City - Arsenal match ended 2-2, but Arsenal would have won the match very easily if Arsenal had not been down to 10 men.
While the match was 1-2, Trossard received a red card for the second yellow card in the extra time of the first half and Arsenal were down to 10 men. In the second half, City attacked the Arsenal goal for a goal, but Stones scored the goal they were looking for at 90+8. Extra time worked very well for City today. With this draw, City increased its points to 13 and continued its leadership.

Man City did lose De Bruyne, but his role will be replaced by Gundogan and Rodri. Guardiola will probably make a similar game scheme when the second half of Man City faced Inter in the Champions League.
while Arsenal, I think must maximize the role of Declan Rice, Partey, and Saka. However, Man City is an aggressive team in attack. now they are playing in front of their supporters. they will maximize all opportunities.
Haaland opened the scoring in the 9th minute. Arteta must direct his players to get out of the current pressure.

Haaland opened the scoring in the 9th minute. Arteta must direct his players to get out of the current pressure.
Although Haaland managed to score a quick goal in the 9th minute and made it 1-0 but in reality, it did not make Arsenal pessimistic because after all, Arsenal managed to turn things around with two goals made in the 22nd minute and 45+1 and thus, Arsenal managed to win at half time with a score of 2-1. But even so, it looks like Arsenal will still have a difficult task because Leandro Trossard got a red card and thus, Arsenal only played with 10 players for the second half.
With the red card, it will certainly be a big regret for Leandro Trossard if at the end of the match Arsenal failed to maintain the victory he had in the first half. But indeed, because in this Arteta era that Arsenal also became a good team then maybe, Arsenal will maximize their defense in the second half because they only played with 10 players. But for me personally, even though Manchester City are playing at home and seeing the situation and conditions like this, it looks like it will still be difficult for Manchester City to win despite being superior in number of players.
As you expect, Arsenal have a goal advantage at the moment, but they played with 10 men in the second half. It was not an advantage. But Arteta's strategy of taking Saka off and bringing in Ben White changed the game to a total defense. It made Man City players quite frustrated. They controlled the ball but didn't have many options to play. 10 Arsenal defenders plus 10 Man City players were gathered in Arsenal's defense area. Man City only took shots from outside the penalty box, and if this situation continues, the result will not be good for Man City.
Man City was truly frustrated by Arsenal's solid defense. They had tried everything, but that sturdy wall could only be broken down shortly before the match ended. I think it took too long for Guardiola to take Doku out because, in conditions where Arsenal is playing completely defensively, players like Doku will not be effective. What Man City needs is players who can make a through pass or a direct cross into the middle, or the other option, someone who has a good long shot. Unfortunately, 2 players (Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri) who meet these criteria are currently injured, luckily they still have Grealish and Foden who are at least more useful than Doku (with the condition where Arsenal played defensive).
Brighton drew 2-2 with Nottingham Forest at home. Despite falling behind in the 13th minute with a penalty goal, the home team equalized with about 5 minutes left in the first half and managed to take the lead in the last minutes. Brighton couldn't maintain their 2-1 lead in the first half and conceded the second goal in the 70th minute. I think it was an important 2 points lost for Brighton who had more possession and created more chances than their opponent.

In this match, both sides are missing their key midfielders. On Man City's side is Kevin De Bruyne while on Arsenal's side is Martin Odegaard. So we will see a battle between Haaland and Saka up front. Arsenal will need Bukayo Saka to continue his consistent form. On the other side of the front line, Man City's most notable attacking player is, of course, Erling Haaland. Erling Haaland is still aiming for his 100th goal for Man City in all competitions.

About the decision to send off Palmer at halftime. I think you forgot that, with many players in the squad, they need more minutes to develop. And this is the reason why he was benched at the mid game.
No, I didn't forget it. It is a really difficult fact to forget about.
However I mean that they shouldn't do it with Palmer at least. If he has the energy to play longer then Maresca can just sub someone else off that early.Manchester City v Arsenal match has been going on wonderful so far!
First Haaland scored and now Calafiori gave an incredible answer. I think this amazing goal is the best start Calafiori could have made in the Premier League.It is a pleasure to watch Arteta's game against Manchester City all the time. I'm really curious if Guardiola will figure out a way to win this time. He couldn't in their previous 3 head-to-head games.

