Lolz, I actually read people's comments on Manchester united and I can't help but laugh, seeing that the majority that were all praises for Amorim's first victory on a few games as he resumed as the new Manchester united coach, everyone did think that with Amorim, all will become bed of roses for Manchester united, forgetting that even roses have torns.

I am personally not surprised with the current outcome of matches for man united, this is something I expected, and right from time, I've always been of the opinion that we give Amorim time before we start celebrating him, it was too early to celebrate him when he came, and won (I think) 4 games in a row, it is rare to find a coach who just resumes in a club, and already blends with the players, except the coach was a player before he was promoted to the level of a coach.

Manchester united will do well, but they need time, the new coach need time to properly fix the errors of the previous coach, until things are properly done, Manchester united will continue to through zig zag performance in games.

Expectations from Amorim were high, since Manchester United were not playing football at a good level anyway, we could say that they had a good start even if they won a few matches. But if we are watching a team that has won only 1 victory in the last 5 matches, it means there is a problem in the team. The harmony between the players and the coach is very important here, I think there is a problem with this right now.
When I look at the matches Manchester United lost, I feel sorry for them. Unfortunately, they lost points in matches that were not very difficult to win

There is only one match today,

• West Ham vs Wolves

In H2H, West Ham is superior and even the bookie is also more favored West Ham as the winner in this match. Because compared to Wolves, West Ham is much better at this time in the top 14 in the standings. Although unstable performance, but as a host is very easy to get 3 points.
This is a good opportunity to get odds @1.87

This particular issue was discussed even before the league kicked off as they were in link with the Nigerian born striker victor osimhen but due to one or two reasons arsenal are known for they couldn't meet up with the deal and we all know the impact that osimhen would have brought to this club seeing how well he adapts to all football style around the world and Galatasaray is an evidence of how well he does adapts.

Well, football seasons is like a circle for all the clubs involved, and every one of this clubs get to get to their own turn of the circle.
We can see that tables have shifted very fast, and clubs that were to top performers in the last two seasons of the premier league all seem to be struggling to keep up at the moment in this season, while other clubs that were performing very bad in the last two seasons are mostly climbing to the top in this season.

Chelsea's has always been a good football team, but then in the previous seasons, they lacked good coach training, perhaps, this is what affected their performance in the last seasons, coming back to this season, there is a great and noticeable improvement, they are now the number 2 in the league table, beating out top clubs like Arsenal and Manchester city, Aston Villa and Tottenham.
Congratulations to them, and Liverpool should actually watch out, lest, they might end up losing their number one position to Chelsea.

Actually under Amorim's tutelage there is an improvement in the Manchester United squad, their strikers are starting to score goals whether it's Hojlund or Zirkzee. talking about the match against Forest what is questionable is why Amorim played Yoro as the main starter in that match, it doesn't mean I'm saying he's not competent. but he has just recovered, it takes time to adjust on the field. moreover they actually still have other players who are more ready as their starting eleven. even so, Manchester United is actually starting a new phase under Amorim's tutelage, this is different from previous coaches. not much better indeed, because Amorim has just handled this team. apart from all that, at least Amorim also has progress to bring United to the real level. it takes time for him, especially since he still hasn't determined the ideal starting eleven. the second defeat in the Premier League should have made Amorim aware, especially to improve his team's strength both in the defense sector and other lines. for now I am sure Amorim is not thinking about looking for new arrivals that he will bring in later, because his focus should be on the available players especially to rebuild the foundation of Manchester United. the point is, Amorim is in the process of rebuilding Manchester United with his style and philosophy. so, it takes patience to see Manchester United reach its highest level again.

However, Tottenham is also not in good condition. The last 3 matches are not in their favor. While Chelsea is currently more confident with their better team strength.
Not only for the Premier League competition, I think Chelsea will be the strongest candidate for the Europa Conference League champion. Next season I hope Chelsea with their good performance can be maintained in the Champions League.

