Dalot is an important player for United and I think he has matured into a fine RB. Yes, he was out of position and Kluivert found some space, ran towards the box and took a well composed shot to find the back of the net, but I wouldn't just fish him out as a scapegoat for United's draw. Collectively, they had a poor game and they're lucky to go home with a point.

It was a bad day for both Liverpool and Arsenal but both team are still in the tittle race and I'm sure Man City will drop points because they're not really at their best.

Why do people still have confidence in Arsenal to win the Premier league this season, they wasted the great opportunity which they have, do you think Manchester city will leave their current position? Am sure city will do everything possible to maintain their current position. Seriously I don’t know how Arsenal will be able to win the premier league tittle this season, it’s just better they focus on how they are going to win Bayern Munich in their next match, because the match won’t also be a easy one for Arsenal, if they can’t win Bayern Munich, then they are out of champions league, and the chances of winning the premier league also is so slim this season. I think what happened to Arsenal last season will be repeating itself this season.

Definitely too soon to celebrate but it really looks like Man City are on their way to win the league for the 4th time in a row. It's not just about the 2 points advantage (which is not a lot) but about the fact they have potentially easier games left to play than Liverpool/Arsenal and, moreover, they are the most consistent in performance.

Aston Villa won with Arsenal fair and square. It was not due to luck. They were a better team in that match. I can't say the same about Crystal Palace though, Liverpool has managed to create plenty of chances but were out of luck in trying to convert them into goals.

But that's the beauty of football, if not for surprises like that, it would be boring.

And whoever Manchester City faces in the Premier League Competition would definitely feel the heat, I don't think they will be losing any game from here.
Would it be four consecutive Premier League Competition win for Pep Guardiola and Manchester City? Both Arsenal and Liverpool lost the game today and it was embarrassing.
One from the player's, while the other one lose with his own personal decisions. Mikel Arteta's starting selection today is totally different from what he has used to win since the start of this season.

I'm just disappointed with Arteta, how come he switched the winning side?

It feels really funny how Guardiola has successfully turned the premier league to yet another farmers league. City's win yesterday might have just set Arsenal and Liverpool up for too much pressure today and they lost it literally. As someone who watched Liverpool and Arsenal painfully lose their matches, its safe to say that City has very much won the league as they appear to be in their title-winning streak. History has taught us that once city get in this mode, they keep it at a 100% record till the end of the season.

Rather than mocking them I'm literally shocked to see these results.    Because I'm one of the people who wants to see a different champion than Manchester City this season. However these results are no help for that. 

I watched both games by the way. First Liverpool missed a lot of chances. I mean especially the second half. The preferences of players while attacking also got poorer every minute and they couldn't find a way out at Anfield...

I thought at least Arsenal would win even though their competitor was tougher. However they also stumbled big time. I didn't like Gabriel at all. This must be his worst performance this season. Aston Villa scored their goals by short intervals that Arsenal couldn't even react. 

What i have seen this day if bunch of people were mocking arsenal and liverpool. The result from this game is hard to accept but this is football when even a weakest team in the league can still beat the strongest team in the league. Just because arsenal and liverpool were strong and they would always be remain unbeatable.

City is now back again to lead the competition. It surprises me how liverpool and arsenal are losing against their opponents together. Many people are fucked today caused by the liverpool and arsenal.

Absolute bullshit games during today,I cannot understand how Arsenal played that badly and people are still saying they can win the title,damn they cannot and will never win it,it is going to win City again but this time not because of their own merit rather because of the real weak games of both Liverpool and Arsenal,that is how you lose a title,it is exactly this game,played without ideas without concentration without anything,it ruined me Liverpool and Arsenal together more than 15 tickets and yet I wonder why I still play Premier League games when it looks like this league is some random 7th division of somewhere else and I have extremely high doubts today that the league can be rigged,yes yes rigged.

English Premier League on the verge of loosing its credibility. Arsenal 0:2 Aston Villa

Early hours of today, I made a post when Liverpool was about loosing it to Crystal Palace and finally it happened. In the race to the English premier League title, I believe Liverpool more than Arsenal. Liverpool refused to win against Crystal palace and now Arsenal cannot win against Aston villa. Now, they have gifted the top 1 status to Manchester city. If this finally happens, England cannot be said to be among the tough leagues again.

Arsenal again have to waste their opportunity to seize the top of the Premier League standings from Manchester City, after Liverpool suffered a defeat today Arsenal also experienced the same thing today, Arsenal's defeat to Aston Villa certainly made them start to lose the chance of winning, indeed the gap of two points is currently the separator between Arsenal and Manchester City but I think it will be very difficult for Arsenal to shift Manchester City's position at the top of the table Because Arsenal still have some strong games in their remaining games this season, while Manchester City may only be held back when facing Tottenham but Arsenal will certainly find it difficult to win games against Manchester United, Chelsea and even Tottenham later.

With today's defeat to Aston Villa, their positive trend of 11 games unbeaten has certainly been shattered today, since Aston Villa was coached by Unai Emery it seems Aston Villa seems to be a nightmare for Arsenal, just like last season Aston Villa this season again became a stumbling block for Arsenal to win the championship trophy.

