Now it's time for the Arsenal to have some improvement into their attack if they want to have better result otherwise things can go from bad to worse with in their last 7 games they have just one win and 2 draws which are clearly showing how they are losing their target and from these 7 games they score only 3 goals which are worst for the top team like Arsenal even they are having good control, but finishing is not good creativity is also not good which are important for them if they want to win better in coming weeks.

Now in coming weeks, their life could be tough with they need to act quickly, and they have no enough time for doing things which are needed frustration can bring more negativity which is never been good while you are fighting for the top spots into tough leagues hopefully this last lost against Liverpool could be turning point for them, and they will be overcome their problems.

We can say that Liverpool was quite lucky that they could have 2 goals. The first goal is an own goal made by Jakub Kiwior (Arsenal player). Another goal was made in the injury time (90+5'). If there is no own goal, Arsenal players may have a better chance to score goals. Luckily, Arsenal player made a mistake, the own goal happened, it dropped their mentality.

It may be not really important goal anymore but it make Liverpool to ensure their win. By scoring another goal, Liverpool didn't win the match by getting an own goal only. At least Liverpool could score 1 goal from their own players.

Arsenal basically didn't want that defeat and they have tried their best to win it. Liverpool were luckier in taking their chances than Arsenal, even if Arsenal had more big chances wasted. Of course this has a bad impact on Arsenal, but this defeat proves that Arsenal always have difficulty appearing higher than other teams.

Arsenal really need a winning mentality, they don't have it at the moment even though I think Arsenal have a good chance of winning. It's difficult to get results like that when the team's performance is quite good when starting the match, but what can you do, Arsenal failed with all their good chance. Arteta and everyone in the team are responsible for the defeat, so they have to get up and try to do better.

What a very good biography you've given Arsenal, though they are a good team, no doubt about that but the repeat of the mistakes they frequently make is what is getting me angry with them. In one of my past reviews of the club, as much as I gave them some praise, I also gave them some knocks and insisted that they could try but might still not be able to lift the cup this season. This is not because I don't want them to lift the cup but because I have carefully studied the Gunners, they always mess up when the ovation is loud for them, so I am not surprised with their recent performance, they always drop from the first spot. The feat they were supposed to maintain when they meet both big and lesser clubs, they will douse it and start trying harder later when opportunities have been missed in the past. Missed opportunities in soccer may not be regained if one is not careful which is why it is even good for them to be extra careful and prepare better when they face big clubs as the 3 points gained from a big team win is a stronger point closer to winning the tournament than winning the lesser team that it is almost certain that you will win.

This is very important even though it is the same point we are talking about, but the hurdles are not the same, and if maximised, it is an added advantage. The same thing was their issue last season, they will become hot at times and turn cold later, such will not help them to maintain good standing. FA apart because I knew that Liverpool would beat them, but you can imagine West Ham beating Arsenal 2 to no goal on their part, and Fulham almost replicate it if not for the early time goal by Saka. They should have played better having drawn Liverpool in an earlier match with them about 2 weeks ago. The same early-minute goal helped them against Liverpool as well. But instead of continuing to be ferocious with the attack, they will attack a little afterwards but defend more. This is certainly not working for them, they need to change and not praise the cooperation with the coach alone against what you said. The players should be up and doing and if it is about removing and adding in this transfer window, let Arteta do it. But I strongly doubt if any changes will have so much effect on the players even as I see not much issue other than the player needs more motivation or pressure as the case may be. The current guys played well initially, they can still do the same if better managed in my opinion.

Yeah mate my statement is just based on speculations and assumptions and nothing more than that,  because we have already multiple factors that may prevent that occurrence from happening and as the season goes going more or more limits may be placed on Manchester City that will prevent them from achieving that records of maintaining that position for multiple of time.

But also we can't outrightly write them off either since at the moment,  Manchester City is the defending champion and is more likely perceived as the closest club to the title since they hold the title currently.

I keep on wondering if Arsenal's performance will improve better than this way, as they played the entire game and were unable to score, but their opponents scored goals. I was hoping that Arsenal would pull off a fantastic comeback against Liverpool after losing to West Ham and Fulham, but after the game, I was really disappointed with their performance. They played well in the first half of the game, but they just didn't score, they lose their chances. Arsenal's current issue, in my opinion, is with the players. Gabriel Jesus had another injury yesterday, therefore Arteta needs to find a new striker, since they are already to become weak.



