Pochettino was a fairly good coach only that he needed more time to build that understanding he required from the management team and probably since he left the PSG, and returned back to the Premier League again. I also feel he's a big coach and a lot of people expected big results from him but his performance with Chelsea can be rated average or a bit below for someone has been as him. His performance and that of Eric Ten Hag is not far-fetched from each other.

Now that Chelsea have decided to part ways with him, he should just take a break and restrategize. What I've understood with most of these managers especially for Pochettino is, whilst he's a celebrated manager of his own rights, he would still go on to have issues with his management teams like he had with Paul Winstanly and Lawrence Stewart who are both two sporting and recruitment directors employed by the team owner to give support. All these little disagreements are nothing but distractions to some of these professional managers.

With the way Chelsea keep letting go of their coach you will understand how much the club are struggling to keep up with long term project, rather they are trying to build up a team for future purposes. With Enzo now at the helms of affair, you can have some sort of confidence because of him being under Pep and also with his success at Leicester City, now that means to an extent he’s built his stand on English football.

 ⁠Now he’s got the preseason period to be able to build his team and with the pressure on him, he should try hard not to make much mistakes in his choice of squad selection. I think with him being rooted in the Epl, he will to an extent have some level of success in the club. With how bad Chelsea has changed managers, you can say that at this point, they are struggling to keep up with having the right manager for the club.

 Now at this point, you can see how they tried to manage with the likes of Potter and Lampard and that alone tells how much they have struggled to keep up. ⁠Enzo will have plenty of work to do and that should start with him trying to build up a great squad because they’re going to participate in the UECL and also the FIFA Club World Cup which means plenty of matches for the team. Also they have a very young squad and managing them to attain their best is pretty crucial at this point.

Haaland is indeed a beast in EPL games but he needs to clutch those important games of UCL , right ? He is still young and have a lot of time to improve on important games and I think Pep will make him a scoring machine in UCL as well so it's just a matter of time. It's also very important for Pep to remain a couple more years with City because if he leaves , I really don't see City to dominate EPL in the way they did it until now.

I also don't see Haaland staying at City for the rest of his career and Bayern Munchen will try to get him at some point for sure. He is destined to be there at some point.

But discussions of him being absent during big games, how do you judge this? Especially against Real Madrid and Finals. I think he hasn't been able to score during the last four to five finals he has played for Manchester City.

He is although useless with chances created for him to score. I'm expecting Manchester city to make plans for a new set of midfielder's since Kevin De Bruyne and Bernado Silva are both linked to leave the club Manchester United immediately they're done with the European Competitions coming up this month in the next couple weeks.

Erling Haaland will not be leaving, and if he is to leave, who will bw able to fund such a player? Not even Barcelona at the moment who I think would have been the right destination for the lad.

What's with Eddie Howe? Second season no trophies and no body has said shit about him.

His ability to score goals so far makes him very worthy of being called a monster, Haaland who came from Dortmund at a fairly high price is certainly a smart purchase from Manchester City and even at the beginning of his arrival last season, Haaland immediately managed to meet Manchester City expectations by becoming the league top scorer with 37 goals, Haalaand seems to have managed to make the Premier League look easy for him for scorer goal,  Haalaand has now managed to be the right replacement after Manchester City lost Aguero and this season the number of Haaland goals is not as many as last season but in fact he is still able to be the top scorer and  competete with players who have been in the Premier League for a long time.

Haaland currently has a market value of 187 million euros, for a rich team of course the price is nothing compared to his ability to score goals, although indeed the release clause owned by Haaland is very small but I think it will not be easy to get Haaland from Manchester City because indeed he still wants to continue his adventure in the Premier League at this time.

Haaland is a blessing for Manchester City obviously.    The squad is wonderful as a whole of course. But Haaland was like the missing piece of the puzzle and after him they are much stronger. Haaland is a goal machine before anything else. He was a little more normal this season though.    But he still scored 27 goals in the Premier League.

Like I said on some other thread, Haaland has a release clause at the same time. It is said to be worth 175 million pounds. Guardiola has worries about the situation so he wants Haaland's future at Manchester City to be secured. Let's see how things go but I believe he is staying now.

I agree, as I never had a good idea of who was going to take that job after seeing that Chelsea's management are completely poor with whenever they call long term plans and having patience.
It's a good time to see him appointed as the manager because he will have enough time to know these players and work well with them during pre-season.
He had a good knowledge of the Premier League Competition after working with Pep Guardiola before moving to Leicester City in the Championship. I'm certain he will achieve success.

Graham Potter to Chelsea was a wrong move from day one, we all know he was not a top four club coach in the Premier League Competition, as we saw him having ten position as his best season, season after seasons. Frank Lampard was the most tiring of them all. He will need depth because they're in the European Conference League Competition now.

