The success of every team is determined majorly by how great the coach performs by using the right tactics and not just that but also knowing how to implement this tactics on the players. Well this is why most teams are not doing great.The coach might have the right tactics but not but not knowing how to implement this tactics is always a great issue in modern football. This can be because  most of these players feel very big and feel the coach can’t and shouldn’t instruct them.

 Manchester United are now one of the teams now looking on to hire a coach at this point and they must consider so many factors when they want to hire a coach. The players at the team feel unnecessarily proud and they’ll need someone who’s going to be able to enhance discipline in the team. Also the need for a tactician is very important because as wide as the EPL is, different tactics will be required in different situations. Yes and out of the many options I think Conte is the best choice with his strict discipline and tactics.

 Conte has achieved great success in the EPL in the past years and achieving it againg with Manchester United and the right players of his choice wouldn’t be a big deal. Another coach who’ll perform real great is Jose in this team and I would love to see him return because I feel he can still achieve great things if he’s given the right resources.The thoughts of Graham Potter is real crazy as the man has nothing to offer in both tactics and discipline and rather he’ll even go down as the worst coach if hired. Though I think the board wants to stick with ETH and grow more with him which I think will be the solution. ETH still needs more time and with the time and enough resources given and funds too, he’ll sure achieve great deeds for the club.

I must admit united gave tough game during the first half but it's not for the second half. The player could not be as consistent as the first half. It was also making manchester united being isolated on its penalty box. United puts so many players in front of the goal keeper.
It has forced city to play long ball combined with back pass which was used to lure some players left from their positions. That's smart strategy from manchester city. As you can see that how lazi MU's attackers to help the defenders.

They were very slow in going back to backup their goal keeper. That's quite different with what used by chelsea in the last weeks. MU is more inconsistent compared to the chelsea.

United never learned from their previous game. The game against city has been also proving that how manchester united played so garbage in this game. Chelsea used different strategy but it was almost beating city while MU has battered by manchester city.
So, the problem is on the defensive line of manchester united. Some players were also so lazy in going back to help their friends to defense against city.

It was quite surprising that Man United could score first because they were playing as guests and they were not in good condition. But it turns out that the surprise was only the beginning of their nightmare because after that 1 goal Man United ended up failing to show off their football. Their rhythm of the game is very monotonous and it can be seen that they are very nervous.

Many Man United players are confused about what to do and end up making mistakes, for example Casemiro who often makes dangerous maneuvers in blocking the ball or Garnacho who has difficulty in penetrating and often makes the wrong passes or when Amrabat made a blunder and made it a way for Haaland to score the third goal for Man City. There are only 2 players who I think played quite well in this match, that are Bruno Fernandes and Andre Onana.

Without a doubt, the figure of the match was Foden, said by Pep Guardiola himself, so in view of this we realize that when Certain things are going to be answered, we have to see what they can achieve, I am one who He has always thought that Foden has nerves of steel in this type of game, even on ESPN they were eventually going crazy with everything they said, for example they called Foden the Sniper, and boy did they, because the goals he scored were very good , spectacular, everything was given so that they could give their best, but even so they had everything to score even more goals, of course in this game the one who put the cherry on top was Haaland , therefore this is one of the things that this player He is a gem for the team, and the team is in good shape right now, and that is the sole work of Pep Guardiola. I'm worried, will Guardiola now stay here? or will he leave? I don't know but I see Guardiola very committed to the things that have to do with Barcelona, because he is worried about it and from there I saw that he wants to lead a team to take it to a soccer World Cup.

In this order of ideas I see that many more things that Pep wants have emerged, but for now I see him determined to go for everything in the PL, they go like this:



Source: Google.

They are only one step away from taking first place, so will they be the leaders of the PL? They will do it? How can these things be done, then if I start to see how they can Attack this type of thing in the PL, I would say that Lieproool has to play With his soul from now on, this is something that they have to see from now on Imagine that now Klopp is worrying, but Klopp lost games that he should not have lost, for me he threw everything he has done in his effort overboard, because for example against Arsenal things did not go very well, now he This is a very good thing, because Peope wants to go for everything, he wants to go for the PL and the UCL, this is something that has no Compassion and goes all in for it.

Pep Guardiola is one of the coaches who has the most things to do, I think he is more valued by Barcelona, now if we look at it, where does the future see Pep? at Barcelona or stay at City, if he wins where can he stay? there or go try it, do you see any luck in Spain?

