It's no longer a derby, but just an ordinary match between a tough team vs weak team, so we already know who will win and who will lose. Manchester United will play without Hojlund, so it means they're become weaker, probably right now they're have a same strength like Luton Town.

In the upcoming week, there's no exciting match because all of them are big teams vs small teams.

England football expert Gary Alexander Neville believes that the Manchester United management has already reached a decision regarding the future of coach Ten Hag. We probably won't see Ten Hag back with Manchester United next season. However, it is not yet known who the Manchester United management will choose as an alternative to ten Hag. Zizou, aka ZInedine Zidan, is no longer the coach of any team. Would Zidan be interested in becoming United's coach if Manchester United offered Zidan the management offer? What do you thik about this?

Yes it is a derby match and it's going to be epic. But if Liverpool fans are hoping on Manchester United to do any magic for them when Manchester United play Manchester City this weekend, I think they are counting on a dead horse. Manchester City will want to maintain their bragging right over the red devil's, so they will give their best to win that game with a good margin. Moreover it is a crucial time of the season and pep understand that losing to Manchester United will be a big blow to their quest of winning the EPL this season. I don't think Manchester United have a chance this weekend of taking a point out of the match.

Manchester City next match will be against Luton so I think Manchester City are on the wining side because the kind of quality players they have there is no way they will not win the match and also Luton on the other hand is one of the weakest team on this season because right now there current position is not encouraging because they are still trying to remove themselves from the relegation zone and if Manchester city wins them on that match it will make there chances of escaping from the relegation more difficult. So if Manchester City win the match they will move to the first position of the table because there points and Liverpool are very close so if Liverpool lose any matches there hope of wining the league will be left hanging.

Its not really crucial match for Manchester City, I don't think have quit well performance with Manchester United after losing from Fulham and United current performance is very bad and Manchester derby right now have significant difference since leaving by Sir Alex Ferguson. Under Pep Guardiola era, Manchester City always dominance in derby match and right now Manchester is blue not red any more after decreasing performance with Manchester United difficult keep in the tittle race and have many manger sacked but Manchester United is always weakness opponent for Manchester City.

For upcoming match in Premier League likely all top fourth teams not get much problem for securing three points, Manchester City vs Man United actually will easy for The Citizen. Liverpool seems easily get three points from Nott Forest, Arsenal will face Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa will continue the winning performance against Luton Town.

Theorically, what you said above was a sense thing but the fact showed the opposite thing. Rashford became so wasteful combined with a bad goal keeper which is always standing when the opponent was shoot the ball to go to the back on the net. This team is so crazy. Too many inconsistent players.
That's embarrassing result for manchester united. it reminds me when MU was missing casemiro and it made MU performed so badly and that story is repeating again now after hojlund injured then MU is having poor performance again. The lost against fulham is burderning the management and ten hag itself regarding his future on the club.

We are not experiencing unstable performance from manchester united but i will tell you now if manchester united will do some things. It will be selling so many players and surprisingly antony has included into the list or players to be sold.

here's the reports:

Mu seems wanna try to overhaul the club. To be honest, the lost against fulham might give snowball effect not only for the players but for the ten hag itself. It likes what already said by garry nevilla on skysports

https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/gary-neville-sir-jim-ratcliffe-man-utd-decision-erik-ten-hag-future/blt9705fb73124e9381

I think that that what neville said about the future of ten hag is true caused by the latest news reported that if MU has intrest to sign SIMEONE INZAGHI from intermilan.

If compared to last season, it can be said that Manchester United failed to perform better this season regardless of what Ten Hag did in the transfer market, but what happened this season is far from management's target.

Now it has been proven that the Manchester United team is not making better progress, so Ten Hag is considered a failure and he should not be able to be retained anymore because if management continues to force Ten Hag then the Manchester United team will not develop.

As for the possibility of Manchester United finishing in the top 4 this season, I think it is very difficult, firstly they are far behind and secondly, in terms of performance, it is impossible for Manchester United to be consistent in order to catch up with them.