Chelsea is really lucky after being coached by Enzo Maresca this season even though Enzo Maresca is still a new coach at Chelsea this season but he has been able to make Chelsea stronger in terms of appearance and competitiveness in the Premier League. I also really didn't expect Chelsea to be able to make a comeback quite epic in the match, even though in the first half Chelsea were two goals behind in the first twelve minutes when the match had started. But I was really surprised when in the second half Chelsea was able to add three more goals after one goal from Sancho in the seventeenth minute of the first half. So it really has shown that Chelsea are a team that their rivals should be wary of this season.

We all know Enzo maresca keeps saying they are not in the title race and even his players keep saying they are not in the title race, they just want to keep on winning and picking up points but from the comeback yesterday against Tottenham I think they are in that title race, what more is needed from a team that is challenging for the title. Chelsea are now four points behind Liverpool with Liverpool having a derby in hand to play. I think Enzo maresca knows exactly what he his doing, he knows the boys are young and with that title challenging pressure they might lose what he his trying to build.

There is one thing about this Chelsea team that they are doing better than any other team right now, they are creating a lot of chances, like it so easy for Chelsea to create chances, if they had taken most of their chances yesterday probably they would have scored 7 or 8 and it not just in yesterday’s Match it every match so I will say good job Enzo maresca.


Chelsea fixtures this December are against the bottom half teams on the table, it only brentford who isn’t in the bottom half and they play brentford this weekend at the bridge. With the way they are playing now I don’t see brentford stopping them. Chelsea might still probably score four or more. Enzo maresca is going to cause a lot of problems in English football. The blues have finally got it right.

There will be interest in this match and I can easily say that Chelsea will win this match. This is because Chelsea have a good record and are strong.  If you look at Tottenham, for one thing they are weak and their record shows less wins and more defeats. Something like this will be seen in this match too but there will be a difference in the score that Chelsea can score more or less goals and also Tottenham can win the match by scoring goals but it doesn't seem like that from their record. But I don't think Chelsea will give Tottenham a chance to win this match and decrease their points because Chelsea are also in a good position at the moment and they are working hard to go up. This includes their hard work and good performance which makes many people believe in them and watch and bet on the match.

It is true, Arsenal do not have a sharp center forward, Gabriel Jesus is not enough to support their needs. Kai Harvertz is also not a pure center forward, Arteta should have recruited a better striker in the last transfer market. Arsenal problems regarding rotation options last season may have been resolved this season, but I think Arteta has not found a solution for the striker we mean. It seems that Arteta will rely on the available players until the end, because basically Arsenal is not a club that dares to shop for players extravagantly.

To be frank, Fulham didn't really play anything interesting when the second half began because during the first, they noticably gave Arsenal a tough time and the fact that they were able to get an early goal was proof of how hungry they was. Although majority of the goal was attributed to a poor defensive error from the Gunners but still, it was enough to put them off their balance.
 Right now, Arsenal sit third on the standings while Chelsea are placed second thanks to their win to Tottenham and I feel the Gunners would have had a chance to be at their spot had they been able to win Fulham

Amorim's perfect winning record in Portugal was shattered. This is the second defeat in Amorim's first 3 matches. I think Amorim is still in the process of being adjusted. The pressure of the game is also different so I understand him for a while now. The level of the game of Portugal and England is certainly different so I think he will need time. So I'm sure if he has a player with the type he wants it will make Man United's game even better.

Cucurella threw his shoes in the trash after making a blunder because he could not control the ball because his shoes did not fit properly, causing him to slip and replaced them with new bluish green shoes. And after his shoes were replaced with new shoes, he performed better and was able to defend on Chelsea's left side more strongly, in my opinion he is an agile player and also does not get tired easily to stop the opposing team and Enzo Maresca did not replace him because he knew that he was a reliable player in defense and the mistake did not mean that he played badly.

Everyone talks about new players, but isn't that what Ten Hag tried to do? He changed Manchester United, during his time as manager he brought in more than 10 players, I don't remember the exact number, and now we expect the same from Amorim, who will bring in other players and let's hope that this time everything will work out the way the manager wants. I agree that Ten Hag made a lot of mistakes with transfers, and now it affects the team's results, but if Amorim continues to lose, it may change the attitude towards him.