Things that are being seen are very good:


‘A much better footballer’…Paul Scholes says Manchester City star is ahead of £11m Chelsea legend




Source: https://tbrfootball.com/a-much-better-footballer-paul-scholes-says-manchester-city-star-is-ahead-of-11m-chelsea-legend/

Well for now how to compare with Scholes is because they are very affectionate, this is something that everyone notices, he has received many good things that have been said to him, for now things are quite great, will City take first place? Pepe is looking for him at all costs, he wants to show that he is the best, so far what he is doing is going very well, and possibly if things go well for him, it is very likely that Pep will win another UCL again, because he equipment that I saw, wow it was quite a machine that spins at more than 3600rpm.

It's one thing to score an early goal when you're playing against a big team like Manchester and absolutely a different thing to protect the lead till the end of the game or even add more goals to the match. Manchester United were able to take the lead inside the opening ten minutes of their English Premier League game against English, European and World champions Manchester City and were even able to protect that lead till the end of the first half of the game but failed to put out a good performance that'll see them win the game in the second. The performance of Manchester United in the second half of their game against Manchester City was absolutely poor from a big club like United and that was why they were outclassed by Manchester City who emphatically defeated Manchester United by scoring three unreplied goals in the second half of the game to come from behind to claim all three points and reduce their points difference behind league leaders Liverpool to just one point.

Phil Foden was the man who inspired Manchester City to come back into the game. Before the game, I was of the opinion that Manchester City striker Erling Haaland will make the difference but despite scoring after Manchester United defense made a huge error very late in the game, the Norwegian wasn't the player of the match as he skied the ball when he had only the goal post to beat from less than five yards. The possibility of Manchester United finishing the season in the top four this season I think is almost impossible considering their current position and recent performances.

The truth is, I don't think that players, because they have many players who do it well, but under the direction of Ten Hag what they did was to be all together as defenders, because they only scored 1 game, but they do not have players who can stop players quickly, they cannot be determined, they are not Prepared and also core because they don't repeat the codes, if a team has a lot of strength then basically it doesn't get tired, it just holds on, to make a total fight, but that's all, then when looking at things I think the best thing to do is try to see and avoid at all costs that this happens again, the truth is that City came in from all sides, the MU guys seemed very comical running behind the ball, they scored the goal because well, it was a genius from Rashford but I don't think otherwise that they have life in the PL.

For the MU fans who have faith in a team that is still in Ten Hag, let me inform you that you will be left with the desire, this man does not want this team to emerge, today they suffered a big defeat, as long as they do not beat the City, Arsenal, Liverpool, I won't see them in the first 4 places, it's a shame, but they should remove a coach like Ten Hag, I don't know, but there are still people who defend him despite the embarrassing situation he has left I am sure that he does not suit a team like the MU, for me it is clear, but not for the leaders, and the fact is that time passes and the score remains the same, and the players, the ones, are going to leave, and Now when they want to form a good team it is not worth having quality players, they have Garnacho, they have Bruno, they have Csemiro Varane, and they can't! They have a Rashford and neither, then? What do they seek? who is to blame=?

‘Ratcliffe will see that’…Pundit shares why Ten Hag will be sacked after Manchester City performance




The goalkeeper? Do you think the Goalkeeper had a lot to do with it ? No , not at all , the Goalkeeper did what he could, go and save goals from De Bruyne, Haaland and all the City Stars, no, the coach's quota is total, I don't Know how long they Are going to wait for him to leave? When they do not qualify and they give up as always, the MU is Being very conformist, they are giving up on winning and they cannot and do not want to react, what I say about this is that Ten Hag has always been the worst decision that the club has made in hiring him , here no MU player was to blame, they suffered a defeat, proposing to put their entire team on defense when at the Beginning of the game they couldn't score more, it was a very bad strategy, in fact I have always said something , I Still Want that Your team, don't score more goals, you have to leave everything in the hands of a great controgople, you have Rashford who Runs quite , you have to take Advantage of his speed, they put Him in Late , and he is the one who runs the most , they have a Garnacho who It was defined and at the same time attacking, they were Practically Tired , because you Cannot have a game Based on Defense, not even Italy in their best times did it that way.

If they scored a goal, fight back , play with the Desperation that they were the Locals and go immediately to a deadly counterattack because a good counterattack would have made them score everything else and I'm not saying anything that they put everything into defense but deu Make sure you have passed at least 60 minutes of play and put yourself on defense with 2 goals in favor and that it is like a Wall , but Otherwise things cannot be done like that.

For me the game could have been MU's if they had Played it in the most defensive way but with a devastating counterattack, but that is not the way a Ten Hag plays , in fact the South American Teams do manage these strategies very well, but the European Player or European leader does not believe in that strategy, either it is only attack or it is only Defense, and that is not how football works , Especially Against a City team.

