Totenham was good in attack, but terrible at defense. The big loss against Liverpool should be a wake up call for them to stop using their shitty high-line tactic. Their high-line has become their major problem. That's why they often conceded in any important game.

Really disappointed how stubborn Ange is to keep using such disgusting tactic. His team's defense could easily be exploited by their opponent. That's what Liverpool did. I'm sure they would not have conceded 6 goals, if they play no high-line defensive.

High-line defensive line is one of their biggest blunders.

This season is fully beyond our expectation because the duo Manchester has been experience the decline and everytime starting new season we always be discuss and talking about Manchester City as the strong candidate for the title but this season is different because Manchester City have displayed poor performance and probably they will out from the title race and for Liverpool too at the beginning of season i highly doubt they can performing well after Klopp leave but surprisingly they can occupy first place and strong candidate for the title

Besides big teams some of mediocre teams such as Bournemouth or Nottingham Forest can appears as the contender for European zone and this is indeed very surprising too because previously we never discuss about these teams and underestimate these teams can compete for top 5 place but Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth has been showing their consistency and at least until week 16 they still stable and can reach to top 5 place

Personally I feel that Everton played their ball as they always do, though they were lucky to have hold their defense in other not allow chelsea to penetrate them at ease and that's a good one, this has always been the case in the match between chelsea and everton,  if we should consider the previous meetings of Chelsea and Everton, we will understand that Everton are always stubborn when both teams meet and sometimes they even end up winning Chelsea, i wtach that match, i noticed that Chelsea were confused at a point, they had no option than to accept a draw in the match because they tried there possible best to outsmart the Everton team in their defense but such plan was proved unfruitful and abortive.

Yea Everton succeeded in depriving Chelsea winning in that match, they push back once they notice any sign of Chelsea approaching the defensive midfield, though I applaud Everton in that match because if they had relaxed, it would've been a very big disaster for them, as for Chelsea being close to Liverpool in the league, it's a temporal setback for them but there's still hope since the season is still much alive.

It is not a good attitude to protect players and there are many problems in Manchester City's body now because they have suffered many consecutive defeats.
If you see the position of the players almost all under pressure and they all do not show a good game to achieve victory, Pep Guardiola must be the one to blame because he is responsible for his team's poor performance.
The midfield may be very important where there is no measured pass that can be given to the attackers, making Haaland start to struggle to score goals. Likewise with the defense where they look very weak and uncoordinated with each other in stopping the opponent's attack.

Obviously Liverpool got a very simple win, did not expected it to be "this" easy but I knew they would win regardless, definitely a good bet. They are going great at the league, definitely a big deal because at the start of the season everyone was worried what would happen with a new coach, and Arne Slott provided that he is not really some just random manager, he is a great one.

Thankfully they are doing great, and City lost once again, that seems like the theme for them and they are doing terrible so far, one win in twelve games isn't really acceptable at all, feels such a big misery and I do not see how they could recover from such a thing, but hopefully things will get much better for them on the long run.

You have a very valid point here. Blaming himself wasn't just the proper thing to do. And as for pep being fraud, well, maybe that isn't far from the truth either. From the way things has been going lately, I have start to reconsider if the absence of Rodri is actually the problem they are facing here. I have watched city played in recent times, and I've seen some shitty defending that these players do. They look so confused that you start feeling they might still continue like this even when Rodri comes back. A friend of mine tried explaining to me that this struggle will possibly continue, because it looks very much like their struggling moment, and I believe most teams usually gets moments like this, but city's own choose to surface this season.

And as for Haaland, he knows very well that he is a pure 9, and not the type that contributes greatly aside from scoring. There are players that ought to feed him with the ball. That's how pep had built the system since his joining. So, not been able to score should probably be because he didn't take the few chances he had, besides how many chances was he given since their game against Juventus. I just checked, and the only thing I saw in their last 3 games is just 19 passes, while the others are zeros, which shows how the system doesn't favour him sometimes.