I think that Erling Haaland will still break the Premier League record this season. The reason why Mohamed Salah have the same number of goals with Haaland, because Haaland has been out of the squad for the past few weeks due to injury, which has given Salah the advantage to score more goals and have equal numbers with him. If Haaland return back to the squad, I believe he can still score more goals to win the golden boot. Haaland will be the highest goal scorer for Manchester City unlesshe pick up another injury.

Ok that is quite optimistic because I think that no team so far has ever won the treble twice in a row. Solely based on statistics I think that this statement is doomed to turn out to be wrong, but for as long as Manchester City is around and in the position to win all of the titles, there is nothing that speaks against them doing it. Whether they will, I don't know. But we can see that the competition in the Premier League has become incredibly tough and in the Champions League there are a couple of clubs that I think are on the same level as Manchester City. Definitely Real Madrid I think.

Huddersfield was a low tier club and it's all going to be a non sense thing if manchester city will not be able to win against huddersfield. Yeah that's amazing to see that so many key players were playing again like doku and de bruyne. Manchester city could use the secondary squad to win against it.
In fact, huddersfield was a very weak team and it will not be a hard opponent for manchester city to beat it. Manchester city is winning against huddersfield with 5 goals and it was getting perfect cleansheet today.
No doubt that since the gap between the king of UCL last season is too big compared to the huddersfield but it was good enough caused by hudders can still play against the strongest team in EU last season. It will be even better if bruyne will be back again.

Im not even doubting the performance of manchester city once it was coming to the knock out stage. City will always be on fire in this stage.

Of course, Liverpool is not the only one affected by this. Still, leaving the team at a time like this would be damaging for Liverpool, which is competing for the title. They need Salah to become champions. He's a fantastic striker. He also plays great on the wing. Frankly, it is a privilege to have it. I hope he returns soon.

What progress? I was not even seeing it as a progress. You won so many matches but you got nothing, what's difference with you lose and you got nothing? I took trophy as the main target by any team. I can't call that team was successful without even winning any trophiy.
This kinda weird to call that the performance from arsenal has made some progress. I saw that if there's no different compared to the last season. This club has no winning mentality and that's it. It doesn't even matter how much money spent by the club and the result will always be the same.

I am not even remotely surprised by the possibility of Arsenal ending yet another season without any trophies, as it has become a recurring pattern for the club's ownership to fail in achieving success in competitions. Arsenal's players must be ashame caused by they ran for nothing at the end of season.
Despite the absence of Salah, Liverpool played the match and faced constant pressure from Arsenal, who relentlessly pressed them from the very first minute. The club created numerous opportunities to score, but unfortunately, they were unable to convert any of them into goals. Liverpool was also missing salah and dijk.

I see the same arsenal compared to the last season. Let's talk about the fact that arsenal won so many games last season then it got nothing. I think the same scenario is going to happen again to the arsenal. I see this club is nothing compared other club like liverpool or city.

I was so impressed with the performance of Manchester City, Kevin De Bruyne is back with incredible thing, the club really missed him, his First game since August and Kevin De Bruyne has already give an assist, so many people that are saying that they can do without him it's a lie because Haaland really suffered his absent, I think Haaland should learn how to be creative because Kevin De Bruyne will not stay long like him so he have to stand on his feet to be creative, assuming he has that creativity and Kevin De Bruyne all together, no one can stand him in times of goals.

Haaland's 15 matches this season and the 14 goals he has scored I don't think it's too suitable to say that he is slumping because his performance is still very terrible with a very good goal scoring instinct. Indeed, there are some opportunities that sometimes make Haaland a little inconvenient to score goals but until now with the productivity he has I think he is still fine until now.

There are several reasons that make it sometimes difficult for him to score goals such as because of problems with the feet because at the beginning of the season until now there were several times Haaland could not play well because of problems with his feet. In addition, some situations that occur for Manchester City's midfield where when losing De Bruyne is one of the reasons he is a little inconvenient than before because De Bruyne's good supply is reduced so that the quality of Manchester City's attacks is also a little irregular which makes Haaland a little inconvenient with what happens in a match.

