Tottenham are in dire straits right now. The team's performance at the start of the season surprised everyone. The team was at the top of the table for a long time. But they did not win in the last 5 matches. Lost 4 out of 5 matches and drew 1 match. Important players of the team cannot be in the squad due to injuries. This is why the team lost the truck. And now Tottenham's performance is very bad. The team may not even be in the top four of the table. In a few days, we will see the Tottenham team in the sixth or seventh place of the table.

The results from the last night games both Tottenham and the Newcastle side that played away was a surprising, Tottenham is not the only big team now that is having bad results or on their bad form, Manchester city is still facing difficulties and Chelsea too on their side has not been stable either ,I would not because of Tottenham Hotspur current poor performance and take them out of the top 4 four picture, and looking at what is happening this season in the Premier League in terms of how the big teams are switching positions in table, no team is guaranteed in their current position, even Arsenal that seem a bit strong now may also not be their in the next two weeks.

2 quite surprising results occurred in this midweek match, Newcastle, against many people's predictions, could lose with a score against the Everton team and Tottenham's defeat at home.

Tottenham is indeed experiencing a significant decline, and it seems that the coach has not been able to get the team out of this problem, as well as the Tottenham team's playing style has not changed, so if it remains the same it will be difficult for them to recover.

And in another match, I was a little confused whether this was the revival of the Everton team or the decline of the Newcastle team. It is certain that Newcastle this season is so much worse than last season that it is very likely that they will no longer be able to compete at the top of the Premier League standings like they did last season. .

Spurs are in decline.

This is the good old Spurs we are used to, the beginning of the season was somewhat unsual, they were winning all their games and we actually thought a title challenge was on the cards, i guess we have to think again. I know they missed and are still missing some of their players to injury and suspension, but that is not enough justification for their bad form. I know Ange is sticking strongly to his philosophies and though i don't see a reason why he should change it, but maybe he shoud tweak things a little bit, they have to defend better and stop losing games when they are in winning positions.

Spurs are the only team that have now dropped more points from winning positions than any other team in Europe's top seven divisions so far this season (16).
They are playing good attractive football but the number of injuries their players are having, it just doesn't translate well. They don't have an out and out Center Back that is fit to play. Could have been contesting for top 3 but are now hard stuck at 5th.

Spurs are in decline. Repeating the incident when Liverpool were defeated through Simon Hooper's various controversial decisions at that time. Unfortunately, in the match against West Ham, Simon Hooper was not the referee. Lol

West Ham broke Tottenham's dominance of the game, who continued to attack in the first half. Romero's goal in the 11th minute did not make Ward-Prowse's mental decline.
Tottenham will face another strong opponent in the next match this week. Newcastle can create similar conditions because they have also just received defeat.
The top four positions are threatened to be maintained by Spurs.

Tottenham also lost to West Ham home which wasn't expected for me at all. Their general performance was really not convincing at all. Son wasn't having a good day as well but I think he should have still stayed on the pitch until the end of the game. While you are 2-1 behind you need your best scorers on the pitch to have more chance.

Just as Manchester City Tottenham are also continuing on a horrible streak in the league now. I'm curious about where they will finally put an end to this. Especially Manchester City are trying their best to make things difficult to become the champions.

To me, Tot's match last night was a failure, as they were more appreciated and especially played at home, but the result reflected everything, and this is football that is not always easy to predict. Perhaps they need to improve more next time to nurture their chances of competing with other big clubs for their own goals this season. But we must also congratulate West Ham on their victory when they successfully came back.

Both are having a series of disappointing results, especially for MC, I think they are having a challenging journey to successfully defend the championship this season.

The fate of Tottenham has been predicted by many people beforehand that this club will only appear while at the top of the standings. After getting 1 defeat, they will suffer consecutive defeats and just yesterday someone said this so it is only natural that Tottenham has started to decline in performance because consistency is very important but the club it loses its stability.
For MC it seems like he is currently in a bad situation losing his best player but I am sure that Pep Guardiola will fix this problem and his performance will soon recover and situations like this are common for big clubs to go through and this time it has happened to Manchester City which must immediately improve its performance. before falling far behind in points.

Considering the correlation of forces, MC is a team with much more quality, even when key players are underperforming or injured, their force is still capable of competing with other top clubs. But it's true that the difficult period is not over yet, maybe we need to wait more time for them to improve their rankings.

As for Tot, I highly appreciate them, but competing for higher rankings will be difficult because the club's basic potential is still limited. Looking at the way they play with big clubs, they have a very limited approach. However, in matches with small clubs, they disappointingly lose points.

Tottenham is one team i respect in the EPL and whenever i want to call big teams in the EPL i always include them. They started so well from the start and now we are experiencing a different type of play. I feel so sad for them because i know they had plans on competing to succeed in going to the UCL next season. Yesterdays game was a big win for David Moyes Westham. Not because they won Tottenham but because they were goal down and they played so hard and equalized and finally won the game with one goal ahead of Tottenham. This is something they should be happy about because it shows they have improved in performance.

