It cannot be denied that West Ham's game this season looks very good, even though they lost to Liverpool they still never gave up and were consistent in their matches until they scored goals. What is clear is that Liverpool's playing pattern is very different, because Liverpool has many great players in the front and back lines and you can be sure that they are highly favored by everyone in this match. I believe Liverpool will be able to compete for first place with Manchester City this season. I hope that one day Liverpool and Manchester City will meet to compete, this will definitely be a very exciting match and eagerly awaited by many people.

I started thinking that it isn't related to Pochettino. Because it was the same when Chelsea had Potter also. Nothing has changed now when it comes to their performance. Chelsea are continuning to spend a great deal of money but there is still no proper result of it. The amount they have spent in the recent 2 years is really scary - ~1 billion euros. 

I think it might be related to the way the whole team is managed right now. Todd Boehly might need to make some changes in his management style maybe.

Because the current way doesn't work at all. I would really like to see another owner here to see if there will be anything changing.

Yesterday's match was terrible. As a Chelsea fan, I feel that currently Chelsea is still far from winning. I was actually a little happy with Chelsea's game where they were able to control the match a little. This can be seen from ball possession statistics and also passing statistics. But for shots on target, it is clear that Chelsea are still playing very badly. This season they are not playing in any European league. I hope this can give Pochettino the opportunity to find good chemistry in the squad.

It's hard to accept the truth if last season is quite better compared with the current season. Chelsea had statistically the easiest run compared with another club since the first week but this club lost its mentality. Any players are always wasting many opportunities in scoring against its opponent.
Overhauling the team meant nothing. The quality from the players are still far compared with last season even when potter was still holding the club. Many fans were fuming to the chelsea during the match.
That's why they were booing whole of players and manager. Chelsea never scoring the ball in the back of the net since the match against forest. It's really frustrated for the fans who were spending their time to watch it.
Sterling keeps perform so badly but what's wrong with pochettino? He was always giving him more and more chance to be wasted.
Chelsea got plenties of chances but not even a single goal was coming. It's a shame for 1 billion team. I have no word to describe but it's fuckin disaster for chelsea.

  Tottenham dominated the game in both halves, they're becoming very interesting to watch every week and it's so suprising how Ange Postecoglou just came in this season and transform the team to quickly, they're now very tough and play very good football and i think he read the game better than Arteta and would had won the match, it's nice to see Son being deployed at the role of the top 9 and still performing well, the loss of Harry Kane is no affectimg this team and it's so suprising cause they keep scoring.

 I thinķ Ange Postecoglou would make one of the best coaches in the EPL this season because he's gradually transformed Tottenham into one of the strongest Contending side this season and I'm pretty sure there's a possibility of them playing in the Champions league next season, Son is in a very good form this season and would make the top 4 in  goal scorer list this season.

Both played to a draw, but I would tend to say that Arsenal's gameplay was much better. Arsenal made a fatal mistake in defense which led to a goal, but Tottenham also had the same mistake. It felt appropriate for both teams to end the match with 2-2, that's because they were almost the same statistically and also in the chances created.

So until matchday 6, Manchester City was a team that had completely managed to win 18 points in 6 matches. They are still fine even though De Bruyne and Bernardo cannot play due to injury, but the overall performance of the team is quite good so far.

This is the second time I've watched Chelsea game this season and I must say that I'm not pleased with the team performance. After the overhauling of the team and a new coach like Mauricio Pochettino at the helm of affairs, I thought things are going to be different but after watching them play today and the series of poor results, I don't think I'm wrong to say that nothing has really changed. They are just wasteful with their chances. Chelsea is not playing in any european tournament this season, so they should have an edge over other big clubs who are playing more tournament, rotating their squad and trying to keep their players fit for the next game. I'm really disappointed with the result and Pochettino better turn things around quickly.

There is a lot to say about the Arsenal - Tottenham game today. Because it was one of the really enjoyable games I have watched lately. 

