there are teams in other leagues that are very consistent with winning, and even Manchester City have not been doing badly in winning the premier league, and even with their winning they have also lost games, but the moment they lose one they score two more. arsenal and Liverpool are also showing consistency and Manchester United coming back to life, can not say anything for now because we all know exactly how they have been struggling in terms of performance. ten hag is doing is best because he knows that he as to do everything possible because is job is on the line the moment he does not meet up then the management might consider changing him, and that is one of the reasons putting all the efforts he can because there is a lot of work for him to do to revival that club.


we are up to the challenge of defeating Manchester City because that is the only person I see standing in our way and it is not as if they are standing in our way specifically because what affected our performance last season was the moment we lost to Aston Villa and now we were able to get our revenge against them, but it is now upon us to make a different this season because i have been challenging a lot of Manchester city fans, this season have to be the season because we can not loose and hand them over the trophy any more enough is enough and we can not continue living under their shadow always.

when I look at his age and time space he still has to spend on the football space it gives me some feelings that he would probably be the Goat, because he's roving it already.

What has taking some people over 20 to 30 matches to achieve a hat-trick he did it all in a very few games, I couldn't agree more that his the greatest sign that has been made for a long time now. I can't compare him to another striker in the PL because his doing great works in the football space, I guess I would love to hear him speak on a podcast about how he built himself to this extent because it's worth celebrating.

He is a very special CF. If he didn't have a release clause probably Manchester City was going to pay him much more than only 60 million euros. But would he be worth it? Considering his performances so far yeah, absolutely! 

Teams are spending insane amount of money on some players but still not getting any proper result for example. Haaland must be the most profitable signing ever in the recent years that's for sure.    Reaching 8 hat-tricks in only 69 games is unreal. Football is evolving of course which is also helping much more skilled players to be grown. But if Haaland goes on like that he is going to have such a huge record which will be really difficult to be broken.

Haaland became the first player to score a hattrick in his first three Premier League games, the three goals he scored against West Ham made him the first player to score seven goals in his first three games of the season. If he continues to maintain his performance and other players support him in increasing his goal productivity, he will very easily break the Hattrick record once set by Robbie Fowler and he only needs three more Hattricks to equal the record once set by Sergio Aguero.

Manchester City good start proves that they are still the strongest team in the EPL, it will be very difficult for other teams to compete with Manchester City if their performance continues like this. Haaland increasing sharpness will make Manchester City increasingly difficult to stop, Guardiola only needs to maintain the defensive area so that opposing players have difficulty scoring goals.

It will be very difficult for other teams to stop Manchester City if they continue to play like this, their game has improved a lot compared to last season. Arsenal and Liverpool will have to fight hard if they want to compete with Manchester City for the title, while Manchester United and Chelsea have yet to come close to matching Manchester City current form.

Haaland's composure is not something other strikers can learn. It is still hard to believe how he made each finish look so easy. And back-to-back hat tricks have proven it; he is the best striker ever to play in the Premier League. He is showing great touch and linking up even better with his team compared to last season.

Haaland is also recording 70 goals in 69 games. If he keeps scoring at this rate, he could hit 40 goals or more this season.

There's no a better striker than Haaland in PL. Let's make this ez trophy to win City.

In the Champions League? With the new format, it's quite possible, but it will take Haaland many years to reach Ronaldo's results in the playoffs. He started this season off great, but I think it's clear that he won't be able to play like this the whole season, and the most important thing is how he will perform in the big games, which remains the main point of his critics.

This has literally been the major worry everyone has ever had for Arsenal, they basically do not have a direct replacement for Declan rice and the newly signed midfielder Mikel Merino is also out for weeks due to injury, now the only two combinations left is the Thomas Partey and Joginho pairing which right from the paper is something that doesn’t look good. I could remember when Manchester city had to suffer a bit when they lost Rodri them and also how Manchester United missed Casemiro everytime he gets sent off and receives a match ban, the main engine house In a team is the defensive midfielder so when the position loss a player or the losses form it becomes a thing of worry for the club. Although the card was a bit hash but the player should have held his emotions then.

