Even though Ruben Amorim is not getting it right at Manchester United right now, I will not judge him because Manchester United players have failed to impress their fans and challenge for the Premier League title ever since Sir Alex Ferguson retired as Manchester United head coach. It is when Ruben Amorim has signed the players of his taste and failed to change the situation at Manchester United that I will judge him, but I believe if Ruben Amorim signs the players of his own taste, he will do well at Manchester United because he has eyes for good and talented players who can help a club perform well and challenge for a title.

I completely agree with you. I have also noticed that the players are not able to adapt well to Amorim's match strategy. I find the players a bit confused. If this happens, the bonding between the players will not be strong. Each coach has a different match strategy. If the Manchester United players cannot adapt themselves to Amorim's match strategy, then the Manchester management should definitely bring big changes to their squad.

Considering the overall situation of Manchester United, I would say that Manchester United should bring changes to the entire squad. Manchester United has not improved with the help of Ten Hag. The overall situation of this team is very shaky. Looking at the performance of the players, I still feel that they do not have a specific purpose. It is not possible to do well if you perform like this. The players need to be confident and hardworking.

Having a busy schedule is a very key point you have mentioned that so many persons probably have not looked at this from this aspect because they think the problem is only around the coach, for a team that isn't strong enough, Amorim is only trying to build the weak team he met and at the time he's met them he's not having the much time to get his strategies right with the players and the team getting used to his system, probably after recruiting new players by January he may get to see rise he just needs some time.

When the match against Nottingham Forest i have been watching some of the players still confused with Amorim strategy so this makes them performing poorly but i have no wonder because the current players of Manchester United is Ten Hag legacy and i think it will not be suitable for Amorim system and if Manchester United want to performing better under Amorim then this January they have to bought some players besides that i think some of Manchester United were flop just like Antony, Dalot or Lindelof so Manchester United should be sell these players and next weekend on Premier league Manchester United will facing Manchester City and if Manchester United lost again from this match then i am sure Amorim will received harsh criticism

Tottenham Hotspur are an unpredictable team, you can’t really tell which match they can win or not. They play as though they’re not going to win a match against a team who is bigger than them in the whole season’s performance, then all of a sudden, you’ll see them prevailing in the match and taking the lead and victory. There first two goals yesterday against Chelsea was as a result of the boot Cucurella was using which slipped off the both times they took the ball and scored and only the third goal was more of a clean one. I am really enjoying how Chelsea team are playing now, they’ve really improved this season and continue to show us that they can also compete for the league title. When asked Enzo Maresca about their fight for the league title, he says that they’re not in the title race but from all indications they are as they continue to win more games to be at the position they are now. He could just be faking it, but deep down, he’s ready to fight for the league title like every other in the league.

Nobody expected such a result, especially after 15 minutes of the first half, when Tottenham scored 2 goals and could have scored the third, and Cucurella made 2 gross mistakes that led to the goals and I thought Maresca would replace him at half time, but Cucurella changed his boots and helped the team to win.
Palmer is a phenomenal player and probably Chelsea's best transfer in 10 years. Palmer scored 23 goals and gave 13 assists in 2024, and before him only Hasselbaink did that 23 years ago.
It's a mystery to me why Palmer hasn't been nominated for the golden ball award yet with his stats.

Tottenham as always failed to show their character on the pitch and fell apart after four Chelsea goals and you can see that the team just has no character and whoever coaches Tottenham this always happens.

Of course, Amorim need the players of his taste to fit into his game tactics. United management need to support him and get those players he needs so that he can bring out the best in him to improve the team. They are quick to accept defeat and feel reluctant when they are on the lead, gambling with their victory. A reshuffle will reshape the team.

One thing about this Tottenham team is their lack of consistency and the way they drop points even from winning position. On numerous occasions Tottenham have had their control in games and few minutes they let loose their grasp and the opponent grab it. Yesterday before the first quarter of the game they were two goals and that should be the momentum they build on but just like the past they allowed Chelsea grew in the game.
Chelsea on the other hand have been excellent this season and one key thing about Enzo Maresca boys is the way they react after going behind in a game, they have come back from a losing position multiple times and this fight back is definitely needed to win silverware, although Maresca downplays their title fight I think they are in better position now to challenge Liverpool for the tittle