Tottenham were quite weak in defense in the first half and this cost them a goal too. Because of an unfortunate touch by Romero they conceded it. However Son was preparing to save the day. I mean even 2 times.    Only a minute after Saka's penalty goal Son answered. Jorginho was at fault due to dropping the ball. At the end there was a 2-2 draw which was in favour of Tottenham obviously.

Son could have even made a hat-trick. Especially his touch right before the first goal through 3 defenders was really lovely. I should praise Vicario's great goalkeeping effort today too. 

The chances for West Ham United as I know it is always determined by Bowen. He happens to be the fine player on the team who is capable of creating something or going solo and just might win something off it. With West Ham United facing Liverpool and Bowen not being likely to future following his Illness, West Ham United might not have a chance as they face Liverpool at Anfield.
Salah has been fired up and even without getting a goal from there last game, he wasn’t hidden in the game as you could find him creating several chances and got a hat trick of assists. Luis Diaz on the other end and Darwin, West Ham United don’t get a chance.

Manchester City managed to keep there 2:0 goals lead against Nottingham Forest. It wasn’t easy for the fans and players. You could find support for the team by everyone and Nottingham Forest did there best to capitalize on the red card situation but, Manchester City still managed to keep them at bay.

Although West Ham at this moment also looks good, but it looks like West Ham does not have a big chance to be able to beat Liverpool at Anfield. Because anyway, Liverpool will also play at home and moreover, at this moment Liverpool are also concentrating on competing in the upper zone in the standings. Although Liverpool are still under Manchester City, but this will certainly still make Liverpool to consistently win. Indeed, it still won't be easy for Liverpool despite playing at home but at least, Liverpool clearly have better quality so that from the odds factor also that Liverpool are clearly favorites to win.

I’m at first I thought the 2:4 goal range given was the predicted score line and only until a second read did I find it  to be the range of goals of your prediction for the match.
Nottingham Forest aren’t going to get a chance at goal. They are already losing and even at that, playing like a team that have concealed defeat. I mean, you could find them in good positions where they could have made advances at goal, opportunities for a counter and due to tension, you find them missing legs and eventually loosing the ball back to Manchester City and Ruben or Alkanji is always delighted to send it out.

Rodri just got a red card! Could this mean anything for Nottingham forest, because I like to think that it would in boosting the confidence of Nottingham Forest and that could be more than positive for them.

Almost everyone who looks at the match program will agree with you. I am especially interested in the result of the match between Arsenal and Tottenham. Arsenal have made many quality signings after narrowly missing out on the league title last season. With the signing of Declan Rice they broke the record for the highest ever transfer fee in the Premier League. I don't have much to say about them... Totteham are doing wonders with Postecoglu... I think Arsenal will win this match, but if there is a surprise result in this match, everything can become more colorful and all football fans can be happy...

What do you all think about today's fixtures well in my opinion I think Manchester city are going to win Nottingham Forest and with a good number of goals about 2-4 goals, Nottingham don't stand a chance against them so i don't think they'll score a goal, Crystal Palace are playing at home which gives them more advantage over Fulham but i feel the match might end up draw or a win in favour of Fulham, Luton are the least performing club and got zero points in the league this season and therefore they're going to be defeated by Wolverhampton,as for the match between Brentford and Everton, I think Brentford stands better chance of winning their performance is far better than that of Everton who are in the relegation zone currently so they got better chance but Everton are fighting hard to leave the relegation zone and could make it tough for Brentford like they did with Arsenal' in their last match so it might end draw, lastly i think Manchester United will comfortably win Burnley.

I have said it many times, the MU's blunder is not its players, it is Ten Hag, if they do not change Tne Hag the MU will never be able to win anything, that is something that everyone knows, they are no longer the devils Reds, when they go to play in UCL matches they see it as a team to safely take points from them, they can play well, yes, they can do it, because they have very good players, Casemiroo, Bruno, Garnacho, they are players who perform and that everyone would like to have them on their teams, but under a management that is not allowed to succeed, they will just succeed. Against Bayern they played relatively well, but they can play much better, even with that quality of group that they have It is quite what they could achieve, in this order of ideas we can say that things when it comes to how to make a good team scheme to be a champion, the MU have it, but I don't see Ten Hagm as a champion, at least not for now.

