Yes, I admit that Brentford's performance in yesterday's match was extraordinary, even though he didn't completely control the ball, he was able to master the strategy well by taking advantage of Luton's weak defense. I saw that almost all of the opportunities that Brentford created were accurate and finished off Luton with a fairly large score, Brian Mbeumo helped create opportunities with 2 assists, this is what made Brentford successful in scoring an amazing score and humiliating Luton who were competing at home.

It does seem that Bretford are very eager to get away from the relegation zone. The difference in points with the relegation team is currently 10 points from Luton so I think with 4 games left they only need to win 1 game and that will make them really safe from the relegation zone, although I don't expect that either. Brentford lost 3 matches even though only 1 match was safe, at least he will continue to perform like this in the future.

I doubt that Tottenham can be an obstacle to Manchester City because Tottenham themselves have to undergo a tough match before meeting Manchester City. Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool are tough matches for Tottenham to play.
It is possible that these big teams can be beaten if you assess Spurs' motivation to finish in the top four in order to get a ticket to the Champions League which they still have a chance to achieve.

Depending on other teams to achieve your own desires is not fun at all.
The focus on winning the Premier League title will be increasingly visible because Manchester City have just confirmed themselves in the FA Cup final after beating Chelsea.

there are only 4 matches left for Luton to take advantage of this opportunity and I see that the team they will face is not a strong team from the EPL but it all depends on Luton whether they are able to achieve a win or a draw to face Wolves, West Ham, Everton and Fulham.
If between the remaining 4 matches, Luton is able to get at least 2 wins, there is still hope, but it still all depends on how the results of each match will be for Notthingham, who will face a more difficult team than Luton.
when Notthingham failed to get points against Man City or Chelsea and Luton managed to get 2 wins, it seemed like Luton hopes were still very high.

Relegation zone is dangerous and many struggling teams and managers are doing their best to prevent such circumstances. Luton Town are going back to the Championship at the end of the 2023/2024 season. Luton Town have a terrible stats in the EPL this season, 6W 7D 21L which is absolutely no good news for the team and the supporters. Luton coach, Rob Edwards will scout for exploring moves if he's desperate to fixed his team's weakness in the last days.

It makes sense to bet on city now to win PL trophy. Even though the outright odds for city was not as good as when it was on the third place but im feeling city is winning the competition. The bad thing is now guardiola will leave from the club at the end of season which is also forcing the club to get a new coach to handle the club.
Totenham is the only strongl fixture on city's upcoming fixtures. Yet again totenham has so many weakness and im not seeing it as a big obstacles for manchester city right now. Club is still doing it very good till this time.

It needs only to be even more consistent than before. PL trophy will be on city's hand once again for 4 times in a row. It's amazing since pep is gonna create a new record in the premier league.
I can't wait shit to happen with arsenal and liverpool once again. Im hoping these clubs get same result as the previous games.

Another painful defeat for luton caused by the club is now losing three points again. The chance to leave from being relegated is just getting even smaller for luton this time. It's a common result for brentford caused by this club is far better in all of the aspects against luton. That's the reason why luton being defeated easily by brentford at this time.
Luton's match is just getting less and i see how luton is probably relegating to the lower division again. It's failed to defend its position even though there are several matches awaiting luton. It's saddened me to see luton may be relegated back again along with SHU and Burnley.

Of the six matches that Manchester City have not played, only Tottenham has the potential to hinder Manchester City victory in these six matches. After being eliminated from the Champions League, Manchester City will focus more on the EPL because they still have the opportunity to win the trophy. Guardiola will certainly direct the players to always perform optimally and make every match a final to increase the players' motivation to win the match. The chances of Arsenal and Liverpool winning the EPL trophy depend on the results achieved by Manchester City, both clubs also need to win in all the remaining matches in order to maintain their chances of winning the title.