I am surprised how fast the new system and coach is working out in just a few months, there was no doubt that Chelsea had quality players and was just waiting for the perfect coach to bring out the best in them. Enzo Maresca came in and surprised us all, when he started people doubted him and the team was so unbalanced and shaky, they made lots of mistakes that led to goal but one thing the coach did that i like was that he trusted the players despite the mistakes he didn’t panic and didn’t put pressure on the players, he let people  know that they are not in a rush at all and it’s a gradual process. The funny coach said they are not in the title race despite being second in the league and that is helping not to put pressure of winning the league on the players.

The comeback was incredible and it will definitely boost up the confidence of the players.

Seeing a new era of competition in the league is very exciting because it seems Guardiola’s domination period is slowly going to an end and Slot and Maresca looks promising to take over but they need to be consistent about their performances so just having a streak of wins doesn’t mean anything until they do it consistently for couple of years.

It is difficult for a coach to join a team and just start winning games especially when they join when the season is ongoing, he should have waited till after the end of the season before joining because of the pressure. Now he has joined and didn’t have much time to know his players and work with them properly so i think he needs time but can he handle the pressure and not let all the losses get to his head? If he can then i believe in coming season he will perform better.

I can still understand Manchester United's defeat in this match and do not blame Amorim because I know being him is not easy and the players that Man United have are very different from the players he built at Sporting so he still needs time to be able to make the Man United club perform optimally, as many people have said here that Amorim has a lot of homework so since he was appointed and agreed to be a manager he must be ready for all conditions of Man United and be responsible for whatever happens.

Disagreed. I see no reson to replace Cucurella. He was so sloppy in that game, slips two times, yes, but he played very solid after he changed his shooes. It's all due to the his garbage shoes. I think it would not happen to him if he was using the right shoes.

Mount was a washed player, and he's so garbage. No more him in our squad, he's terrible.

We have felix who also often created chances for us, why do we need to bring someone who played terribly in our competitor? No way!

Yes, maybe that is one of the many reasons why Amorim has not been able to bring Manchester United to win consistently. But for now he must maximize the existing player resources, to be able to maintain and improve MU's position in the standings, before the summer transfer market opens. Currently MU is still filled with extraordinary players, but it seems that they do not fit the coach's scheme. There are still many matches that Manchester United must go through before the winter ends, and Amorin must achieve the best results before the big changes really happen.


Usually in the second half Tottenham play better, but not in this match, they played badly in the second half so they were unable to take advantage and maintain their advantage. Even for the second penalty that Chelsea got, it was a violation that should not have been done by Tottenham's back line. And in this match, Palmer took 2 penalty executions, he kicked the ball well and I saw no hesitation when he executed the 2 penalties. so that in the end Tottenham had to lose narrowly in this match, and on the other hand thanks to this victory Chelsea managed to overtake Arsenal's position and now Chelsea is in second place in the standings.

After Pochettino's resignation from Chelsea, I personally honestly didn't expect Chelsea's performance to be as good as it is now and indeed now Chelsea is in 2nd place and this is of course extraordinary and of course Enzo, he really built Chelsea well, of course there are now many fans. Chelsea and others who are proud of the achievements achieved by Chelsea and Enzo Maresca. and to be honest, I was also amazed by Chelsea's victory yesterday against Tottenham and this was very good because of course it was not easy to beat Tottenham but in the end Chelsea was able to succeed and produce positive results.

Yes, of course now slowly and unexpectedly, Chelsea can compete in the standings with Liverpool and of course this is a good thing for Chelsea, but yes, if you look at the squad and when compared with Liverpool, of course Liverpool's strength is far superior to Chelsea. but yes, now the reality is that Chelsea definitely has to compete and face the reality that they will be competing with strong teams.

Yes, of course, in the Premier League now the names Enzo Maresca and Arne Slot are the topic of conversation and they definitely have a bright future. Of course, Manchester City's performance is declining, but in my opinion, the era of Pep and Manchester City is not necessarily over because I think Pep's troops and Arteta's troops also need to be wary of because of course it is possible that as time goes by, Pep's troops and Arteta's troops will be able to make a good breakthrough before end of season. But yes, of course Chelsea fans want Chelsea to appear in the UCL next season and if they succeed in maintaining their current position, of course Chelsea will have the potential to appear in the UCL next season.
