with Manchester City's performance which I think is always optimistic, I think they can overcome all the teams that will face them, including Tottenham who you said will be a problem for them, I'm sure Manchester City can overcome it well even though it won't be so easy. The luck is with Manchester City because Arsenal and Liverpool, who lost their last match, can still keep Manchester City safe in their ranking.

With their point difference which can be said to be thin, there is a possibility that Manchester City could be shifted from the rankings but I think with their remaining matches they will be able to overcome the teams that will face them. because I think currently Manchester City is performing quite well.

Manchester City is exceptional and the way we operate is different from the way other cubs operate and that is why we are different, and despite everything, we still went back to the top and arsenal playing against wolves might just be another arsenal failure. From what arsenal and Liverpool are playing shows that they don’t have the intention of winning the title. And if you look at those club currently no one is showing interest in winning the premier league and that is why am sure of our winning. Tottenham as gotten soft so they won’t be a problem. Even if arsenal wins today’s game nothing will change.

With their performance, one can conclude that they can overcome all their matches by winning them all, but in reality and as far as football is concerned, it’s possible but they can as well lose some or draw some of the matches and the matches might be a match one lost expected.

You are right, football cannot be easily predicted and even with an easy fixture it is not guaranteed that they will win all their remaining games. We have seen big teams lose to relegation sone teams towards the end of the season because this is the period they desperately need points to survive and escape relegation so football can happen and we might see a dramatic match.

On the one hand, their failure to advance from the Champions League to the semifinals had a positive impact on the Premier League and FA Cup.

As they are eliminated in the champions league they can now fully focus on the premier league title and also the FA cup so they don’t end the season without winning a trophy. But then same thing happened to Liverpool and Arsenal and now the three teams can now focus fully on their league games which will now make the race more intense.

Then you shall be ready by seeing your club probably trophyless again this season. Im thiking manchester city has taken the key to win the PL trophy. Arsenal and liverpool can only play for city to miss some points that will help arsenal or liverpool take the first place again soon.
You shall prepare yourself for the reality if your favorite club will not even get a single trophy this season. Having good gameplay doesn't matter if you can't even win it.

Manchester City miss out point? During the end of the season? I don't think so. When once they get the opportunity they like to maximize it, if you watched their last match with real Madrid you'll observe that they it it their best shot, Madrid could have been the one not to qualify but luck was on their side that day, joined with their good defensive strategy. So with the performance man city put in play there, I don't think they'll be dropping any point. Besides they have less serious match to play, the teams they'll be playing till the end of the season are not in good form this season except Tottenham. They might also win the FA cup that is if they are able to beat Chelsea, because Chelsea has been a tough opponent for them to win in their last 2 H2H games.

Liverpool elimination from the European League means the 3 top teams can focus on the EPL alone to fight for 1 trophy. And that will definitely make the competition even tighter so as not to lose any more points in the remaining matches they have. With no schedule outside the EPL, coaches are increasingly required to work harder because only the EPL trophy is still open for grabs and like it or not the players have to use all their abilities and energy. Both Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool have to move on from their bad results, although personally I am disappointed that there are no more Premier League representatives in the UCL and Europa League. Regarding the FA Cup, it depends on Man City whether they will be serious about getting it or just the EPL or both it depends on them.

Man City who were just eliminated from the Ucl will continue in their bid for the FA Cup this weekend against Chelsea. Yes they are seen as the better team in that encounter but surprisingly Chelsea too shouldn’t be underrated as probably they could be coming to increase the woes for the Citizens after their Ucl elimination.

A proper mentality is needed because these are the only 2 trophies left for them and dwelling on the elimination from the ucl might not be good for them rather, they’ve got to try to focus on these two cups. In the epl they’ll face Spurs who’re in a bid to get back to Top 4. This means more work after the game with Chelsea, you now understand why they need a strong mentality.

⁠Liverpool too got eliminated from the Europa league which brings them to focus more on the EPL and sane with Arsenal though but the fear is with 6 games to go, will a team still slip up. Yes, City could probably slip, Arsenal too has higher chances of slipping up also.

⁠Well the proper mentality is needed from anyteam who wants to win the league but for City who’ll be out for the FAC Cup, yes I’m sure they will want to get back from the UCL Elimination and bounce back stronger but they should wait because Chelsea could give a huge surprise.

Yes, it is great opportunity for Manchester city to focus more on FA and premier league, when Manchester city was still in champion league competition they hardly use their full squad but now, I believe they will like to use their full squad now. As Manchester city is out of champions league they will like to win premier league trophy and FA.

Not Manchester City alone is as opportune but also Arsenal and Liverpool because they are all finally out of the Champions league which had kept them occupied all this while. I will always choose Arsenal over Liverpool and Manchester City because they have some of my favorite players in the Premier league.

In Arsenal, coolest guys are Bukayo Saka, Trossard, Martinelli and Jesus Gabriel. I want all of them to be allowed to play on their subsequent matches so they can continue to make us proud of their wonderful performances individually and as a team.