This is the result that Everton wanted and they managed to frustrate Chelsea players in finding opportunities to score goals. The creativity of the attack built by Chelsea players did not find a good coordination point so that it was difficult for the striker to finish. The tempo was also slow where there was no open space that could be utilized by Chelsea and we also have to admit that Everton's defense looked so solid and neat because even though they didn't do many counter-attacks, the focus on defending that they did was quite successful. The draw that was obtained made Chelsea's chance to approach Liverpool disappear again because Liverpool themselves still have one game left to play.

I was also surprised when I saw Everton who were able to withstand all the attacks from Chelsea so that none of the attacks became goals until the end of the match. In addition, I also saw from the level of ball possession which was more dominated by Chelsea than the home team, but Everton were able to make a very solid defense in order not to lose in front of their own supporters so that Everton managed to get a point from the match. And Chelsea began to have a distance again with the top of the English Premier League standings, Liverpool.

It's Haalaand's effort to help him realize if he's not good enough. The whole team should be blamed, not only him and Pep. Haaland is not good enough these days. He's lazy in helping their club with defense, and lacks pressure on their opponent.

i see nothing wrong from him to blame himself. In fact, his performance is gradually declinig at this moment.

Blaming himself some stupid thing to do honestly. Pep Guardiola should be the first to be blamed,  he's been talking about his players but go check the list of available players and you'll see that he is a big fraud. Though he did drop form when it comes to converting the big chances he has this season what he did previous seasons. The midfielders and wingers are also all worned out, what's needed is a proper rebuild. Erling Haaland is not the problem with City.

Liverpool this season is indeed very impressive and indeed they seem to be a strong candidate to become champions this season as long as their performance does not decline and yes, so far Arne Slot can be said to have succeeded in building Liverpool because up to now no one has been able to bring down Liverpool from the top of the standings. Yes, in the match between Tottenham and Liverpool which Liverpool won, it was truly extraordinary because Liverpool scored 6 goals and this was very good and it can be seen that the Liverpool players were really good at taking advantage of the opportunities that existed. Of course, in this match Liverpool players such as Diaz, M. Salah, Mac Allister and Szoboszlay really became heroes because they scored the goal against Tottenham. Yes, of course, now Tottenham have to swallow the bitter pill and have to be willing to be beaten by Liverpool and of course as hosts they will definitely be embarrassed, but yes, even though Liverpool are the visiting team, they have really shown the great quality of their game and will definitely now make Liverpool sit comfortably at the top of the standings. .

Yes, it seems that now, psychologically and mentally, Liverpool is definitely better because Liverpool have seen the matches of other teams which certainly won't be too threatening to Liverpool, such as Chelsea, who didn't get maximum points against Everton and fortunately, Liverpool still has a postponed match against Everton. What is certain is that if Liverpool can win against Everton it will certainly make Liverpool's point difference with the other teams even further and this will definitely make Liverpool and Liverpool fans happy. but of course there are still many matches that will be played by all the EPL teams and of course we will see whether Liverpool will succeed in becoming champions or not and whether there will be a surprising team that will threaten Liverpool or not.

Even though you lost this match between Chelsea and Everton, I bet on Manchester City and Aston Villa. But Manchester City performed very badly in this match and despite having a strong squad, they lost this match.
Even though they competed for a long time, Manchester City could only score one goal. Although Manchester City missed a lot of attacks in the first half, I, as a Manchester City fan, will never forgive them for their poor performance in this match. Because I suffered a huge loss in this match.

This is why the Premier League is beautiful. Everton managed to get a point against Chelsea and did not give Chelsea a chance to score. Chelsea has been able to score many goals this year and many people thought they could score in this match but the match ended goalless. We can say that Everton achieved a great success. Because it is very difficult to stop Chelsea this year. They played a successful match by stopping them.

It was a shame Chelsea had to destroy my bet and I quite regret not taking out half of my winnings yesterday when the Cash Out option was issued because I thought Chelsea and Everton could score each other or at least Chelsea could beat Everton by scoring at least 2 goals because I know Chelsea is so strong this season and very productive it is a shame the match had to end goalless.

