I do and why not? They're hardly predicted, and has no found good solution to fix their problem. They were pretty good in the first half against United, but crap in the second half. Unbelievable to see them turned into crap in matter of minutes after Nunez did stupid foul to Amad. They deserved to lose.

Their performance has not yet stable. They are possible to get another lose in the upcoming fixtures. Even Pep so damn frustrated by seeing the way his team playing. It takes longer than you think to fix his squad.

You know football is full surprises, the way Manchester United won that match, nobody expected because everyone could see that Manchester City already was leading with one goal in the 37 minutes but Manchester United were given Penalty and that weakens Manchester City and they didn't push hard in the second half hoping it's wither they add a goal or they finish in draw but Diallo said No and was quick on that one last goal that break the camel toe.

If I'm ask about anything concerning Manchester City, I don't know precisely what to give them as answer but what I know is other teams has master how Manchester City has been dominating them in the last 4 years and it's no longer working again, they have master their games so it's easy to counter their attack and defense and unless Guardiola brings another strategy, the team will continue to underperformed, and the more they becomes object of discussion as failure.

yeah Chelsea is very unpredictable and very unstable team in the premier league this season . I think all of the top team are not sure to win against Chelsea but only Four team this season is making has place in the top four is Liverpool , Arsenal , Manchester united , and Chelsea . that's my predication for the premier league top four this season . and one thing Chelsea will give tough time to most of the top team this season note my predication .

You are right friend, in essence the poor performance experienced by Manchester City at the moment is caused by Pep's overconfidence. So without realizing it, the great squad they had in the previous season, currently can't do much in the English league or in the UCL. It's not because Manchester City's current players are weak, but in essence the other teams that compete with Manchester City have become stronger. That's why Manchester City has been rendered helpless this season. Apart from that, what is most regrettable is that in the last summer transfer market, Manchester sold several potential players that it had, for example Julian Alvarez. I personally was quite surprised when I found out that Julian Alvarez had been sold by Manchester City to Atletico Madrid. Even though Julian Alvarez is a truly great player and has enormous potential. But Pep seems to think that Julian Alvarez is not important, because maybe Pep feels that Manchester City still has Halland.

However, in reality, currently Halland is playing less than optimally at Manchester City. Meanwhile, Julian Alvarez can be said to have played quite well at Atletico Madrid. Therefore, I personally am really surprised by this decision made by Pep. Maybe now Pep is aware of the mistake he made, but still this will not have a significant effect if for example Pep starts improving Manchester City again at this time. Because in my personal opinion Pep seems to be having a little difficulty breaking the deadlock that Manchester City currently has. Because in essence, the style of play created by Pep at Manchester City seems to have now been read by the opposing team. So in every match Manchester City really has quite a difficult time.

To me, Liverpool was the clear favorite as of when they never lost a game but since losing came into existence the Reds started dropping that force of pushing opponents back and they hardly play that fast game, they became a bit slow. The EPL title can only be won if a particular team refuses to lose points, having a draw gives that team a hope of getting it right in the next game and as for the Gunners I don't think they can maintain the way they have been playing, they always have a way of letting the fans to be hopefull and is like the fans are only going to see them win the title before they can be fully relax.

Yes, Liverpool have high chances of winning those matches, but the truth is that anything can happen in football. So, I will not say that Liverpool will win those games easily because they are facing big teams. Despite these teams being inconsistent, Manchester United are just picking up form, and it is possible that they may have a chance to draw the game.

Out of these three games, in my view, it is not going to be easy matches. Tottenham and Nottingham Forest are unpredictable sometimes, especially Nottingham Forest. They always give Liverpool a tough time and can win against Liverpool either at home or away. So, anything can happen against the three teams you have mentioned.

Only Nottingham Forest can be an easy opponent for Chelsea, but this team actually made many big surprise in this season, and it won't be shock if they do something amazing against Chelsea.

Manchester United and Tottenham have their problems but they have good players, and if in a match their players can play together well, they can challenge Chelsea considerably. I consider both Tottenham and Manchester United have more potential to get points from Chelsea, than Nottingham Forest. I agree that Manchester United and Tottenham are very unstable and unpredictable in their performances but in a big match, they will play with more pride of a big club and their players can tighten their bond and create kind of challenge against Chelsea.