Keep praying for your team caused by they are now under pressuer. This is what i have called that as snowball effect that happened to your favorite team and liverpool. They are starting to bottle jobs any game.
It means they missed opportunity to win the trophy. arsenal or liverpool have ever lead the competition. it's time for city to take the trophy.

However, I still believe that Liverpool can become champions this season. I prefer Liverpool playing style to Arsenal and all because I idolize Salah. However, Manchester City is still in control as a team that has the opportunity to win the title again this season. Manchester City has a squad complete with star players and they always appear fierce in the remaining matches at the end of the season.

Liverpool is declining performance in the last few games. Lost to Crystal Palace and Atalanta at home is the low of the lowest Liverpool have shown. I think it started from the draw result against Manchester United. Their display isn't effective anymore, and they found it hard to build attacks under the press of the opponents. If the way they play doesn't change immediately, I wont surprise if they would be fighting to finish top four.

Manchester city have been so stable, their consistency is convincing with the rotating players doesnt affect their gameplay and effectiveness. They have every condition to be the most favorite to win the league. On the other hand, Arsenal is having setback with the lost to Aston Villa at home. Arsenal's fixtures are also toughest among the three contenders, because the have to play against 3 historical rivals. All objective situations show that Manchester City have a big chance to be the champion of English Premier League this season.

This is the UEFA Champions League, elite teams are knockout due to their incompetent actions in matches and Manchester City falls to be another victim. Carlo Ancelotti shown the world he's the best and having an edge over Pep Guardiola who's the master planner for the success and limelight for Manchester City. Pep Guardiola and the rest of his squad are not happy after facing a fierce opponent, Real Madrid in the quarter final and got eliminated with penalty shootout. Manchester City will focused on the FA Cup where they meets Chelsea this weekend and also concentrate on the English Premier League.

In the Premier League, Arsenal toughness will be tested again this season, where last season Arsenal lost a lot of points in the remainder of the season and can they improve their performance in the remaining matches this season. Indeed, Arsenal is very strong in the Premier League because they are able to compete strongly at the top of the standings until week 32. Tomorrow Arsenal will visit Wolves' home ground and in this match, will Arteta be able to bring Arsenal back to victory? In terms of quality, of course Arsenal is stronger compared to Wolves, but Arsenal lost their best moment in the previous match when they faced Bayern Munich, so this of course will have a big influence on their performance in the Premier League.

However, I still believe that Liverpool can become champions this season. I prefer Liverpool playing style to Arsenal and all because I idolize Salah. However, Manchester City is still in control as a team that has the opportunity to win the title again this season.

Anything can happen especially in their match against Tottenham; and there is a possibility of losing any match among the remaining matches because injuries can also affect players fitness and sometimes fatigu.

I am still seeing this title race as a competitive one because I am confident that Arsenal can go up there again because they have good squad depth that are of advantage if the manger could have done well.

I don't think it will be that easy for Manchester City just as you are saying it, as their Manchester City is not longer in champion league same thing applicable to other to teams that are fighting for this season premier league trophy.if Manchester city will fully focus on premier league as they are out of champion league arsenal and Liverpool will also have chances of focus fully on premier league, but as Manchester City is the team that the top of the table is show that they have more chances of winning the Premier League that arsenal and Liverpool.

Yes of course, every manager would be disappointed after being knocked out of a major competition like the CL, but when it comes to penalty shootout it's all about luck. They did their best but luck was on Real Madrid's side and the Los Blancos scaled through. Pep's hope of winning a treble this time around has been dashed to the ground, but he still has the EPL and FA cup to fight for. He should give them his best shot cuz It'd be too bad to go trophy less after being tip to win each of these competitions.

I don't believe that penalty shootouts are completely about luck. Because some goalkeepers are really good at reading at which corner a player will shoot.

In the same way penalty masters mostly make difference also.

Lunin was very impressive with his saves. Did you see Rüdiger's help for Lunin on Kovacic's penalty too? Grin

These nice details really make big difference during penalty shootouts. Manchester City were just not good enough.

Guardiola missed a big opportunity surely. I was seeing like the winner of that matchup would lift the CL trophy also and now it will most probably be Real Madrid doing it. Anyways, Guardiola had better focus on securing the PL and FA Cup trophies as of now.

Yeah Manchester City doesn’t play in champions league again, and if you can check the matches left for Manchester City to play, then those matches shouldn’t be difficult for them, the only match which I think might end up giving Manchester City difficult moment this season is Tottenham, and am not really satisfied with Tottenham performance lately, so Manchester city should be able to win them also, Manchester City already missed the champions league this season, they won’t want to lose the premier league again.

Manchester will have to focus on both premier league and FA cup, let’s see how Manchester City will play in their next FA cup match against Chelsea, the match is not going to be a easy one because we all know Chelsea to be a inconsistent team this season, but they are always playing well when playing against strong clubs, and we all can see how Manchester city are playing well this season, the match won’t be easy.

I think we need to see what each of these top 3 big buys outcome will be tomorrow. If Manchester City win their match, I think they still have high chance of becoming the Champions with 5 more games to go but you see Arsenal and Liverpool, if any of them lose their tomorrow match, then their journey for the battleship of the league title will come to an end because Manchester City will be given them 5 extra point difference which will be very difficult to cover.