To demand more from Manchester United, you first need to rebuild the team. Ten Hag brought a lot of young players who are simply not capable of fighting for victory in the Premier League, they have no experience. In my opinion, everything is clear here, eight points to Aston Villa, and no matter how much they would like it, they will not be able to finish the season in the top 4, it is quite possible that Manchester United will even be left without European cups this season.

And I don’t know if it makes sense to keep Ten Hag in the team, he’s not a bad coach, but his methods are clearly not suitable for winning the Premier League.

We currently have these two Manchester United and West Ham as worst teams in top most defeats and both are also only teams which are having goals tally in 0 and - which is surely shameful for them and with their performance I have feeling most chances they could be now out of the UEFA connections because their performance is surely not deserve their places into these events even in last game West Ham done good job but still we can't give them any chance for having better result in coming game against Everton which is now also having better performance and spot as well after cut of deduction points.

Brentford is surely another team which having worst ever performance as now they are in last five and their chances for the survival are still good, but their performance in last few games not deserve their place into Premier League, hopefully they will do something improved in coming games.

For me this derby lost it's quality and importance about 4 seasons ago, is no longer interesting as it used to be where we see both teams struggling to get that dominance, you see that pride on the faces of both teams, this time we see a one sided play with Manchester City dominating the game from the kick off till full time, is not fun to always watch except for those who only want to see Man UTD lose again.
Well, this encounter has so much at stake with Liverpool and Arsenal waiting to see the unexpected to happen like City dropping point to reduce the pressure or maybe remove the Citizens from the title race.
To me Manchester United are not capable of getting the job done for Liverpool and Arsenal because they (United) have not gotten their house in order and this game won't be an easy one, we just have to see another humiliation if they (Manchester United) don't play as a unit.

Manchester City upcoming games are crucial, with their next five matches potentially determining the rest of their season. This is a very difficult challenge, testing their strength against some strong opponents. Dropping points could have a significant impact on their title defence. Brighton might be considered an easy opponent, Liverpool and Arsenal are direct competitors for the title, while the competition with Manchester United cannot be underestimated. Nevertheless, Manchester City have proven to retain their main strengths from last season, and they have the potential to repeat their success.

Similar pressure also applied to Liverpool and Arsenal during this period, and both teams also had ambitions to win trophies. Jurgen Klopp, who is leaving Liverpool at the end of the season, could use that as motivation for his team. Meanwhile Arteta, who has built a deeper squad, is looking to avoid a repeat of dropping points as the season draws to a close. Every team competes to get additional points, I am sure Pep Guardiola has a strategy to overcome this obstacle and wants to repeat last season success.

Derby matches always have their importance and as a Liverpool fan, we will always want Man U to be dominant from starting and put some pressure on Pep players. You do not disagree with the Man City team their potential and their skills and as a football enthusiast, you must say the game should be at its best no matter who wins and who loses.

In my opinion, losing this match was very embarrassing for Manchester United, and they should have won this match, because this match took place at home, this should be a big advantage for Manchester United. Moreover, the opponents they faced were not too difficult, this could all be seen from their game, Manchester United was superior to Fulham and Manchester United carried out many attacks on Fulham's goal. However, unfortunately the Manchester United attackers were unable to take advantage of the opportunities that occurred properly so they failed to score a goal. Erik ten Hag should look for a replacement for Garnacho and Rashford, because I see that these two players do not make a good contribution in every match. If this continues, I am sure that in the future Manchester United will perform badly from their attack line.

It's the same with Manchester City because they also showed slightly stronger strength than at the start of the season when several of their main players were injured. The presence of a creative midfield provides a way for Manchester City to catch up one point behind Liverpool and I think the opportunity to win the Premier League is still quite open for both teams at this time. In the next few weeks the two will meet and whoever is able to win the match will be at the top of the standings and if the match ends in a draw then Arsenal will benefit.

The race for the English League title is still quite competitive because the three teams at the top of the standings have a fairly close point difference. Both Liverpool, Manchester City and Arsenal still have a chance as long as all three can play consistently to win. It is still quite difficult to predict who will come out as champions of the English League this season, but if you look at the strength of the team, I prefer Manchester City compared to Liverpool.

