is getting anything from this match. Congratulations to Manchester City. They earned the win from an amazing display. Haaland is world class. When he's not scoring, he's creating chances.

2 minutes to go and since I'm really not a fan of another upset in the last minutes,  the last goal sealed the match for me or at least  I guess.



I would concede that I underestimated City a bit but to be honest is not like Chelsea is a beacon of magical football playing either.
Anyhow, congratulations on the ones taking City, at 2.4 or on BTTS or goals, the bets were pretty juicy if you have pushed your luck to the max

I was very surprised by the result of this match. I was not prepared to see such a result at all. I thought Nottingham Forest team was a very strong team. And in the past matches we have seen that Nottingham Forest's defense is very strong. This strong defense was destroyed by Bournemouth players today.

Bournemouth won 5-0 against Nottingham in today's match. Nottingham has not lost any match by such a big margin this season. I have not even seen Bournemouth win by such a big margin. However, there is no doubt that Bournemouth played excellently in this match. And if they can continue this trend, we will see Bournemouth team in the top 5 of the points table.

It was very difficult for me to accept the result of this match. At the end of the first half, Bournemouth was leading 1-0. Both teams played very well in the first half and the match was very competitive. I thought that in the second half we would see a comeback from Nottingham Forest and the match would either be a draw or a win for Nottingham Forest. But my thoughts were completely proven wrong by Bournemouth players.

An interesting thing is that Bournemouth players had a total of 16 shots in this match and 10 of them were on target. The attacks made by Bournemouth players were very sharp and powerful. That is why Nottingham Forest's defense completely collapsed in the second half.

I love as Liverpool are back to scoring many goals. It shows they are back to their top form. I just felt a little bad that Ipswich even got a goal because Liverpool deserve clean sheet in that match.

City are in crisis now and I think Chelsea will take advantage of that. Manchester City defender made a mistake in the 3rd minute of the game and Madueke punished Manchester City and put Chelsea ahead. Chelsea lead 1-0 and Chelsea have been playing confidently in recent games, after beating Wolverhampton and drawing with Bournemouth and I think that such a quick goal gave Chesley's players confidence.
Manchester City after the defeat to PSG can not yet fully recover from the crisis and before the meeting with PSG it seemed that the former Manchester City, again returned, but apparently it is too early to talk about the exit of the team from the crisis.
City was able to put themselves back in the game before the end of the first half after Joško Gvardiol was able to equalize the goal on the 42nd minutes of the match with a rebound. City wasn't really happy after the early goal deficit, and that kept them on the struggle to equalize the goal and it came through after several opportunities. I hope to see more impressive displays from both teams in the second half.
I am impressed with the performance of Manchester City in this match, as they did not give up but kept fighting very hard to remain in the game. If they continue the pressure they are putting, they can even win the match. I think the new faces added to the squad are already showing what stuff they are made of and with time their will be completely integrated into the team and that will be a problem to any team they meet.