I knew the game between Manchester City and Arsenal will be an amazing game to watch, and still it will be very tough for both teams because Manchester are strong, we all know that, and also Arsenal are trying their best in performance, and they are now just 2 points below Manchester City, which Arsenal has a good defence and is also very strong for any team to find hard to penetrate, but I don’t still know what will happen in the game on Sunday. That is why I will not predict, but I have expectations or a draw game.
Although the up coming Arsenal match with Manchester City will be a tough for both teams, yeah indeed their match will little tough, because both of the teams are strong and there doing well this this season which everyone will like to claim their experts during the match; but started that arsenal are also try their not only try arsenal is also performing well this season because they don’t want repeat what has been happening for them in previous seasons.Having expectations on a draw between Arsenal and the Manchester City I think is wrong prediction, even though both teams are strong that doesn’t guarantee to predict draw against them, I know arsenal will try to make everything possible by dominating their next coming match sure.
Yes. A match that promises to be extremely attractive from the coach's bench to the field. Arsenal is a tough opponent for Man City, I'm not too sure about Man City's ability to win against Arsenal. This comes from the Gunners' good head-to-head record, having gone 3 consecutive matches without losing against Man City. However, this is a time when Arsenal does not have many options in attack without midfielder Odegaard, while Man City has a homh-field advantage and high form from Haaland. And so I choose the home team Man City to win this match. I don't think this is a draw.
Kevin De Bruyne might be missing today, but Haaland's main target is now to fire City 5 points clear of Arsenal, now they are 2 points ahead from the Gunners.
I understand that these are very good things that these players can do, but just seeing things that seem immature to me, for example Garnacho came in, scored a goal and celebrated the goal like CR7, just because of that Ten Hag is not going to score it again, so that's stupidity on the part of the coach, it seems to me that he is not a mature person, freedom has to exist, if he wants to celebrate however it doesn't matter, he already scored the goal, so because of that he won't score it, so these are the type of attitudes that don't let a team advance, is that fair? No, so basically for me the problem is only Ten Hag.
What has the celebration of Alejandro Garnacho got to do with Erik Ten Hag? C'mon man, do better!! Erik Ten Hag has never done such a thing truthfully.
Pay attention to the images below and they're big chances missed by clubs isn the Premier League Competition ( Man United players not doing badly, they just need to be clinical with them finishing ). Clean sheets in the Premier League Competition yet folks and fans will tell you that Manchester United hasn't improved from the way they was last season.
Today's big match between Man City vs Arsenal.
In terms of H2H, these two teams always compete very tightly in terms of getting 3 points in each meeting and both teams have the same results in 5 meetings. However, if we refer to the previous season, Arsenal always performed well at the beginning of the season and if that happens, I am sure this match can end in a draw or a narrow victory can be obtained by Man City.
Man City odds @1.78
Arsenal @4.80
Draw @3.70
Looking at these odds, bookmakers still believe that Man City victory can happen and a draw is also one of the surprises that could happen. I might choose to bet on under 2.25 to get higher odds because both teams don't want to concede and have a very strong defense.

