This is a bad night for me when watched Manchester City get unexpected results. Newcastle's defense is very tight that make the city attacker can't move freely on penalty box. Haaland also has several times throw away the opportunity with his head but the goddess of fortune is still protecting Newcastle. I admit, the city performance is not good after Rodry injury, their substitute player wasn't able to fill up Rodry's position, and look difficult to pressing the opponent. I think Pep Guardiola must change the scheme after this result. Some midfielders like Bernardo Silva and Grealish look dead end to stab in front, Gurdogan also far away from his performance that make Haaland confused and tend to look for the ball self.
Manchester City struggled so much to break Newcastle's defense. It can be seen from their deep entries below.
The majority of their deep entries were around their opponent's penalty box. It's very hard for them to score the second goal. It's caused by their opponents put all their players in the penalty box. I was also aware of their frustration with the opponent's "park the bus" tactic. The same situation as when they faced Arsenal in the last game.
Maybe Erling Haaland should be more humble now, eh?! Why's nobody calling him out on his BS?! That was complete disrespect on Mikel Arteta during the last fixture against Arsenal. Mikel Arteta poked Pep Guardiola and he gave him exactly what he wanted. Lol! Well, they're kickin'for the top four in a cool way, a good way to start, hopefully it ends well for em.
Because there is everything in it. It is so much fun and Chelsea lead by 4-2.
Palmer is really not from our world. Chelsea had better hold onto him tightly. Because I have no doubt there would be powerful teams going after him next summer. I can't imagine how sad Guardiola would be while watching his enormous effort at Chelsea now. I think Palmer did the right thing too otherwise we were never going to see this.