‘Absolutely brilliant…’ Paul Scholes amazed by Manchester United star v Manchester City

Manchester city vs Manchester united game many people thought that it will be a tough game based on how organize Manchester united organized in this new year to take victory from some games and, they started the game well to lead the game 0:1 till the end of the first half but I don't know what happened that make Manchester city to equalized the goal in the second half.

 I believe Manchester united goalkeeper contribute among the things that made Manchester city to added 2 goals to beat Manchester united in their home 3:1 , I believe this is a lesson to Manchester united coach to learn from to replace this goalkeeper before things go get worst.

Hehe Manutd almost give a heart attack to Mancity fans before Foden scores at 56' minute. But in the end they are leading 3-1 now, and many people who bet on Mancity must be happy right now.
And soon we will hear more gossip regarding Ten Hag in Manutd.
With this result, there is 6 points difference for Manutd to chase Tottenham if they want to participate in the Europa competition.
2014/2015 season was the last time that Manutd not join any EU competition because they finished in the top 7th back in 2013/2014 season.

Early goal by ManU and an equalizer by Foden. It was 1-1 for quite a time. Manchester City attacking and Manchester United defending. It looked like ManU would be able to make it a draw. But with consistent attacks and Foden was able to give Manchester City at the 80th minute and with the Haaland converting a good assist to a goal in the injury time.
The game now ended as expected Manchester City getting the full points on Manchester Derby and Remaining unbeaten against ManU this season. And more importantly keeping a close race with Liverpool for the title.

And if they're in need of a new coach, they should have known better and not to bring a coach like Graham Potter to Manchester United. What Nonsense! It's embarrassing reading such headline news about the new sporting director to be employed from Newcastle United, I don't know if this is how they Jim Radcliffe and his team plan on winning the Champions League Competition and also knocking clubs like Liverpool and Manchester City. Lol they don't mean business then.

I feel like Erik Ten Hag is doing a good job but he doesn't have the qualities and players to do that very well, take a good look at the season, he has almost a large part of his group out Injured and they want him to be sacked? They're now owners and I can't dictate for them what decision to be taken.

I wish it'll be Antonio Conte but these people and management have them own plans, they'd probably sink the club if they bring in a name like Graham Potter! Jose Mourinho retuning would even make sense. Graham Potter issa dead coach, not good enough to manage Manchester United.

Manchester United have not been at their best as it’s seeming the glory days at the club are now over and forgotten. That’s why the board has always tried and made move to acquire a great coach who’ll be able to get the club back to glory. They hired ETH and his coming was met with great feelings from the fans and when he got the league cup in his first season and the UCL spot also, the felt the glory days can now be back. Things have gone pretty bad and now worse and they’re now considering ETH Out as he’s no more productive like he was the first season.

 The p erformance of a team is majorly decided by the kind of coach and how influential the coach is. Yes influential especially in terms of implementing his tactics and making sure order is kept in the team, this is a quality of a good coach.These are the qualities the United board should look out for in a bid to hire a new coach. When looking at these qualities the likes of Conte and Jose comes to mind and I agree with you when you have these choices.

 Conte is a very good tactician and he’s succeeded in the shores of the EPL and achieving success at Manchester United who’s a big club and have the funds will be pretty no much work for him. Conte just has the right tactics and I trust him to have the perfect tactics to help this United team be in full shape and back on track. Jose on the other end was the last successful coach of this club and I think he achieved success with limited resources and him returning when he’ll have the available resources will be real one big team to watch. Jose is a specialist and is considered one of the few great coaches to grace the world of football. I don’t think Xabi to Man United will be able to work as he’s got two big clubs already bidding for him and I don’t see him having any affiliation to Man United so I think Jose or Conte will be better replacement should ETH be sAcked.

In the Premier League today, Burnley vs Bournemouth, Bournemouth team won the match by scoring 2 goals. In this match, Bournemouth team is ahead of Burnley team's point table. Because Bournemouth team's players are very good, which is why Burnley team is leading in the point table. Which of the 5 matches is Burnley team?  Did not win the match.Out of 5 matches drew 1 match and lost 4 matches.

Jose Mourinho? Do you think this is a joke? Jose Mourinho already had his time with the club Manchester United and wasn't allowed to do whatever he wanted. I would even consider Jose Mourinho over the so called Graham Potter's news I'm seeing close to Manchester United appointment, isn't that such a daft thing to do?
Manchester United would definitely lose lots of fans if they appoint Graham Potter as head coach of Manchester United. same coach that couldn't go pass ten with Brighton and Chelsea? These journalist are complete bastards.

Antonio Conte? Peng! Tactician and Tactically sound and great, I would love to work with such a disciplined coach.

Xabi Alonso is not amongst the names Manchester United had listed, hell No, they don't that idea to sign him. Xabi Alonso would be best off with Bayern Munich or Liverpool.