I think this season is the craziest season I have seen in terms of changes in positions in the standings that continue to occur every week. Even seeing Manchester City ranked 7th, Tottenham ranked 11th and Manchester United ranked 13th is really something that I never expected would happen this season. And what is even more surprising is that the clubs currently seen competing for the title are Chelsea and Liverpool. OK, Liverpool, that's normal. But seeing Chelsea have a rapid rise this season and even be able to have points above Arsenal is also a big surprise. And we can see that currently ranked 4th and 5th, it is not Tottenham or Aston Villa like last season. But there are Nottingham and Bournemouth, where these teams usually compete in the middle rankings and sometimes even rank close to the relegation zone. but now everything is starting to change. I love this season when it comes to fun. but to be honest I don't really like this season when it comes to my luck in predicting trades. It is difficult to predict even strong teams now when they face weak teams.

Mohamed Salah is enjoying his possible last matches for Liverpool and he shows his professionality even his future with them is uncertain. No confirmation of his new contract with Liverpool but even he leaves, the season will be a happy ending for him if Liverpool win Premeir League title in this season. Mohamed Salah is already a legendary player in Liverpool, and he is an important player in a squad and generation that helped Liverpool to win a first Premier League title after many decades, and also 1 Champions League title.

His amazing performances for Liverpool in this season puts him at a better condition in negotiation with Liverpool for a new contract. Liverpool will have to assess cost, risk and benefit if they sign a new contract with Salah and with a transfer of another younger player as a replacement for Salah. If they want to have like 2 or 3 more seasons with good contributions from Salah and perhaps titles, satisfying his demand and giving him a new good contract is acceptable.

Buying a new and younger player won't guarantee any good contribution and titles. It's risky, and with Salah, success means the club income will be stable in next some seasons.

Mo Salah was best player in Liverpool big win over Tottenham. He scored two goals and helped with another which was very important in getting three points. He plays well all time and that is big reason why Liverpool is doing so well this season.
Manchester United 3-0 loss to Bournemouth at Old Trafford is very worrying. Even though they had chances to score they could not do it. This loss is fourth for Manchester United coach Amorino. And definitely this result will put a lot of pressure on team to work together and play better.

In the news before their match against Aston Villa, Guardiola said that he had promised to restore his players to their best performance, besides that he also said that he would find a solution to overcome all these problems, there is still time for him to fix everything because in my opinion their decline from first place to now to 7th place in the standings is quite drastic and happened very quickly.

In addition, I saw a blog that said that Haaland bravely admitted that their decline in performance to be bad was his responsibility, with his own interview he said his disappointment and his desire to rise again, also he needs support now more than ever.
I think it's quite difficult for them to rise again even though they still have time.

Liverpool spectacular victory at Tottenham headquarters cannot be separated from the charming contribution of Mo Salah, he continues to show his fangs by scoring 2 goals and 1 assist, Liverpool is increasingly comfortable at the top of the standings. The management must make him stay at Anfield because he is a key player in Liverpool success this season.

Meanwhile, in another match, Man United had to swallow a crushing 3-0 defeat when hosting Bournemouth at Old Trafford, they were helpless in front of their supporters even though they had created several opportunities, this became Amorim 4th defeat as Man United coach.

It's his amazing contribution.

Mohamed Salah is making history in Liverpool and Premier League and he is a first player in Premier League who can have 10+ goals and 10+ assists before Christmas with 15 goals and 11 asssits now.

He also becomes a fourth best goal scorer for Liverpool in history and potentially can be a fourth best scorer in Premier League history soon. He already won the League best scorer three times and is going to win a fourth one. Mohamed Salah is a valuable asset of Liverpool but more than that, for Premier League too. With falling performances of Haaland, who score 10 goals in five matches but after that only have 3 more goals in next 12 matches, Salah has very good chance to win the League Best Scorer a fourth time.
