Manchester United is currently worst club in top half of the league table with their performance is going to be down day by day even mostly were feeling after Aston Villa comeback now things could be at their better way but nothing positive appearing with now we have serious talk about sack of ten hag even he is still confident and talking they can overcome this bad time, but now things are looking not good which is creating mess even he is already saying he is not going anywhere, but one thing is sure he fails to handle big club like Manchester United and no one understand how things will be gone into right side from here.

Injured players return can bring any change with this performance can bring changes nothing is surely predictable and players which are best but fail to bring good which is surely wired situation for the fans those are now worried they can stay down in league table and things can go from bad to worse as well.

It is a very good answer from Anthony that he is deserved with very high transfer cost paid by Manchester United to bring him from Ajax Amsterdam to Old Trafford.

I don't wish bad things for Anthony and his career but it seems he was overpaid by Manchester United and the club must think seriously about why they paid it. It is not only about their bad decision for a transfer of Anthony but also for other transfers recent years like Jadon Sancho, Harry Maguire, Wan Bissaka and Casemiro.

They can not think like they have to accept expensive transfer cost requirements from other clubs because they are Manchester United and have very good budget for transfers. Using money more wisely will help them to save more money to buy other players and improve their squad depth and power in other positions.

If they can use $100M to buy 2 or 3 players, their squad will have better depth and quality that will help them more in a long season.

If we predict according to the last 5 matches, Arsenal will be ahead. However, on 10 December, Fulham won a match against West Ham 5–0, while on 28 December, Arsenal lost the match 2–0 to West Ham. We cannot consider Fulham weak in this condition. But Arsenal will surely not want to miss their chance especially in this position. They lost the last match and missed the chance to go top and if they lose today they will be far behind. I think Arsenal will win today's match 3-1.

I think all players who join Manchester United will start to fade in terms of performance and even their careers and when talking about that, of course Onana is the clear example. We know how great he is as an Inter goalkeeper and quite a few people praise him. But what happened when he joined Manchester United was the beginning of the destruction of the career he had built and day by day he was also unable to fix his bad performance.

I think Erik Ten Hag is just a mediocre coach who is overly exaggerated by the media and Red Devils fans and as a result we know that he is deemed inadequate in managing this team. Manchester United invested quite a bit of money from last season to last summer and what were the results? we just look at the joke team every week and hope to win a major trophy in any competition.

Anyway, there are new facts about Antony because in his 33 matches during 2023, he was only able to score 1 goal for Manchester United and he was one of the worst recruits ever during Erik Ten Hag's time.

Chelsea played quite effectively in this match in the first half. They didn't waste many opportunities in this match. But after they were 3 goals ahead, only then did Chelsea start to let their guard down a little. Maybe they felt safe in the match which made them lower the tempo of the game a little. And yes, it almost ended badly because Luton was able to score 2 goals in a fairly short time. And yes, Luton's performance as host also deserves appreciation. They played quite well and exceeded everyone's expectations. Chelsea also looks a little better at the moment. Pochettino can breathe a sigh of relief again after successfully making Chelsea come home with a win and get 3 points.

This loss was on Ten Hag. One day he’ll explain the deal he has with Mctominay. Removing Mainoo for Mctominay which opened up their defensive frailties. What vexed me was that Nottingham Forest didn't have a clear cut chance until McTominay was introduced.
Erik Ten Hag surely is his own undoing. This is the same thing I have always pointed out for Ten Hag, exactly same way Manchester united concedes goals..
Attack from wing and cut back... nobody covering the spaces.
Manchester United conceded identical goals. Nobody defending spaces around the box.
With the way I’m seeing this Manchester United side, there is nowhere Ten Hag will take Man United to. With this coach honestly he is lost. He doesn’t know his selection team to play, too much changes or rotation of the team, and lack of playing style.

Chelsea was wonderful in the both halves, though I thought something could go wrong in the second half because they became too vulnerable and that created access for the home team to mount pressure and score two goals within the range of 8 minutes which was totally absurd on the end of the Blues. Chelsea was victorious but they had to suffer pressure from Luton Town because they're the home team. The Hatters suffered defeat on their home ground, Kenilworth Road and they remained in the relegation zone and there's nothing Rob Edwards would do until it's new year.

