Luton Town was no worse in this game, but the difference was that Chelsea made use of their chances more efficiently obviously and were able to take a three goal lead. I think it is never easy to come back when you are three goals down of course, but it was fun to see how Luton Town got back into the game and was really close to equalizing the game. Damn I wonder what would have happened with Pochettino if Chelsea wasted those three points in this game after that huge lead. Maybe he would have gotten into trouble this weekend.
Chelsea has been comfortable since the first half by scoring 3 goals and Luton Town scored 2 goals in the second half in the 80th and 87th minutes meaning the Chelsea players lost concentration towards the final minute or maybe they underestimated Luton so they did not anticipate any attack. However this match goes, the most important thing is the final result and Chelsea getting 3 points, now Chelsea is in 10th place yeah these teams are in the middle of the standings and compete with each other to take a place in the European league.
Thankfully Chelsea won the match but we must acknowledge the fact that Luton never made the game better for Chelsea even having a better stat.
Chelsea must learn one thing from this game that until the match is over things definitely can turn around, the fighting spirit Luton had yesterday was a world class and Chelsea as to face this issue they are always found of relaxing as matches is about to end when they are taking the lead especially if it has been since the first half of the game.
Truth be told I think the reason behind the poor performance of Manchester United today was because they underestimated Nottingham Forest because of their position in the league, United come back result in their previous game against Aston Villa should have been a big morale booster for them but I think it affected their performance since they couldn't have a good performance against a team like Forest. Erik Ten hag isn't a good man for the United team so I think he needs to leave the team if he can't win teams that have no history against United.
In my opinion, the match between Nottingham Forest and Man United was an unnecessary defeat for Erik Ten Hag but the result was certainly surprising. The first half was a bit boring but after entering the second half the intensity of the game increased quite a lot and they were able to attack each other. In terms of quality Man United has that but the mentality of the players on the field is a big problem for this club. After half a season at Man United Andre Onana has conceded almost 45 goals. This is a fantastic number to be used as a reference that this is the wrong choice of goalkeeper. This defeat was the gift of the year for Erik Ten Hag and Man United the cycle of winning was only fleeting and then followed by successive defeats.
A bad result for MU, but not surprising I think. That's because MU's performance is inconsistent. they over-celebrated Aston Villa's stunning 3-2 win.
and now we see that when MU faces a weaker team, they also look overwhelmed.
Ten Hag may have no hope this season. and MU may have to make changes to its coaching squad and players next season.
Man United can not be consistent like I said after their last match when others were thinking they were back, I said they are no difference from what we have been seeing since the beginning of the season. Man United is inconsistent, I guess this is the only position Chelsea and Manchester United will fight for this season like who is the worst among them.
Manchester United may need to change coach but the players are still good, wasn't the same player that came from a two goals down to get win, wasn't the same team that trash Chelsea even when everyone expected Chelsea to win. The players are good but are really too inconsistent, needs a good coach to stick winning mentality in their head