A single goal in the plus 9 minutes for the league leaders in what I and I believe it goes the way for most of us, in what we could have expected to be an easy win turned out to be a stand threatening performance. That’s not a smooth game though they dominated and managed to win but it wasn’t anything smooth. Their position as league leaders could have easily slipped off them. I didn’t see them winning this one from how the game have treaded but, Nunez to the rescue.

Spurs on the other hand was nothing short of impressive. Coming from a 1 goal down to beat Crystal Palace by 3 goals to 1, that’s just what is expected of them. It’s a game that they should win and they finally did it late for themselves.

Westham has proven to be growing thicker skin even after their 4 goal to 2 win with brenthford have succeeded in bitting everton 3 goals to 1 and currently in number 8 position probably they should be fighting to be in the Big top 4 in the table. What do you think of westham united?
I for me I believe they are going to perform wonderfully in their next match with Burnley.

Liverpool match against Nottingham forest was so interesting it wasn't an easy ride for Liverpool but however they finally won by 1 goals ofcourse three points has been achieved.

Yes, of course it won't be a problem, but after you say that if you sell de Bruyne and bring in young players, you must need senior players to provide experience, like Haaland, Bernardo Silva and other players who are ready to provide support to young players to improve the talents of these young players.
But I have the same mindset as you maintain one season and bring in young players and de Bruyne can provide his experience to these young players after leaving to leave Manchester City.
I heard de Bruyne also say he wanted to play with Ronaldo, or did that mean he would go to Saudi Arabia for a big salary?

2-2 for the blues vs brentford. When it reaches the last moments of the second half, the game becomes incredibly intense. Glad to see that disasi scored another goal and it helped chelsea to avoid losing three points. It's time for chelsea to do another comeback to win against brentford.
There still additional time remaining and chelsea has another chance to score another goal. The gameplay of chelsea is always triggering viewers get their heart beat even faster than before. it's caused by this club was always doing something wrong at the late game.

Hopefully chelsea can secure three points that will help the club a lot. Chelsea really needs three points to climbing up again. Pochettino can avoid to be sacked by the club if he will be consistently winning the game. The bad result against liverpool was still disrupting the performance from chelsea.
The back played so badly as it was never able anticipating brentford's players. Brentford kept use the low block strategy to prevent chelsea get three points.

Pochettino never have good solution to fix the problem encountered by chelsea when it was facing defensive strategy. Pochettino must secure three points to make his life in the chelsea even longer after it was bottling FA cup.

Sometimes, pochettino's strategy is very hard to understand. Disasi's heroic performance in the match against Brentford not only saved the club from defeat but also left the fans completely perplexed.

It seems Chelsea would be beaten away, what a terrible team. After taking the lead in the first half, controlled most of the game, they came in to conceive a goal early in the second half and not quite long, conceive yet another goal. This was supposedly a win for them but, they might have to settle for a draw. Their mistake was letting Brentford get ahead of them in the second half.
Nottingham Forest have done a great job in holding Liverpool down to a draw. This might not be the Liverpool squad that might be very terrifying but, it’s a team that has produced results for Klopp lately and not having to beat Nottingham Forest in this fixtures is a big loss to there position as league leaders.

Newcastle vs Wolves two teams are in the field to play. Newcastle team is leading by 2 goals. I have bet against Newcastle team in today's match. It seems that Wolves team will not win. If Wolves team does not win this match then I will lose the bet so I am worried.  Will lose the bet. Newcastle team player A. Isak scored the 1st goal in 14 minutes. A.  Gordon scored the 2nd goal on 33 minutes.

Manchester United has now slowly joined Chelsea in changing of managers at least every 2 seasons. The team has been performing poorly and for this reason, there’s a need for them to want to change management. ETH came in his first season and the whole fans were excited and the excitement grew even wild and well when he led the team to get the League Cup in his first season. He received a laud applauds and he was commended for his efforts.

 This feat made the board grow confidence in him and released some funds for him to acquire his choice of players to enable him achieve huge success this season. The reverse became the case here as he wasn’t able to achieve anything and currently the only chance of silverware is the FA Cup where they’ve been drawn to face their arch rival, Liverpool. This kind of situation is what’s pushing the club want to get rid of ETH and want to hire a better coach for the club. Well talking about a better coach, I think they’ll need a very good tactician with wide range of experience in the league.

 Yes Conte and Mourinho are very great options as these coaches have achieved hige success already in the league and achieving great success level this season wouldn’t be a bog deal. With the new management at the club, I think funds will be released for the new coach to get good players. Even if not getting new players, I think the current squad can be well managed to achieve huge success and a tactician with EPL. experience can achieve this.. I don’t think Xabi to Man United will work even if they try so it’s a NO for me.