Statistically, the two teams did not have a significant difference, but Chelsea's 2 goal lead in the first half made them very confident in the second half so that in the end Luton Town managed to score 2 goals before the match ended. In fact, Chelsea was not that impressive in terms of their performance in this match even if Luton Town still have more time so it is not impossible that they will score another goal.

However, whatever happens, Chlesea managed to get 3 points in this match and that is quite important for them to improve their position in the standings and improve their mentality to face the next match.

The surprise that occurred this weekend was Manchester United's defeat, this is really a very strange team, last week they played well but this week it's back to normal, lol.

That is right, but when you check the statistics of the game, obviously Luton Town wasn't significantly worse than Chelsea, but they have been less efficient with their chances and that made the difference for the first 80 minutes of the game. However, once Luton was able to score their first goal, it was once again the same Chelsea as we have got to know it in the last weeks. They don't have the quality to bring that win home safely without any danger. It was close in the end and giving away a lead of three goals would have been catastrophic.

Many people are talking about Chelsea and their performance with things are looking better even still it's a long way to go for them but most chances in 2024 they could be on better spot with good performance Pochettino is bringing good changes and players are also adopting his strategy in last four games they are having third win which bring them to better level and now if they are able to stay in good shape we can expect more positive results and things could be on better control for them as well.

In first half, Chelsea were in complete control but in last 15 minutes we have dangerous attacks from Luton which try their best for coming on level but fail to give themselves anything positive but still their performance is impressive, and we can expect good fight for to survive in coming weeks next match could be better for them with Burnley is also having bad time which give them some positive result.

The most underappreciated club in the Premier League this season is Manchester United; even though there are many teams that struggle, Manchester United owns too much because they are the most popular team in the league. Erik ten Hag is unable to manage a team like Manchester United and is incapable of building a large team like Manchester United. The team has not experienced this kind of subpar play, which has made them an underappreciated team in the Premier League this season. Erik Teng Hang joined the team and stated, "Ronaldo is the problem of the team," so I already knew that the man could never help the team.

Even more, I was taken aback by yesterday's match because, following Manchester United's victory over Aston Villa, I had assumed that the team would constantly strive to win more games without realising how bad things would get once Rashford equalised the score and the game ended in a 1-1 draw. I thought Manchester United would win, but when Nottingham Forest scored at the 82-minute, I already knew that Manchester United had lost. Despite this, I can't shake the suspicion that Onana is a poor custodian; does he lack strength once more, or has he started drinking alcohol and is gaining weight?

Manchester United need to reshuffle their squad, both of the players and manager aren't have a good quality. Changing few players with a same manager or changing the manager with same players won't give a big difference.

Manchester United will be like Tottenham, can't be underestimated but they can't get any trophy due to not that strong.

The two North London clubs who lost their midweek game respectively will be playing today maybe to make up for their previous games, talking about Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur. Both teams are gradually leaving the top 4 for those who are serious.
Tottenham I won't say much because this team tried their best to convince us that they're going to win the league and they're at the top back then to stay but that bad luck got hold of them before we could enter December, it was a very poor performance coming from them.
Arsenal need to get that win against Fulham if not I don't see them getting close to that number 1 spot on the log. The host Fulham haven't been having a great time in their last 3 games in the EPL after that 5-0 win against West Ham and they'll be going head to head against Arteta's men who lost against that same West Ham. Is becoming a norm for Arsenal to always drop point when it matters and they feel they can lift the trophy, no way. I see serious clubs like Liverpool, Man City even Aston Villa who don't play around when it comes to teams they can beat and secure all 3 point.
I just hope Arsenal come up with a better plan if not they should forget in hunting for the title, as for this game I believe Fulham would make the first half very difficult for the visitors but I can't say for the second half.