Arsenal was definitely in the pole position most of the time in that game, but it is still a game where all that counts are the goals. No goals, no win. But Liverpool played well with the means they had. It is never an easy game to play away from home against Arsenal these days as they have made tremendous progress themselves in the last two years. They compensated well for the absence of Salah, but it could be seen that he is missing big time. They will need him back as soon as possible. It's never good when the top striker is gone for a long time and this is quite a long time.

If we discuss the two clubs MU and Chelsea in the near future it seems quite difficult to win the title again or return to their glory days because they have to really go through a very long process and have to start from getting an experienced coach like for example MU or Chelsea can get coaches like Xabi and after that gave him the opportunity to bring in players who he thought could help the club return to strong form and after that had to get high quality players.
In this way, I am sure that these two clubs will soon return to their glory days, but this will not be easy to do because it really difficult to bring in a great coach because a great coach will also choose before accepting an offer, while the reputation of MU and chelsea considered to be slightly declining. and several times wanted to bring in experienced coaches but were always rejected.
With all this, we have to understand that the glory days can be achieved but we have to overcome many obstacles and if in next season erik Ten Hag is not fired, will definitely still be like this season.

Great players like De Bruyne always have a good impact in a game; his impact in yesterday's match shows that Manchester City will bounce back strong in the Premier League to keep their title challenge. Doku, Haaland, and Alverest will now start shining because the man that will feed them with passes is back, and Manchester City will now be the best team in the Premier League as they used to be because their main man, KDB, is back and fully fit.

The inability to convert domination into goals can indeed be a concern. Restructuring the team and signing a new striker are the needs now. Arteta has been failing his plan with the signing of Jesus and Havert who performed way under expectation. Restructuring and strategic player acquisitions are potential solutions to address performance issues.

Arsenal's recent performances were discouraging that makes Arteta needs to make tough decisions, and Arteta will likely be evaluating the team's strategy and composition. They need to make positive adjustments moving forward to bring better results for the team and its supporters.

It's too far to analyze Chelsea's future journey because what needs to be done this season is they have to be able to break into the top five positions even though it is difficult because they are far behind the other teams in the top five positions. Pochettino is still quite bad at handling Chelsea because they don't play consistently and they even lose when facing teams that are far below their quality. If Chelsea do not make changes, it will be very difficult for them to catch the top five positions and if they wait for the process then Chelsea will lose the opportunity to qualify for the Champions League and Europa League next season.

In the FA Cup they managed to seal victory against Preston with a quite promising victory even though the opponents they faced were much easier. Only Arsenal suffered defeat against Liverpool in a fairly fierce match. Even though Arsenal were able to control the game, Jurgen Klopp's men managed to win by two goals in the match.

Jeremy Doku is one of the best signing for Manchester City because ever since the guy started playing for Manchester City there has been so much improvement on that position, although he doesn't score much but he is a very creative player that always creates a scoring opportunities for Manchester City. Also phil Foden is a very talented and consistent player I have ever seen in Manchester City because his performance is exceptional and there is no match that he doesn't play well, he is always very tactical and knows what to do at every moment, I honestly enjoy watching the guy because he is very impressive.

De Bruyne made a great return by the way. He entered the game in the 57th minute of their FA Cup game and it took him only 17 minutes to make an assist to Doku.    It was a really lovely assist as well. This is great news for Manchester City as the games which De Bruyne is a part of are much more winnable for them.

From now on I expect to see him in their next Premier League games as well. I don't know if he would be in the starting eleven right away in their next league game. But in a short time at worst he would take his place back there for sure.

Yes indeed, the reality is that Arsenal do not have a striker who is consistent in scoring goals and in fact, so far this season Arsenal's top scorer is owned by Bukayo Saka who only plays as a midfielder. After all, Arsenal forwards such as Gabriel Jesus, Eddie Nketiah and Leandro Trossard also do not have a good goal record and therefore, it is natural that Arsenal still need better forwards.

But regarding the decline in position and performance experienced by Arsenal at this moment, I think it is a common result and usually experienced by Arsenal in the second half of the season. Because after all, from season to season very often Arsenal fail to maintain their performance. Therefore, then I cannot blame only about the forward players because yes, basically Arsenal have still failed to maintain their top position in the Premier League standings in recent seasons.