Amorim has lots and lots of work today and as usual Manchester United will definitely have to start a rebuild again and definitely offload some players, it is sad Amorim is coming in this period of time and he doesn’t have that much time to play his pattern or use players that he wants so to me he shouldn’t just experiment much now but should simply try to get more points and simply play his best players to get a better table finish and hopefully he will have the next summer to himself

Yeah, Tottenham had enough chance to win the game but unfortunately they couldn't. Spurs doesn't have a good enough squad at the moment, they really need more back up players. In their last four home games, they lost two and draw two. That's not good enough result honestly. No doubt, Chelsea outplayed them throughout the game despite that Tottenham were so lucky to take the early lead until second half. Unfortunately, they relaxed and relent to push forward after the 2-0 lead. Tottenham got some pretty chances but they failed to utilise their chances. But I don't understand why Ange rest some good players and decide to bring them at late minutes.

Chelsea on the other hand is performing wonders beyond our expectation and position themselve on the second behind Liverpool with a gap of three points. Although, Liverpool have a game at hand and they might increase the gap difference if they win the outstanding game. The league top four is taking another dimension while we are still wrapping up the first round.

Amorim's disappointment could not be hidden after they lost to Nottingham Forest, he said "It was a difficult game. We started very badly, at the beginning we conceded a goal and then it was difficult to try to fight," said Ruben Amorim.
This is natural because he came to the Red Devils team when the team was undergoing a busy schedule.
Maybe what you said is true with Amorim who has not been able to recruit players according to his taste with the upcoming transfer market Amorim must recruit players according to his wishes with that maybe they will experience changes for the better than they are now.

Tottenham team had enough chances to win this match but they wasted it and lost three points. They were able to score two goals at the beginning of the game which were the result of a lot of hard work, but Tottenham team could not maintain their game.
And Chelsea team used this opportunity and scored goals in a row and they were ready to score 4 goals in a row but at this time Tottenham team's defenders were inattentive. And during this time Chelsea team got two penalties which were positive points to help them succeed, and Chelsea team got 3 points and got second place in the points table.
And in the last minute, the result of the two teams ended with 4-3 goals and Chelsea won.

When Ruud Van Nisterlrooy took charge of Manchester United after the sack of Erik Ten Hag, he showed an impressive performance and made sure Manchester United didn't lose any match in all competitions, and I thought Manchester United management would allow Ruud Van Nisterlrooy to become the assistant coach of Ruben Amorim so that he can help Ruben Amorim get the best out of the current squad of Manchester United since Ruud Van Nisterlrooy knows the club more than Ruben Amorim. We will not blame Ruben Amorim for not allowing Ruud Van Nistelrooy to become his assistant coach at Manchester United because he had a coaching crew at Sporting Lisbon that has helped him achieve a lot of success there, and he thinks that same coaching crew will help him succeed at Manchester United, but he didn't know that Manchester United is totally a different club from Sporting Lisbon. Ruben Amorim will get it right at Manchester United, but it will take him time to achieve that at Manchester United because he needs to let go of a lot of players at Manchester United and sign new players who will help him challenge for the Premier League title next season.

Yes, of course this season is a big test for Manchester City and Pep because their hopes of winning the title again seem to be difficult because there is definitely a slight decline in performance. Yes, I personally am also surprised by what happened to Manchester City this season and with the squad that Manchester City currently has, Manchester City should be better this season, especially with Ilkay Gundogan returning to play for Manchester City, then Manchester City's performance should be better now.

Indeed, Rodri's injury does not necessarily mean that Manchester City's performance will decrease, but yes, this is the reality that Rodri's presence is really needed, the proof is that now there is a difference in the quality of Manchester City's game which ultimately makes it difficult for Manchester City to win when competing. and it's true what you said, it seems like there isn't currently a suitable player to replace Rodri, maybe that's something Pep should think about.

Indeed, now with the draw between Manchester and Crystal Palace, of course M. Salah and his friends will definitely be happy and Arne will definitely want to make good history for himself and Arne will prove that he is a good coach, now Liverpool and Manchester City have a difference of 8 points and Of course, it is not easy for Manchester City to catch Liverpool's points.