There must be something sacrificed in order to receive a good return and this is how life works today and luton's coach was obviously gambling with it. Luton has previously played defensively started from the early to the mid season but is now switching to an entirely offensive strategy considering they must get points in order to survive on EPL for the next season. Things have changed a lot since Luton was always showing good gameplay, but they are extremely weak on defense which is normal caused by the club was focusing on how to score instead of how to defense but this is giving very big disadvantage for the clbu when it was facing the big club.
Things are also moving quickly for Luton because they now have a very slim chance of getting into the safe zone. If you were Luton's coach, you would be confused about your club since you can use various strategy but the qualify of players didn't even support it. The main issue here is due to your team's performance scuased by they have very bad quality and your plan may not be going so well. I'm thinking that if you can't do much when you only have low-quality players, like those owned by Luton.


True but it's hard to imagine it. Luton has done it before and they keep failed. This is why rob edwards were changing the strategy used by the club to be fully offensive with the hope they can easily get three points but it's all wrong since luton didn't have quality players on its squad.
Why always coach? why don't you blame the fuckin players as well? the players are the key to determine the result got by the club. It's like what you have said before.
Coach was always be blamed but to be fair if players shall be blamed as well. think about that.

Understand what he says, but remember that City lost to Madrid, and good today because they beat Chelsea in the FA Cup and this can be something significant for them, but the PL is very much in touch, that is, now City can't falter and No matter how strong the players are, they may feel a little tired. I think the game that bothered them the most was the UCL, where they Basically played the 90+ offs, then the extra time and then the suffering of the penalties, more than anything, all that is tiring and can produce many more things so that they feel a bit tired , then in the face of these things you can say that yes, they can lose, and in fact it is probable, the wear and tear Playing Soccer is strong and the rest time between games and games I consider that the body does not Recover enough.

Besides that Luton coach's fault, I think another reason why Luton lost at their home because Brentford's performance was perfect, their player had been very dominant since the 1st half, even Ivan Toney absent but Brian Mbeumo is appeared very brilliant and be the key to big wins Brentford today. So I think their enthusiasm to far away from degradation zone is success today, they create 10 points different from degradation zone, Luton and and I think it's quite safe even there are still 4 matches left, but when their performance the same as today, I think they don't have problem to beat everton, fulham, Bournemouth and newcastle.

Liverpool and Arsenal hope of winning the EPL this season is entirely dependent on City dropping points in any of their last 6 premier league games and I don't see that happening because City are back in their winning streak period that happens towards the end of the season. I expect City to win their remaining matches of the season. From their remaining fixtures, the only hurdle is going to be Tottenham and there's no telling that Tottenham might be a hurdle to both Arsenal and Liverpool as well.

Despite the surprising results of last weekend in the English Premier League that saw Manchester City climb to the top of the league standings, the battle for who wins the English Premier League title is still far from over. Arsenal who were beaten by Aston Villa in the league last weekend before suffering a 1:0 loss away at Bayern Munich in the midweek which resulted to their elimination from the UEFA Champions League competition were able to deliver a good performance today at Wolves to return back to the summit of the league table.
Liverpool travel to Fulham tomorrow for their own league game of the weekend and from all indications, I think Jurgen Klopp's men are very likely to win the game and go past Pep Guardiola's Manchester City who wouldn't be playing a league game this weekend. If Liverpool win, they'll have the same number of points with Arsenal but will stay in the second position because of their inferior goal difference behind the Gunners

From Luton's performance today, I think that the most obvious mistakes were in the formation and weak defense which gave Brentford players a lot of opportunities.
Another mistake was Luton's coach, Rob Edwards, who failed to provide a strategy which for me was very ridiculous when I saw Luton's appearance as if they wanted to continue chasing to score but didn't see the defense line which was having difficulty holding back attacks.
Rob Edwards should have used a formation focused on defense to at least get 1 point.
I actually don't want to blame anyone, but in reality this is really the fault of the coach who should have thought it wiser to prioritize a draw rather than losing points when there are only 4 games remaining.