The twist is that City trail Liverpool and are just one point ahead of Arsenal after the easy part of the second half of the tournament. City has games ahead with: United, Liverpool, Brighton, Arsenal, Aston Villa. A very tough series and I think that the fate of the title will be decided here. If City lose a lot of points here they will lose the title. In a personal meeting with Liverpool or Arsenal, defeat will also be equivalent to losing the title.

You're right, I don't think Liverpool will be able to hold onto the top spot in the standings with the players they have available, if their injured players don't return in a few weeks. Manchester city currently with 59 points, Manchester City and Liverpool are separated with one point, which is not safety for Liverpool. However, it's not as though they can only lose their position to Manchester City, if Liverpool lose any of their games, Arsenal will pass them in the standings. We all know how strong Arsenal is right now they can defeat any Premier League team. I think Klopp should hope that Mohamed Salah with the other key players can return as soon as possible. Because their absence will effect their performance.


Yesterday's victory over Brentford was fantastic. Though West Ham has been playing well this season, but seems they have been weak in the past weeks. I was even doubting their strength to defeat Brentford due to their poor performance in their previous games, because even though Brentford is still in the 16th position they are not that weak. The home victory for West Ham has really surprise me. Jarrod Bowen scored a hat trick, Brentford's performance went below of my expectations.

Brentford having humiliated defeat against West Ham in this last game with this now they are at the 16th spot and chances are high for them to stay here or slip more in coming days because currently their performance is one of the worst in Premier League with their defense is also currently worst which already conceded 26 goals with 8 defeats even for me, they have few chances for the survival but still they needed improvement which allow them for having positivity into their coming games.

Conceding 4 goals from the another struggling West Ham is surely big trouble for them and their defenders are having too many mistakes in last few games which are surely needs to be fixed before it's too late because now we have few games, and they could be in deep trouble if not having anything improve.

In a football match, result is all, if you can score goals to win it or create enough pressure to force your opponent players to make mistakes and conceded goals, you succeed and are the winner. If you dominate the match, has high ball possession but fail to score goal, you will get a draw but worse, let the opponent to beat you from a counter attack.

Liverpool generally played and deserved to win Carabao Cup but Chelsea have reasons to think they deserved more. It's part of fact and shows their potentiality to be a stronger team and they can move forwards with this motivation but most important, must improve themselves more.

More accurate shots, more calm mental to make proper decisions and avoid mistakes. They have star players and young players who can grow up more and contribute more for them in next several seasons.

I also saw that Brentford played very well in this match and overall, if you look at the match statistics, it was Brentford who played much more optimally than the West HAM squad.
In terms of ball control on the field, Brentford was more skilled and consistent in managing the rhythm of the game and not only that, Brentford fired many shots towards goal, but the West HAM defense squad was not easily knocked down.
And I also saw that the cooperation between the players in this match was very good, they remained disciplined in establishing collaborative communication by frequently passing the ball between players, this was good effort and cooperation to be able to score goals towards the opponent's goal. target. .

However, in this match, luck was on West Ham's side with the victory they achieved with a score of 4-2 playing at home, which is certainly a matter of pride for all fans and especially the West Ham team.
And indeed I believe that playing at home is one of the factors in the success and luck of a football team. because when playing at home the players are very enthusiastic about playing and try to show a good performance from each individual player.
Not only that, by playing at home their goal is to achieve as much victory as possible so as not to disappoint the supporters who are watching in the stadium at that time.
And this is well proven that West Ham is able to play well and there is no doubt that West Ham is one of the best clubs at the moment because their team was able to add more points and move up to 8th in the current standings.
It was a truly balanced match between the West Ham squad and Brentford who were equally tough and showed each other a very good game.

Actually I think otherwise, this Liverpool team playing pattern makes them a formidable foe to any team regardless of how many players that are injured in their team,  I believe that this Liverpool team will be able to grind out more results till  most of their top player will return from injury.

Secondly, another thing that got me really impressed is the leadership of virgil van dijk in this Liverpool team, and his experience have really been helpful to this team, so I don't really think that they can't compete due to injuries, because they proved against Chelsea that they can.