There is possibility but only if Manchester City fuck up their next game and we both know that team wouldn't allow such to happen, they wouldn't not after losing Champions League, they will bag the remaining FA cup and Premier League to ease their disappointment on Real Madrid but if football happen, then Liverpool and Arsenal might have a chance but it's low chance for them honestly.

Pep Guardiola deserved to be disappointed with the final result of the match because two of his mainstay players actually failed to execute penalties. Kovacic and Bernardo Silva failed to convert their chances into goals, which is the reason why Manchester City failed to qualify for the semi-finals this season. Real Madrid are lucky, it is a good sign for them this season.

Yes of course, every manager would be disappointed after being knocked out of a major competition like the CL, but when it comes to penalty shootout it's all about luck.

I think Man City still has a big chance of winning the Premier League and FA Cup trophies but that can only happen if they play with all their might, and they did not dwell on their defeat in the Champions League. In the Premier League, the opponent who might be able to trouble them is Tottenham Hotspur and it was an away match for Man City. Meanwhile, in the FA Cup, Man City will face quite a tough obstacle because in the semifinals they have to play against Chelsea, and if they win, they will most likely meet Man United in the final.

If you look at their opponents in the remaining games in the league and FA cup I think City have a big chance of winning both. Tottenham could be a problem for them but I think City can handle it. Actually, all three teams still have the same chance. Even one defeat could shift City's position. But the problem is that Arsenal and Liverpool performed poorly in their last matches. This means that even if City loses to Tottenham, Arsenal and Liverpool are not teams that are expected to win all their remaining matches, if you look at their recent performance.

Liverpool elimination from the European League means the 3 top teams can focus on the EPL alone to fight for 1 trophy. And that will definitely make the competition even tighter so as not to lose any more points in the remaining matches they have. With no schedule outside the EPL, coaches are increasingly required to work harder because only the EPL trophy is still open for grabs and like it or not the players have to use all their abilities and energy. Both Man City, Arsenal and Liverpool have to move on from their bad results, although personally I am disappointed that there are no more Premier League representatives in the UCL and Europa League. Regarding the FA Cup, it depends on Man City whether they will be serious about getting it or just the EPL or both it depends on them.

This season City have not been able to beat Chelsea. This shows that Chelsea can play solidly when they meet City. They even tied with a score of 4-4. But I don't think it can be used as a reference for the FA cup semi-final match.

City came with the motivation to win 2 championship titles. After being eliminated from the UCL, I'm sure City will have more motivation to win the FA Cup. They also don't have a busy schedule and Pep can rotate players by fielding their best squad. Although Chelsea has good statistics in the last two H2H results matches but City can beat Chelsea in some matches before that.

City do not have any difficult games in their remaining league games except Tottenham. So they can really go all out for the match against Chelsea.

It wasn't even about the beating side of it, Chelsea between these two fixtures played better than Manchester City, we don't need stress too much on this topic, you can go see for yourself. The second leg was even interesting as they went ahead to frustrate Erling Haaland during the game. Thanks to Rodri with his goal to salvage a point.

Pep Guardiola bragged about winning the treble again this season, he never said nothing about winning two Championships, it has always been three.
Chelsea with enough rest and Manchester City with tired legs after drawing the gake against Real Madrid. My opinion is that, The game would end in a full time draw and Manchester City would be knocked out of the Fa Cup Competition.

Brighton is also a tough side and Manchester City would be playing away from home. These underdogs would even cause more chaotic experience than we can imagine.

Manchester City have temporarily secured the top position of the Premier League table and after being eliminated from the Champions League of course now every remaining competition will be very valuable for them including the FA, in prestige of course the FA Cup is not comparable to the EPL trophy but still they will target to end the season with the remaining two trophies, Chelsea did manage to hold Manchester City to a draw in two games this season, but for the semi-finals later, of course, I doubt Chelsea will be able to win, because indeed the semi-final match will Manchester City field their main squad besides that, isn't the semi-final match a must-win match for both teams?

Manchester City performance was extraordinary when holding Madrid to a draw, although in the end they lost but I think it will be very difficult for Chelsea to face Manchester City if Manchester City play like against Madrid yesterday, different from Manchester City, of course you can see if Chelsea's current performance is unstable in the game in the league so I think it is very risky for us to want to bet on Chelsea's victory at this time.

You are right, even though Manchester City leads the standings with a gap of 2 points from Liverpool and Arsenal, basically they are not completely safe. Arsenal and Liverpool can take advantage of any mistakes made by Manchester City in the next 6 matches, but of course Arsenal and Liverpool must consistently win in every match. The competition will still continue and everything will be determined in the next 6 matches, but if Arsenal and Liverpool lose points again then it will be difficult to expect Manchester City to give up their chance to secure the title.

Manchester City will fully try to secure its title in the Premier League this season after they failed in the Champions League. The Premier League is one of two titles they can still secure at the end of the season, the other being the FA Cup.