These kind of matches are always open to surprise results but Manchester City have started the season very well. They won the 4 games they played this season by scoring 11 goals and 9 of the 11 goals were scored by Haaland. This wonderkid has scored almost all of Manchester City's goals. Before the week 5 matches were played, no other team had scored as many goals as him. As a footballer he had surpassed the scoring statistics of every other team. I don't care what happens in today's game, I want Manchester City to win, but I don't care about the result, I hope someone doesn't steal this boy's Balon'd'or again... :)
Actually you are right but I'm sure United ruined a lot of betting tickets today and I still cannot understand how Ten Hag is still their coach after failing so many times in the last couple of years.
Am thinking about two things that might be the reason why Manchester United are still keeping Ten Hag. The first reason why I think they are still keeping him is because they don’t really have a replacement for him yet, because if Ten Hag is sacked, who do we think can replace him that will improve the club's performance? The second reason, which I think is the reason why they are keeping him, is that maybe Manchester United are just trying to give Ten Hag more time to see if he will improve, but with the way things are going, Manchester United might end up ending the season in a worst position, which they never expected. Chelsea really impressed today and it was a well deserved victory and very important 3 points for them.
Chelsea played well in the match, and their performance impressed everyone, no one expected the match to be so easy for Chelsea. The season is just starting, but at least their performance is kind of good compared to previous seasons. I am surprised to see Chelsea in 4th position, I never expected that. Let’s just hope Chelsea will keep on improving. 
Chelsea play very well and they deserve the victory, scoring early and adding more goals made it easy for them to dominate the game. West Ham did not look like they could have won the game. Chelsea not scoring more goals was very surprising because they had many chances but did not utilized them very well or it could be they were tired of playing for the goal. Nicolas Jackson has been improving since his contract got extended, he had his 50th appearance yesterday and got a brace. I thought the coach would allow him play more so he can get a hat trick because he had just one goal left to complete that and there were many chances being created that no other players were capable of converting. Felix had few chances that he could have converted in the second half but he missed them with a close call.
Chelsea were very impressive in their game yesterday. Once again they proved that they are still a top club in the premier league as they demolished Westham. I think Enzo Maresca is finally getting the pieces together with Chelsea. I was surprised to see Jackson so composed in front of goal and finishing well. The criticism from Mikel Obi and the fans has made Jackson a better goal scorer IMO. There are high hopes now of a bright future for Chelsea FC. 
The problem with Ten Hag and his team is consistency. Ten Hag's mode of selection of his first team is another problem because, but if he can keep up with the team he displayed in the Europa League, I think they will be among the title contenders alongside Liverpool and Arsenal.
Rashford needs consistency and Gernacho is a good goal scorer, if their connection will be stronger, they will definitely score more goals for Manchester United this season.
I understand that these are very good things that these players can do, but just seeing things that seem immature to me, for example Garnacho came in, scored a goal and celebrated the goal like CR7, just because of that Ten Hag is not going to score it again, so that's stupidity on the part of the coach, it seems to me that he is not a mature person, freedom has to exist, if he wants to celebrate however it doesn't matter, he already scored the goal, so because of that he won't score it, so these are the type of attitudes that don't let a team advance, is that fair? No, so basically for me the problem is only Ten Hag.

I strongly believe both teams will be prioritizing their defense. There won't be a lot of goals to happen from them. They will produce a maximum of two goals. And most likely their game will end draw/1-0.

I think picking under 2.25 is a sense choice but going higher than that, like under 3.25 is still good; it's also less risky.
Chelsea really impressed today and it was a well deserved victory and very important 3 points for them. Same goes for Aston Villla who had the power to comeback from 1-0 against Wolves and win the game with 3-1 + this game was also a great game to bet if you had money to spare.

Liverpool are currently at the top of the points table although I think Manchester City have enough to do to win the title this season. We have seen Liverpool win Bournemouth game with Liverpool and they have added points from that win to top the points table. Anyway Manchester City is going to face Arsenal today, these two teams are very strong in EPL, I think Manchester City will win this match today. Manchester City is much stronger than Arsenal now and they perform well in every match so I think Man City will win this match today.

If Arsenal is actually able to win this match it is going to be a little bit of a surprise for me. I still think that Pep Guardiola's side is a better team with a better squad and they will have the upper hand in this match. But Mikel Arteta has also been able to build a strong squad and they will definitely give a good fight. Even though I say that Artetais's side is not as strong, I think in this match there is a chance for any of the teams to win.
the Gunners has to step up in these big matches if they want to win the English premier league title. They can't just win the matches where the teams are not as strong as them and somehow get a draw against worthy opponents. That is just hiding behind like a coward. If Arteta's men can't win against worthy opponents they don't deserve to win the title.

Dominating a game from the first minute till the last minute and still fail to win it as as good as the opposing team who was dominated because at the end of the day, both teams will leave the pitch with just one point apiece. Manchester United style of football have limited the potentials of the players in the team and that's why they're not performing at the top of their game.
If a player like Alejandro Garnacho is managed by a better manager who understands how to use his pacy and skillful playing pattern, I'm sure he'll be competing with his peers as one of the best players in the world. The earlier the club management of Manchester United comes to terms that the club will not grow more that it is now if their current manager continues to be at the club, the better for them.
Maybe because MU's players still on euphoric the big win the other day so neglect to take advantage of opportunities. I don't know why Ten Hag didn't play Rashford as starter. maybe if he played earlier can provide motivation for other players to create the winning as in the previous 2 games. Some players also showed poor performance, and giving up opportunities in front of goal. they are like "reset to the factory" and forgot how well they played the other day. If a player like Alejandro Garnacho is managed by a better manager who understands how to use his pacy and skillful playing pattern, I'm sure he'll be competing with his peers as one of the best players in the world. The earlier the club management of Manchester United comes to terms that the club will not grow more that it is now if their current manager continues to be at the club, the better for them.