Yes, he is taking the helm at Chelsea from now on. It was an unexpected kind of move for most people as far as I can see. Because Chelsea has been mostly going for coaches with an impressive career.

We have seen big names managing this team very often. But in the recent years they also joined the current trend. They want to try different coaches than the usual. They tried Potter and Lampard but they couldn't get the result they expected. After Pochettino they want to rejoin this trend. However Boehly should know that it is better to be patient to get results. The first season might not be great, everyone isn't Xabi Alonso.  

Haaland is one of Manchester City's most important players and is generally regarded as the main striker. When the opposition team takes the field against Manchester City, the opposition team will always try to stop the Manchester City attacker who is there, so if two or three defenders are behind him at all times, they will. When the opposing team makes all preparations to stop a team's main striker, the manager of this team makes plans with the other players available. This is because when the opposing team's defenders block their main striker, another player will score at that opportunity.  Haaland is really a very strong player because he does his job properly no matter how much he is hindered, which is why Manchester City rely on him so much.

The majority of EPL managers are becoming increasingly accustomed with how to counter Haaland by putting extra backs on the bottom line to lock his movement., this has been implemented by several strikers who were successfully blocking his mivement. This makes haaland feels more difficult to get into the free space and getting even closer to the penalty box. I meant Guardiola rarely changed his plan like try to put two or more strikers at front, such as adding more attackers to ensure Haaland wasn't alone there. This is Pep's biggest problem and he must able to find a solution for this problem.

He was too often employing a single attacker tactic and this is burdening haaland. This also causes its opponents to constantly deploy additional backs on the bottom line in try to prevent Haaland from scoring. This is undoubtedly a significant concern for Haaland.

Haaland must play even more attractively in the future season considering his oppoentn will be very familiar to him and about how to see him scored. He was quick but lack of positioning last season unlike the previous season when haaland scored more than last season. Halaand also has enough physical power to go one on one with the opponent's defender. Pep must ensure that he is able to present other strategies.
Putting Haaland as the sole striker is not always effective considering the fact that if haaland was often missing the ball. I understand that I can occasionally be used as a ploy by the city to outperform its opponents but Haaland is becoming even less productive than the previous season and this is bad for him, pep must think a proper soltuion for haaland's problem. Haaland's productivity may be even less than this time if he will not able to find the solution for this problem.

Arsenal's only weakness was that they dropped points in several important matches. As Arsenal were competing for the title, every match was very important for Arsenal. But Arsenal could not continue the winning streak. In this season Arsenal team was defeated in 5 matches. Maybe Arsenal could have won the championship if they had not lost in 5 matches.

Arteta will definitely try to strengthen Arsenal's squad next season. However, we won't see much change within Arsenal's squad. Because Arsenal's current squad players have played very well this season. So Arteta will not need to make too many changes within the squad. Too much change in the squad is likely to destabilize the team's performance.

Haaland is a great striker who has a great clinical finishing touch, but He's never been a messiah for Manchester City. The term messiah in football means someone who help his team when everything is not going well for team, while Manchester City has never been unwell even before Haaland arrived. They kept being Champion while their players kept receiving appreciation awards for their contributions.

Manchester City is the best team at creating chances to score. The arrival of Haaland just makes everything easier for Manchester City to score  goals. I think Manchester City don't even need to put much efforts to make Halaand sign for them. They know Haaland wants to pay for a team that have capability to create chance after chance.   

City was struggling at the middle of season but manchester city has been get rid of all problems at the late season. Even arsenal was not even able in winning the league for two times in a row caused by manchester city. Manchester city is having winning mentality unlike its opponents in the premier league.
No fuckin way for city to win EPL 4 times in a row if the club was still performing so badly. The citizen has ever break a new record as a club that is winning EPL 4 times in a row.

Arsenal was not even winning an EPL trophy since two decades ago. This is why manchester city is likely keep dominating PL next season coming from how consistent they are in winning the EPL trophy.
It's very hard to imagine city will not be contender to win EPL for the fifth times. Manchester city will make it happen soon.

This can become the next narrative to see city win EPL 5 times in a row.

Manchester City have proven beyond doubt that they're already the top club in the English Premier League this season. Winning matches without difficulty and also leading to enter infront above other competitive oppositions. Erling Haaland is not the only player that should receives accolades and glory for winning the EPL title for Manchester City. There's presence of other key players in the club and I've watch closely to see how incredible they've been under the regime of Pep Guardiola.

Haaland like any other player cannot be consistent always but his performance this season was still great and they were able to push their team to the triumph of the premier league this season. This is their fourth consecutive win of the premier league and the second consecutive one for Haaland. Despite his performance not up to that of last season, he is still a great striker to reckon on.

I know that but his performance in UCL was really disappoint me. It was not the same as when city was winning UCL last season. haaland did nothing in UCL this season.