Yes, Manchester city’s match will become an outstanding match because of the FA Cup they played today against Chelsea. Now Arsenal after winning their match against Wolves is now on top of the Premier League table, while Liverpool will be playing against Fulham tomorrow away from home, if Liverpool win their match tomorrow, they will be behind Arsenal with goal diff and above Manchester City before Man City will play their matches to get back to their position if they win the matches.

If Liverpool can win their next match, then they will be ahead of Manchester city, Manchester city will be dropping to third position, but it’s just temporary, Manchester City won’t be playing this weekend due to the FA cup match which they played today, so they will be having one outstanding match to play, so if they can win the match, then Manchester City will be bouncing back to first position, so if Liverpool and Arsenal are taking over first position from Manchester city, that doesn’t mean anything.

Not only that but Arsenal just scored 0-2 in the last minute of the additional time.In this game it is clear from the stats and I also watched the game that Arsenal was fully focused here as they now are in the final stage of the Premier League and their only duty is to win all games while hoping that their rivals make a false step in their games,having a game before your rivals when you manage to win it is great for you from the psychological level as you are motivated to continue and do much better in the remaining games.I want to see the Liverpool team which was devastated by Atalanta in an unexpected elimination from Europa League,also Manchester City being eliminated from Champions League with clamorous errors during their penalty shootout there against Real Madrid.

With the remaining time, it looks like Arsenal can win this match even with a narrow score, but that doesn't matter because the most important thing is that they can get 3 points from this match to keep their hopes of staying in the competition.

Entering extra time, Arsenal had to focus on their game because if they didn't focus then maybe Wolves would be able to use it to score goals in the remaining time. It should be remembered that this time is a very vulnerable time for a team to experience a decline in concentration. Arsenal must remain alert to them until the final whistle sounds to signal the end of the match.

If you mean getting ahead of Man City pending when Man City plays their outstanding match then you are right but if you are saying being at the top of the league they were alternating in the past, then it won't be easy for them. Man City have the great record of managing their gains better than Arsenal or Liverpool so they will not misuse the opportunity they have to top the league now that there are few matches to the end of the season.

I did not even see anything spectacular Arsenal is playing tonight against Wolves even though they are leading by one goal to nil. If Wolves convert any of their chances, that will be a draw because Arsenal do not seem to be willing to score another goal. Arsenal's win tonight will make them temporarily top the league, at least let them have a feel of what it means to be at the top of the league.

Luton match has ended and yes it ended in a big loss as they weren’t able to get lore than a goal from that match. This match once again shows how much this Luton defense is poor as they’re always know to be conceding over 3 goals.

 ⁠I think with the way they are conceding they might not be able to still remain in the top flight but par adventure they still remain, I think the coach needs to quickly fix up his defense line because the EPL doesn’t need you conceding so much like that. If you keep conceding you keep the attackers under much pressure to be able to score for the team to cancel out on goals conceded.

 Burnley winning Sheffield, I’m not surprised because in over 60 years, this Sheffield team has been the worst team whilst playing at home in the EPL. Burnley seems more balanced than this Sheffield side and as such, I’m not expecting something different from the scoreline.

 At the relegation zone, I think if Burnley can keep up this energy when they play United next then we could see some interesting competition at the bottom of the table but for now, I think the 3 clubs that came from relegation should please return. The EPL is interesting in the top half of the table as we have a mild bate in the bottom half.

The first half has been left behind in the Wolves - Arsenal game. Arsenal have dominated it and they are 1-0 ahead. If they don't get complacent in the 2nd half there shouldn't be any problem on winning this one.

After that horrible performance against Aston Villa, Arsenal really need the win here you know.    Tough fixtures are going to be waiting for them after completing this game successfully.

First they are hosting Chelsea next Tuesday and 5 days after there is an away game against Tottenham. Collecting 6 points from these ones are really crucial for them if they want to maintain their determination for the PL championship.