It was a great game overall but this Brighton side under their new young coach are definitely playing good football. The players are excellent but Joao Pedro has actually caught my attention more, he has scored against both Manchester United and Arsenal but that’s not it his overall game playing pattern is what intrigues me about him. If he gets more goals this season then he might be set to go to much bigger club.

When Erling Haaland scored Manchester City's second goal of their game against West Ham today by perfectly controlling Rico Lewis pass before unleashing that deadly strike, I told the person that was watching the game with me that nothing is gonna stop him from getting a third goal to complete his hattrick in that game. Judging by the number of goals he's recorded already, I think Erling Haaland might surpass his goal scoring record in the EPL in his first season at Manchester City.
Manchester City looks unstoppable at the moment and is likely to win the English Premier League title for the fifth consecutive time this season.

Our doubts about Ten Hag still make sense because no matter what he shows despite the trophies he always gets in his 2 seasons with Manchester United but he does not have a good capability to be able to focus and compete in the championship race because his consistency problem is always disturbed which makes it a little complicated for Ten Hag in the end.

The coaching method provided by Ten Hag is also still at the standard for a big coach especially when juxtaposed with some big coaches in the EPL which makes Ten Hag's situation a little less convincing for us football lovers.

Tomorrow they will face a big match where Liverpool are ready to come to Old Trafford with a new situation for their coach but the performance is still as good as before. This is a big challenge and could be difficult for Manchester United to pass this season in this week's match.

Haaland is a great striker, and he keeps doing his job perfectly. In just three matches played, Haaland has recorded three goals, which is a very impressive performance. It will not be a surprise if Haaland keeps breaking records in the Premier League. As the season progresses, with how Haaland has started scoring goals, it will be hard for any other striker or player to challenge him for the Golden Boot. If Haaland does not get injured, it will likely be another great record in the Premier League this season.


Manchester City always have a good game, unless luck is not on their side. On days when luck isn't with them, they find it difficult to win. It would be unfair for any team to have a squad like Manchester City’s and not win games. Currently, with the squad Manchester City has, I don't think any other club in the Premier League can match them, which is why they consistently have the opportunity to win the league. Now that they've taken first place on the table, it will be very hard for any other team to knock them off. I was looking up to Arsenal to be a strong contender against Manchester City, but with how they’re playing recently, I don't think they can compete for the trophy.Their current style seems defensive, which I don't think will allow them to challenge Manchester City effectively.

Premier league is getting to the predicted standings just as teams completes their third matches. The top 3 in last season Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool already in top 4. Both Man City and Liverpool with full points while Arsenal sharing one with Brighton. Brighton indeed was better than Arsenal on most stats. With large number of goals from Haaland, Manchester City looking much tougher to compete than on last season. The possibility of some sort of punishment due to the pending charges would haunt the team whole season and could be the only chance for other team to take the title from Manchester City this season.

Erling Haaland returned to the craze like in the previous season, I was quite impressed with him after some time he had difficulty getting goals, but it seemed like he had returned to being a goal-scoring robot for Manchester City.

From 3 matches that have been played to get 7 goals, it is very extraordinary.


The match against West Ham United was really very good, West could not move much and the goal he got was also an own goal by Ruben Dias, from the statistics of the Man City Domination match above the sky.

From all indications, Haaland will do it again this season, and for him to have scored seven goals in their first three matches, he can brake another goal scoring record in the premier league because scoring seven goals in three matches is very impressive and I don’t think any other striker in the Premier League can do that now.

Manchester City have started to dominate the Premier League again this season, they have high number in f goals more than any other team in the league, and their top rivals Arsenal just drop some points today due to red card that wasn’t supposed to be given.

Arsenal, Liverpool, and Chelsea/Manchester United can be the only team to give Manchester City some tough challenges, but aside from them, I don’t think they can be stopped from winning the EPL again this season.