I think, Manchester united performance is very poor in this season because they have be finding it difficult to improve but they have failed in some matches that is still making their points so low in the premier league table. I thought Manchester united can maintain the equalized 1-1 in the second half so that they can share points with Nottingham forest but the match turned for the favour of Nottingham forest 2-1 to defeated Manchester united despite the effort. I know that Ten Hag will not pass this season before he will be sack, because his performance this season show that he will not take Manchester united to a better position with this current performance.

Manchester United have problems which were not fixed and their performances won't become good and stable because of unsolved problems. They can have surprising good form but it is all they can do. Good form will be lost again and they will have mini crisis again. Without ability to maintain a good stable form, they will not be able to win titles like Premier League.

Even with this poor unstable form, they will struggle to compete with other clubs in Premier League to end in top four and join Champions League in a next season.

Claiming a first position now is not decisive for Arsenal to win Premier League. It's their lesson past season and to win title, they must have an excellent form through a long season especially in final weeks of season. When players get exhausted by a long season, after many matches, what team can play better in final weeks of season, will have higher chance to win the league.

Well, maybe this is the time for Arsenal to prove that they deserve to be in first place. The reason is that the match against Fulham probably won't be too difficult for Arsenal to get 3 points so they can jump to 1st place, even though it might only be for a short time. The reason is that currently Aston Villa and Liverpool have both collected 42 points.

So even though in the next match Arsenal can win the match against Fulham and manage to occupy first place, perhaps the deciding factor will be until Livervool faces Newcastle. If, for example, Livervool can beat Newcastle, then Arsenal's position could be shifted again. However, if for example Livervool lose to Newcastle, Arsenal can breathe a little easier.

But the point is that Bukayo Saka and his friends must be able to win the match against Fulham, whatever the score. The reason is, this might be the best opportunity for Arsenal to shift Liverpool from the top of the standings.

Manchester United will be a team like this for at least this season, they can win and surprise many people but it can also be very disappointing like yesterday's defeat, and this season Manchester United has experienced several defeats against teams that many predicted they would be able to overcome well, with this fact it is better to never include them in our bets which will only make us lose more often unless we dare to take the risk by choosing their opponents when United is facing a weaker team even though it still does not increase the chances of winning, because United will always get random results.
And Chelsea is a team that is not much different from Manchester United, even though they managed to win against Luton, we will see how Luton had the opportunity to equalize the score and face Luton Chelsea faced resistance that was not easy, so it is quite reasonable that they often lose against stronger teams, and the same like Manchester United, it would be better to ignore betting on Chelsea until there are real changes in that team.

One thing that has hindered Arsenal title hopes over the years is losing matches at a very critical stage of the league, imagine the match they lost against Westham of which they would have comfortably topped the table but instead they lost and who knows how today's match against Fulham is gonna look like because everyone will be craving for Arsenal to win and bounce back to the top of the league but we might see another different thing because at this point Arsenal can't be trusted at all as anything is meant to happen in this game against Fulham. Winning just 2 matches away out of six is a very poor result and should they want their title hopes to be reactivated then they need to win this match.

We see together how Coach's influence is on the team. With Unai Emery, Aston Villa has risen to another level. Who knows what would have happened if he had managed Manchester United. Manchester United needs a good coach. Now Ten Hag has reached his patience limit. He lost almost half of his matches in the EPL.

We had just been given pleasure after the dramatic victory against Aston Villa, but everything was destroyed again when Manchester United visited Nottingham's headquarters and yes, Nottingham's victory was 2-1 in last night's match. Even though Nottingham is the host, I don't expect them to win at all, especially since Manchester United has strong motivation to win again. However, in fact Manchester United showed their bad game again so they had to concede first.

Marcus Rashford had equalized the score at 1-1, but instead of being able to recover, Manchester United conceded again in the match and Gibbs-White became Nottingham's hero in this match through the goal he scored in the 82nd minute and at the same time closed the match with a win for Nottingham. I don't know why Erik Ten Hag can make Manchester United come back like this, whether as a coach he can't maintain the team's current performance and if it continues like this it is very likely that Manchester United will finish in the middle of the standings.