Chelsea might still top the league and it may not take longer time as you have said one thing you should know is that football can be unpredictable it might be that Liverpool may loss 2 straight matches while Chelsea wins more other two to top the league with 1 point I don't see Liverpool toping Chelsea with 5 point as a big deal besides they haven't even won their outstanding game had it been the point Liverpool is toping Chelsea with is may be like 10 points then that is when you would have use the word longer time. More over we shouldn't underrate Tothenham, westham, Leicester, and Nottingham forest did you also know that Nottingham forest has won all the big team in the English premier league, Chelsea are doing well this season I believe they are strong tittle contenders I won't be surprised if Chelsea wins the English premier league tittle.

They can comfortably win three of those matches especially Tottenham, Manchester United and Nottingham which will be a very easy one for them, reason being that they will not allow a small team like that to beat them home and away, having lost first leg to them. You may argue that Tottenham will be difficult for them to win but that is not correct because Tottenham is very inconsistent, sometimes strong and most times weak. Liverpool will comfortably put them in their place and continue their lead of the table.

With Manchester City's bad situation lately, then for the next match even though Manchester City will play away against Aston Villa, ofcourse it will be a difficult match and there is no guarantee for Manchester City to win. But at least,  even though Manchester City has a series of bad results, in reality Manchester City still has a very bigchance to be able to return to the top four  by overtaking Nottingham because they only have a one-point gap. With the hope of returning to the top four, then I personally believe that Pep Guardiola will really do his best to be able to make Manchester City to get  good results for their  next match.

getting to the first position at one point even before the start of the second leg is not a big achievement that even if Chelsea manage to get to should be celebrated even if we know that it takes a lot of work to get that done but recall that man city have been their but at the moment they are currently struggling in the league. against these three teams that are lined up for Liverpool, it's going to be tough for them to win all three or even win two which makes it look like Chelsea will make it to the top of the table in few games from now but for a team that has come this far, there aim should be to work on toping the league and remaining top on the league. doing that is the real deal and for now, the Chelsea team doesn't look like one that is ready to do that.

he has already planned it out and if they eventually start toping the league, let us see what excuse he will be giving to support his claim that they are not in the title race.

Without us realizing, Chelsea is getting closer to the top of the standings, all thanks to Enzo Maresca's intelligence. He managed to suddenly bring Chelsea to become a title contender, even since the beginning of the season no one predicted Chelsea would be like this. In fact, all Chelsea players have transformed to be more productive in breaking into the opponent's goal.

Chelsea's collective game this season is very good even though individually they are mediocre when compared to big stars like Salah, KDB, Rodri, etc. But that's where the advantage is because the difference between the main players and the reserves is the same, so they are like a team with the breath of a tireless horse because rotation will not have much effect.

The analysis as you conveyed is very true, if you look at the next five matches for the two opposing teams that Liverpool must face, they are much stronger than Chelsea. So Chelsea has the opportunity to overtake Liverpool, especially if the team that usually only relies on core players when entering a busy schedule like boxing day immediately slumps.

My belief in Chelsea is likely to overtake Liverpool because Chelsea is a club full of surprises. When they were the underdogs to win the title, they came out on top. If you look at the 2012 UCL, 2017 EPL, and 2021 UCL, it's proof that when Chelsea fought, they were able to win the prestigious title.

Regardless of the fact that Chelsea has almost covered the gap between them and Liverpool but i still think that it may take a longer time before Chelsea might get the opportunity to top the table because Liverpool has an outstanding game to play which if they win it, they will literally be topping Chelsea with 5 points and in Liverpool's next 5 matches, the only game that will give them headache is against Manchester united but for their matches against Tottenham, Westham, Leicester and Nottingham forest, all will be a win for Liverpool. I know some persons will be asking about Nottingham Forest due to the fact that they won Liverpool at Anfield in their first meeting but i don't see their returning leg against Liverpool as a threat anymore.