I am an Arsenal fan, I know what we can do, but for us to end up without a reliable striker, winning the EPL will be hard for us because had it been we have a reliable striker, we could have won our match today.

To be frank I literally spoke of Arsenal winning ignoring the worst case scenario of Declan Rice getting a red card. I guessed if it was another player it would have been easier for Arsenal to continue to fight gor a win against Brighton but since I doubt they really have one who cab feel the role of Rice well then this situation won't be this tight for them.

Brighton has been doing well this season and this was their third match, after facing Everton and Manchester united and getting win for both shows how well they have been doing  this season even during pre season

Haaland have been performing exceptionally well this season, scoring two hat tricks in three matches played is really a good one for him, he has been scoring in all the matches that they have played, just three matches played, and he already has seven goals. Seriously,  I never expected such a good performance from him this season. From the way Haaland has been performing this season, then his performance this season is better than last season.

Today's match was a very good one. Manchester City were able to secure three points in the match, and currently they are in first place, which I know is going to be very difficult for any club to take first place from Manchester City because they will do everything possible to defeat any club they are playing against.

Haaland scored 7 goals in August already. He already has the goal record in one season in the Premier League with 36 goals. Do you think he is going for improving his own record this season?  

It really feels like that to me. I know it is a really difficult job to score multiple goals in a match consistently. Especially in a really busy calendar. But considering Haaland isn't from our world this is quite possible. Manchester City win and Arsenal lose points. That red card finished Arsenal... This doesn't feel good as I'm one of the people who want Arsenal to win a Premier League trophy. Manchester City are very tough to deal with.

The factor of playing 10 players made Arsenal fail to get three points in this home match because it was very clear, after Declan Rice got a red card that Brighton really took advantage of the situation to dominate the match. So it is not surprising, in the first half Arsenal had high dominance because Arsenal also still played with 11 players in the first half but unfortunately, entering the second half Arsenal had to play with 10 players and Arsenal were no longer able to dominate the match because after all, basically Brighton is also not a weak team.

With this draw, there may be a deep sense of regret that Declan Rice may also experience because with the advantage of the number of players for Brighton, Brighton managed to rise. But even though Arsenal only got one point, for me the result is still good because considering about playing with only 10 players, even though I also lost the bet but I still say Arsenal is still in a good trend.

No team is consistent in winning every game, even Manchester City who won 4 titles in 4 consecutive seasons have lost some games. Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool are 3 teams that are favored by many, but I really want Ten Hag to bring Manchester United into that ranks. It's difficult, I admit that, but Ten Hag and the Manchester United management need to make it happen so they can be the best challengers again.

It would be absurd to leave Manchester City without a real challenge this season. Liverpool and Arsenal certainly have promise, but Manchester United have not looked convincing. I hope Ten Hag does the best he can this season, but sometimes my disappointment with him is greater than my pride.

Haaland's excellent performance helped Manchester City team win an easy away match against West Ham. Manchester City won the match by 3-0. The important thing is that Haaland scored a hat-trick in this match. Haaland scored two goals in the first half and one in the second half. Haaland's presence caught everyone's attention in the entire match.

West Ham were not a weak opponent for City. West Ham team is strong enough and the match was also West Ham's home match. However, City players managed to dominate this match. Apart from Haaland, Grealish, DeBruyne, Bernardo, Lewis and Guardiol also performed very well in this match. Haaland scored a hat trick in two consecutive matches. This star player of Manchester City is in excellent form. If Haaland can maintain such form, it will not be a difficult task for City to dominate the Premier League. City will play a home match against Brentford in the next match. City will win easily in this match too.

But I was looking forward to see the performance of Manchester City players against Inter Milan in the Champions League match. This is going to be the toughest match of the season for Manchester City players.

Erling Haaland is coming full circle. There have been goals in every match since the Premier League started. He made Hatrik in both matches this season.
The match played today gave West Ham another three-pointer.
If he continues this in the Champions League, he will be Ballondor's biggest candidate.
Because City are doing great things too. At this rate, he may break Messi and Ronaldo's goalscoring record for the year.