In the UCL I recently saw a demonstration of good football by Bayern, I know that they are depending a lot on a player like Harry Kane, because for everything he is the main gunner of this, if there is no other way of looking at things I think the best team that is prepared until now to be champion or that can go very far according to what I see Madrid and Barcelona are, I see them very well for these things, since they are a fairly balanced team and can do many things well.

I also saw a PSG that does not perform, that lacks ideas, that has a lot to prove, that for me they play from one side to another without any sense, I saw them with more lack of strategy, of ideas, in reality to me The football that Luis Enrique is imposing seems deficient to me and is not attractive, they win because they have Mbappé but I don't know what they could do when he is no longer here, because there are many things that have not yet been corrected, I see many players succeed, and players promises, but apparently they are in very wrong teams, and wrong thanks to their coach.

It's true that West Ham is showing promising performance, Liverpool must make good use of the moment at home. Losing Declan Rice did not have a significant impact on David Moyes squad, the Hammers are still quite stable and have only suffered one defeat so far in the EPL. If you look at the meeting record, the Reds are still very superior, but Jurgen Klop must remain alert if he doesn't want to stumble in front of his own supporters.

I'm in line with you, it looks like Liverpool will win with a score of 2-1. Salah and his friends must try hard to reduce points and stick closely to Man City at the top of the standings, West Ham will be a test of their consistency in the sixth week.

The Liverpool game is going to be very interesting as well.Liverpool have been in a superb form this season winning all their matches and drawing just one,while WestHam have shown real qualities by winning tough opponents.Salah and Nunez has been so good together this season,but their effort will be put to test again today  as they face a tough side that has done incredibly well, surprising Everyone with their performance this season.
I know they actually made some signings that added more strength to their team,but that will also be put to test when they face Liverpool today.If I am to predict,I will go for Liverpool to win this one by 2-1.

Liverpool is playing better than last season. I saw that if the club has good chemistry at this moment. Liverpool may able to beat westham only if the club will be playing consistently as westham is now going up as a better team in EPL. It was almost making manchester city struggle at home.
Westham needs to take care of liverpool caused by moyes's squad really needs point as well. It's hard to predict which team that will win the game but as a bettor and i don't wanna take the risk by picking liverpool

Took btts for both of matches will be the wise decision for me. It's hard to predict the outcome from liverpool vs westham and arsenal vs totenham.
It's very easy to predict city but not for chelsea and united as these clubs are still under perform at this moment.

The encounter between Arsenal and Tottenham will be intense and full of tension over who will win the three points in the end. With five games played so far, both teams have played and have the the same 13 points after winning four and drawing one.
Even though the match will be tough and unpredictable to which club that owes the 3 points. I will be in the same vein, continue to pledge my support to any team that will end up winning or losing the match because they both have performed wonderfully from the start of the season.

I'm only looking forward to watch two games this weekend

Arsenal vs Tottenham.
Liverpool vs West ham.

Arsenal game is going to be action packed. Both teams have been in fine form recently so it would be really interesting to see who would triumph between the two.

For Liverpool game, I'm really hoping we win and playing at Anfield will give up the advantage since winning at anfield for opposing teams is a really big deal.

For others, Man city win, Chelsea and Man Utd, no expectations.

Indeed,there is going to be a fight on Sunday between these two North London clubs,and if Arsenal are to take home the three points,they must be well prepared knowing fully well that they are facing a side that has not lost to any team this season,and as such,must ensure they do everything possible to get a goal before Totthenham does, because that is what's going to give them the three points,if Totthenham should score before them,it will definitely be a big problem for them.
And secondly,They must know that in as much as they will be doing the playing, Totthenham will be more interested in the counter attacking because they know they can't posses the midfield than Arsenal will do.