Chelsea actually needs to be determined to keep pushing and chasing Liverpool so that any mistakes from Liverpool, they can take advantage and top the table. I know Enzo Maresca to be a very dogged coach, the only thing that can affect Chelsea's performance now is when key players get injured and ruled out of some matches otherwise nothing can stop Chelsea's resilience right now.

The issue of Manchester city is becoming a serious challenge for them. In fact a lot of people are already thinking that they might come out of this challenge this season and it is very much possible because they have been struggling seriously in this season. I have seen a lot of condemnation about Manchester city but I don't really care since they are my favorite and them losing against Manchester United. It's normal. That is why we call it football. You cannot always get exactly what you want. The odds  would've definitely change by that particular time because the odds during the ending or the middle is always different from when the game is about to start so it is better to make a quick decision when you're making a prediction in case like this, I know a lot of people who want to go for Manchester city winning Manchester United but the long run The game eventually changed in the favor of Manchester United.

As it will continue... recovering the club is not easy maybe Pep Guardiola is now under heavy pressure because of 10x games 1x win.

Exactly who is betting on the last second? I don't think many people would have expected this to happen... but that's how bad City were to be beaten by United in such a short space of time and this was for them at home.

Those who bet on Man United with 50x odds are really big.

They are not going to be continuing losing games but will certainly win some, but unlike the past where this current 9 points gap can be flipped by Manchester city I don’t see them doing that this season because even as we give excuses of players out injured as the reason for their loss I still think with everyone available they will still struggle to win matches we are used to seeing teams dominating a league and later they suffer fatigue and they lost confidence that’s the position where Manchester City are at the moment. They can simply challenge for the top four finish but they league seems outstretched for them now.

The game against Manchester United, Manchester United were already given 4 odds to win from the start of the match so with the score line against them at around 80 minutes I will definitely say the odds will be over 40 or even 50 self because when last did they pull a come back against teams like city

For me the Bournemouth vs West Ham match was quite interesting because both teams played aggressively and created some good chances, maybe it's just that no one scored until the 86th minute so it was a bit boring, but both teams played very well. West Ham was lucky to score earlier than Bournemouth because they got a penalty, and I was more impressed with the goal created by Bournemouth and it was a cool long-range free kick goal created by Cherries Enes Unal in the final minutes of the match which made the score 1-1.

In the next match Bournemouth will face Manchester United at Old Trafford, and of course this will be an interesting match.

If we look at their schedule, indeed Liverpool has a more difficult schedule against a team that is in good form, but actually if we look at the opponents owned by Chelsea are also not easy opponents, we can see how currently Fulham, Bournemouth and Crystal Palace are actually able to make the big team lose points when facing them, so it seems that it is still difficult for Chelsea to achieved the full 3 points and be able to coup the position of Liverpool in the next 5 matches.

Chelsea do have the opportunity to cut the distance with Liverpool, but for them to take Liverpool position it seems like it will be difficult to happen, because victory in football is strongly influenced by performance on the field and not on paper in my opinion

Tourmalet around Xmas period is one of most challenging time for all clubs in Premier League. Many matches within very short time, and players have to play more matches than usual during same period, and have less time for recovery. It increases risk of injury for players and it's unfair for them too because players in other domestic leagues simply enjoy their holidays around Xmas and New Year.

Liverpool with their new coach since this season beginning, Arne Slot who has his first season in Premier League, will have sort of troubles in this Tourmalet. This period can be chance for Chelsea and other clubs to reduce point differences with Liverpool. Liverpool possibly will lose points but other competitors of Liverpool must to maximize their points in coming matches. If they can not do that, any lost point from Liverpool won't help them anything.

The Xmas period always comes with a very busy schedule in the English Premier League and while some big teams are favoured their are some that have to go toe to toe with tough opponents consecutively just like it's happened to Liverpool currently, they're in great form no doubt, currently the best in the league to doubt but the busy schedule could see them decline on the table especially if they encounter any injury in any of those match, Tottenham and Manchester United are going to be tough especially United cause they're strong rivals of Liverpool but i think Nottingham Forest is not going to be very easy to play against cause they tend to be very aggressive when playing against big teams. Well, Liverpool's busy schedule might turn out to be a blessing and big opportunity for Chelsea to top the league, however i can't wait to see how Arne Slot handles his upcoming schedules.
