A lovely header goal from Gabriel, just 10mins into the game and Arsenal is already on fire. We expect much more goals coming in, maybe 2 more before the end of first half.
I think crystal palace have a lot of defensive work to do today because the gunners are ready and not willing to loose this game.
It is not a surprising result because Arsenal is superior in various aspects. This big win should be able to restore the mental confidence of Arsenal players. Because we know that in the last few matches Arsenal have had bad results so that their position has dropped to number 3 in the EPL standings. Competition will be even tighter if Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City are at their best. On the other hand, Crystal Palace also has to work hard to stay away from the relegation zone. They must immediately improve for the next matches. At least they can stay above the relegation zone ahead of Everton and Nottingham Forest.
I wasn't surprised that Arsenal defeated Crystal Palace in the English Premier League earlier today because I already expected them to comfortably win the game but what was surprising in that win was the goal margin. Arsenal has struggled in their recent games and have ended up not winning any game of their last four league games.
The win I believe is gonna significantly improve the mentality of the club's footballers and provide them with the needed confidence to do more in their subsequent games. Arsenal might not be one of the first two favorite teams to win the English Premier League this season but I believe they're gonna fight for it till when it'll be mathematically impossible.
It was a 5-0 match but there are some issues. In the first goal, Gabriel stops Richards from rising. In the 2nd goal, Ben White blocks Henderson's rise to punch the ball in the goal area. I think VAR should have stepped in and cancelled both of these goals. Regardless of the league, all referees make decisions according to the team. In the 2nd goal, clearly Arsenal pushes the goalkeeper into the goal and when the goalkeeper rises, he hunches and unbalances, there is a foul on the goalkeeper. Now Arsenal are equal with City with more than one game in hand. De Bruyne is back, City and Pep won't stop.
This is very interesting, personally because the players who have the Aersenal are recovering their level, as I had said before, the teams sometimes go through a crisis moment where things can go wrong from every point of view from which point evea, I could say that things when they are very different from what we think, one thing is having the team, directing it, seeing how they develop in training and another very different thing is when they are not playing there, the coahc is the only one that knows how the guards are in the event of a possible departure from their teams, I could say that the Arsneal players all understand, but I don't know if they have very strong personal problems that could affect their performance on the field, and sometimes they don't. They tell psychologists, and although psychologists point out a very important problem in players, they are the ones who indicate that if they are actually willing to play with all or nothing , they only play for the sake of compliance, because sometimes their players go out like that.
Sometimes we just give in to criticizing or saying a lot of things but basically when we start to look at things, we can sense that the teams that have the most impact on the championships are always marking the difference, in this case the PL is the league that seems to me to have a higher level than all of them now, much more than the League, than the Bundesliga , for me the team that has the baton is Liverpool , especially Arsenal, and for me it is City despite the fact that they have good players , Stars and a great coach because he now Lacks the Heart that he had last Season when they won the UCL , which for me Almost almost lost it , otherwise it would have been Because Lukaku was so slow and so bad, well I think Inter Would have been the eventual UCL winner.
After Arsenal's success with a big score, let's discuss the match that will start today, Bournemouth will be the host and Liverpool will play away.
Liverpool's condition is currently in a bit of a bad state because they lost their mainstay player, Andi, who determines Liverpool's future because this player really made a very good contribution to helping this club reach first place in the Premier League points table and even though Bournemouth is not a strong club, according to I think Liverpool can still win even if only by a narrow score.
It looks like Klopp has many options to replace Andi's position and the rumors I just read are that Jota might replace Andi's position.
What do you think ? Can Liverpool win this match?
The current odds are @1.72 for Liverpool and if Liverpool can win beating Bournemouth this will be a profitable match for bettors and it is profitable for Liverpool to maintain their position in first place in the points table.
Liverpool didn't face any problem trying to win this match and they were able to win the match comfortably. Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota scored a brace each and they got Liverpool the easy win that everybody expected Liverpool to get. Bournemouth was actually playing well in recent times and that's why some people might have thought that Liverpool will probably not be able to win the match and they might have to share points. But in the end, Liverpool was able to win and this is going to be a very big confidence booster for Liverpool in my opinion.
and yes Liverpool won this match 4-0. Which also contributed to the goal difference of Liverpool. Which I believe might be very important going forward because I think they are going to have a very big competition for the title with Man City.
The team is doing wonderfully, I believe that everyone is beginning to see that the teams can be very good if they take advantage of it, of course when we go to see each other and how each of the Liverpol players plays, each one puts their heart into it. On and as now SAalah is not there because he is fulfilling commitments with his team, the Egyptian has missed his team, but nevertheless the team has come forward, I like how LIVERPOOL is playing , they are showing that they are at the level For that reason the PL is one of the best leagues in the world, for me it is the best league in Europe, that's why I like it and I continue as they are doing it, I also know that DeBRuyne is already in the ranks of City, they have the big animal Viking Haaland, and it can be very hard to beat them like that, because in part Pepe already knows how to play a team like Liverpool by playing because of how Pep is, he knows all the Liverpool coach's strategies, what he has to do Something different if they want to beat him.
Now, keep in mind that all this could be Counterproductive, based on the fact that each game is a different story, Liverpool has many chances of Winning , City too, Because it is a team that is giving everything, because I think things can be very favorable to do if we focus on doing things the right way, that is, if the Liveporol team plays as they have been until now, even with that level against a City , I think that City is still very strong right now, no It would be easy for him to beat Them, because as I see that Pepe has prepared his players because things can be difficult for him along the way, and City also needs to have goals , I see that Asenal has a very Strong Heart, I don't Understand what the reasons were why they were playing so badly, but they have recovered, I think the coach has known how to deal with theProblems and everything is on track, wait to see how this Beautiful PL continues to develop.
TRANSFER CONFIDENTIAL: Today could be Kalvin Phillips D-Day for West Ham, Man United winger's move stalls and Liverpool set to make Calvin Ramsay call... while following Bilal El Khannouss![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.talkimg.com%2Fimages%2F2024%2F01%2F22%2FkZ9Pj.png&t=663&c=2dl9BW0-BLuHCw)
The Manchester City midfielder has long been on the wishlist of David Moyes, even prior to his £42million transfer from Leeds United in 2022, and the West Ham boss has been dogged in his pursuit.
West Ham though are well aware that the likes of Juventus have made an approach while Newcastle United were also keen. Other elite European sides have made their interest known too while Crystal Palace and Fulham have thrown their hats into the ring.
Manchester City want Phillips' future resolved and expect to have better understanding on who are the main contenders over the next 24 hours.
City were willing to loan Phillips out last summer amid interest from Liverpool among others when the loan fee was believed to be around £10m. This window it is understood to be around half that but no less substantial considering Phillips' wages too.
West Ham hope to know where they stand in their chase for Kalvin Phillips later today
That has been deemed prohibitive by Newcastle who are limited on spending and by Juventus. Both camps also have reservations about how quickly Phillips can get up to full match sharpness after just 14 games this season and limited starts.