After reading about your post that described Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez as "ultra inefficient",  and how Manchester City were still able to score five goals in a game they didn't have much impact on, my respect for Pep Guardiola have further increased and I'll tell you why. Last season, Erling Haaland was in the best form of his life as he broke so many goalscoring records in the English Premier League as well as in Europe while Julian Alvarez was also scoring plenty of goals whenever he got the chance to play but this season, both players haven't been as prolific as they were last season but that's not stopped Manchester City from remaining in strong position to retain all the trophies they won last season these two players were scoring lots of goals. In a season were his two strikers aren't scoring as many goals as expected, Manchester City manager has been able to win games that's kept them in strong positions to retain the treble

Despite two ultra-inefficient strikers like Haaland and Alvarez, they score four or five goals every game. If they had a finisher like lewandowski or eto'o in their strikers they would probably see 120 goals this season. Haaland doesn't seem to have any momentum at the moment unfortunately. He was on fire when he first arrived but he can't play. He used to say bring it and I'll score, now he can't do that either. I'm not saying he should be like Messi and Ronaldo, but he has the highest market value with Mbappe. We were saying he can play with De Bruyne, now he can't turn his passes into goals. As I said, we don't expect him to become Messi and Ronaldo, but this drop in performance is not normal. Pep was playing through Halland at the beginning of the season and when he realised he was not going to be the star of this team and that he was no different from other standard players and when he did not base the game on him, productivity increased.

It's pure totenham's fault. So many times totenham fans were against the high defensive line strategy implemented by ange but he keeps so harsh with his decision to force his club to play use that shitty strategy again and again. Totenhan is always struggling against low block club like newcastle.
It's ange's karma. He was so selfish. I hope the result against newcastle will open his eyes.

SHU was the worst club in EPL right now. It's even worst compared to the luton or burnley which are also in the relegation zone too. No doubt that brentford was able winning against SHU easily.

@redsun114,

To be honest, all in the top three, Liverpool Arsenal, and Manchester City are looking really well. Neither of them looks to be losing and I believe all of them have equal chances to win the English Premier League title.

If Arsenal is going to do another trash performance towards the end, I don’t know about that. But it definitely makes me hard to trust Arsenal. This also makes me want to trust Liverpool or Manchester City a little more. I think we are watching it really good competition for the English Premier League title. And from the perspective of a neutral viewer like me, I think if every team continues to perform like this, it is not going to matter too much for people like me about who wins the Premier League title. Personally, I just want to see good football being played.

Liverpool's progress had to be stopped because they were defeated by Crystal Palace at Anfield. This was clearly a mistake that had to be made up for even though Liverpool played with a complete set of players but failed to get full points and give Crystal Palace the full three points in this match. Hopefully, Arsenal won't lose to Aston Villa. , if that happens like last season, Arsenal and Liverpool will return to their poor performance at the end of the season and become inconsistent, the match has started. Arsenal must be able to win against Aston Villa if they want to win the top of the standings again.

But if they fail like Liverpool, of course it will give Manchester City the opportunity to become EPL champions again this season. There are several matches towards the end of the season that Arsenal have to go through. Hopefully they don't fail in maintaining their consistency, which of course Arteta has also prepared himself for. pressing his players to keep Arsenal on the winning track until the end of the season and compete with Manchester City, because Liverpool suffered a defeat so there is still a chance to compete between Arsenal and Manchester City.  

Liverpool lost against Crystal Palace home by 1-0. This is really unbelievable in a time like this. They are in a really close fight with two teams for the league title but they are losing really critical three points on the final weeks. I watched the part from the 70th minute to the end and Liverpool wasted a lot of goal opportunities. 

Especially Curtis Jones wasted an insane opportunity. He knew Salah right beside him to just touch the ball easily to score. But instead he wanted to use it himself and failed. Klopp must be really frustrated to see the desperation of his team in the last minutes.

Another news has already published by 90min said that interimlan interested in wan bissaka which is surpising me caused by bisaaka never perform good so far. This news is related to Intermilan, which was interested in recruiting Bissaka as a new player to replace the old defenders who are performing even worse . To be honest, I strongly agree that Manchester United should sell him because Bissaka was a garbage defender and united must get red him out from the club as soon as possible. Bisaaka was frequently making so many mistakes and he is valuable enough to be exchanged for a reasonable sum of money to be used as additional money to buy a very good defender to rebuild the club again .
Manchester United must have begun to complete its mission by overhauling the defensive line considering the fact that if the defensive line became its main waekness. Things have gotten even more difficult because Manchester has been working so hard to improve the situation.

Manchester united can try to put a very high price for bissaka since intermilan is really wanna get him now. I think that this is a golden opportunity for manchester united to replace bissaka with a very good defender who can perform consistently without making a lot of bludner.
It will be even worse for united to keep him even longer in the club.

Yes, I don't have much confidence in referees in the Premier League unfortunately.    Actually, it wasn't like this in the past or referee errors started to be discussed even more this season, I don't know.

While technology is being used more commonly in football that's why people are criticizing referees more when they make errors of course. In the end you have a great technology in your hands but you still insist on your own decision despite the objections. Sometimes even VAR referees are making huge errors. Diaz's goal was a great example for that and the PGMOL apologized for their error later on.

Burnley almost got their fifth win of the season after leading 1-0 over Brighton, but unfortunately their goalkeeper made a fatal mistake so Burnley failed to get three points so they could reduce the point difference from the Nottingham Forest team who are in seventeenth place in the standings, and this result makes it even more difficult for Burnley to improve their position and it could be said that Burnley will go down a division after only one season playing in the English Premier League
For Brighton this is also not a good result because they were predicted to win and this draw makes them even worse than last season and currently they are only in 10th place in the standings, in fact they are playing quite well and have created many opportunities but always fail to penetrate Burnley's goal and was helped because of his opponent's mistake.

I think Liverpool and arsenal suppose to win their match today by all means, because if they failed to win that means man city have already taking the premier league trophy because looking at man city squads I don't think they are going to take a shift from any clubs in England premier league.

Because as long as premier league is consign Man City is the best team so far.