You are right, Amorim also emphasized that it is impossible to appear to win the Premier League trophy if his players do not have the spirit to fight in every match. This proves Amorim dissatisfaction with Man United players. That is natural because Amorim has not recruited players according to his wishes. The January transfer market will be the answer, at least Man United fulfills Amorim wishes to bring in several players. But once again overhauling the United squad requires a process that is not easy.

what they are currently enjoying is a product of the tough decision they made last year of taking out the old players and bringing in the new players that are currently performing well for the badge as it stands. one thing about the Chelsea team is that there is competition among players and as it stands, making it to the first team is depending on who gives his all not just in a single game but that does so consistently. look at Madueke being brought into the game almost going into the end of the playing and also look at the mentality of the players even at the time they were going 2:0 down in an away game. there was nothing to show that they are not capable of coming back into the game and that for sure is one huge thing Maresca has succeeded in n building in the team that is the winning and fighting mentality.

looking out to compete with Liverpool for the title race is too early because the defense of the team is still very poor and the first choice of keeper, they are still using is not someone you want to keep using if you are contending for the league. imagine you make this kind of mistakes that led to the two goals against teams like man city, Liverpool or arsenal, you are certain that you will get it really bad because they won't allow you to come back the way the Chelsea team later did. Sanchez and the majority of Chelsea defense are still not there when it comes to strong defense. what Chelsea has in abundance which is the reason why they are scoring more goals than most of the other team in the league is the number of hungry attackers in the team.

It was the of Gibbs's technique that made Onana lose his balance in anticipation and Onana's movement went the wrong way. This was a mistake made by a Manchester United player and the mistake started from Bruno Fernandez so the opponent managed to get the ball before Gibbs' shot made it 2-1. If you look at the anticipation pattern of Manchester United's lower players, it is still very bad and I am not so impressed with Onana's performance because he does not have the instinct to save crucial balls. It is different when you see De Gea's performance in the previous few seasons when he was still at Manchester United, who was always quick to make saves even in tight spaces.

Well, they're a stubborn club for me. They think they'll be able to win games with players like Kai Harvertz, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus leading the Centre forward role?
Come January,  if they want to win the Premier League competition,  they better break the bank and get natural goalscorer who can convert chances whenever he gets them. Props to Chelsea yesterday, they deserve the win.

He is a Euro champion and I don't say he is a too bad player, but I agree with you that in this match, his performance is terrible. He made two big mistakes that cost Chelsea two conceded goals and in other matches, maybe Tottenham will destroy Chelsea after leading 2 - 0 like this. Chelsea managed to come back and beat Tottenham convincingly but Cucurella must be responsible for his individual mistakes in this match. I don't know what happened on field but is it because of the field condition like it is too wet and too slippery.

Leicester City fight hard and they deserved with one point from a strong opponent like Brighton. In this season Leicester City will have to work very hard to find their chance to stay in Premier League and avoid a relegation back to Championship. They can do that, if they continue to show their strong mentality in coming matches. They are not a strong team in Premier League, but to avoid relegation, they can.

Chelsea team is very promising and fearless now. The players are so confident in their business and it brings about success for the team. The tactics are great with Palmer and Enzo supporting from the middle, the wingers closing in from wide and Jackson waiting to score. I believe the improvement needed now is Jackson on his finishing abilities, Lavia on his creativity and football sense.

Chelsea would've lost that match yesterday if Maresca had not acted fast and changed Lavia early in the second half. His lack of effective contributions made Palmer to always return to cover up for his leaking wing reducing his concentration on attack. When he was replaced, Caicedo and Gusto held that defensive play and Palmer focused up front and the rest is beautiful. I've always said it many times that Lavia isn't a player to rely on, he's strong but in creativity and square play, he's still a baby. It's better he's substituted until his football sense increases.

The Chelsea keeper needs improvement too, that Tottenham second goal is a very stupid one, weak shot that got converted because of his lack of concentration.

Chelsea's comeback was beautiful, they really satisfied me yesterday.

I do not bet based on the odds given by the bookmaker but use the odds given by the bookmaker to consider and analyze the possible results of the match, if we understand in more detail then the striking and odd matches that are indeed unreasonable must always end with the defeat of the favorite team or draw.
Indeed, Everton vs Liverpool was postponed but Aston Villa managed to win then Crystal Palace vs Manchester City ended in 2 - 2 draw and Fulham vs Arsenal also ended in 1 - 1 draw so BTTS became the right bet, in the end what I predicted was right, I admire Manchester City but seeing how the current conditions are makes me little skeptical of the performance in several match.