To be without a win in their last 5 Premier League matches after a very promising start to the season is something terrible that they are experiencing. In those 5 matches they can only collect 1 point when they draw against Manchester City. I thought when they managed to hold Manchester City to a draw it would be the moment they would rise again, and in fact they had to lose this week, even though in actual strength West Ham were not better than them.
They are indeed superior statistically, but the problem is that it is not enough because they have to create more goals than the opponent's goals, and that they cannot do.

Tottenham is really in a poor shape recently, unlike before they were very firm and did performed so well in the season such that we all taught for once they would dare to contend for the league title but now it turned out they are not in such form again to be able to contend, they will literally struggle for top four in the nearest future if they continue in this form.

Manchester city seem to also suffer almost same fate as they have not been in their best form recently wit several draws which makes it seem like they are not playing their best again, I wonder if Manchester city will still get to the top of the table soonest again, because the point difference is widening such that they will need a series of wins to make up for it and it currently doesn't look like the top teams are going to loose point soon enough to give them a chance at their current form.

a few days earlier I often read that many people gave bad criticism of MU and compared it with Chelsea, that this club is much better than Man United, but in fact MU won narrowly yesterday.

It is very reasonable that most people predict this match will end in a draw, but what happens on the field is very different from predictions outside the match. Choosing a draw when placing a bet on this match is very logical considering the condition of the two teams, the additional goal scored by McTiminay in the second half made all those who placed bets on a draw have to bite their fingers.
The positive results that Manchester United have just achieved can be a motivation for the next match. Manchester United also needs to maintain its performance ahead of the final match of the UCL group stage against Bayern Munich.

In the midst of Man United inconsistency it is difficult to predict preparation for the UCL is certainly not easy with the condition of all Man United players supposed to benefit the opponent. On the other hand when facing Chelsea I also think that this will end in a draw or Chelsea will win. However Dewi Fortuna a breath of fresh air said the opposite Man United was superior and that was thanks to Mctominay. Whether we realize it or not Man United is now starting to approach its slumping EPL rival Man City.

We all didn't expect Tottenham to be beaten at home because previously I thought the two teams would only draw or Tottenham would win but what happened was the opposite Tottenham were defeated for the 4th time, previously they were at the top of the standings but today only in 5th position we clearly see something different and I don't know what the main problem is.

First I thought that they would be affected quite much by some important injuries. But the situation has really got out of control recently. Tottenham just can't be this bad all of a sudden. Ange Postecoglou has had a really great system for this team and it has been working smoothly until the beginning of this horrible streak.

When Son also plays badly Tottenham become really desperate. Because in the games they have difficulties Son is their savior generally. Let's see how the manager will deal with this bad streak. They are dropping down from the title competition by that otherwise.

I think their game against West ham was the 5th game in a row where Tottenham have led in a game and failed to pick up three points. I don’t want to say that they’re suffering from the long injury lists. But looking at yesterday’s game, Tottenham should have won that game. I don’t understand how they failed to convert most of the chances they had. They missed a number of chances to extend their lead in a first half which saw them muster 12 more shots and a further 1.1 of Expected Goals. I don’t know if this run of lost leads is having a psychological impact on the players, as they are now on a run of four defeats in those five outings.

The wastefulness yesterday allowed West Ham back into the game in the second half. I expected them to respond after west ham scored the second goal but they couldn’t. Honestly it’s just sad seeing Tottenham playing like this. They have gone from being talked up as title contenders to falling outside of the top four.

It was the most interesting and supering result I could ever see in the Premier League between Everton and Newcastle because I think Everton was not in a good situation to beat a team like Newcastle and we should not forget to get Newcastle is a team they are racing at the top side of the Premier League that's maybe a good reason to say this result was not something anyone could predict to see but Everton scored three goals against Newcastle while Newcastle had much more control over the game.

Sometimes controlling possession of the ball doesn't provide any benefits for the team if they don't have good opportunities or players who can execute these opportunities into goals as experienced by Newcastle and the three goals scored by Everton occurred when the match had entered the 79th minute, and you can see in other matches that Tottenham had an even bigger percentage of ball possession but they also lost to West Ham, and that defeat meant they only got 1 point from the last 5 matches because after they lost to Chelsea which was a surprise Tottenham was not able to recover.
Tottenham's bad results are like a nightmare for them, who appeared very impressive at the start of the season and that happened because quite a lot of their players had to be absent due to injuries, such as Ivan Perisic and James Maddison.

Newcastle was different case. The club was controlling the ball but in fact that if newcastle being so clueless. The club has no clue what they shall be doing. This makes everton played so crazily against newcastle. That's a great result from everton.
Everton was leaving from the relegation zone even when it was getting 10 points deduction due to the violating FFP rules. I can't even describe how happy everton fans are. They were seeing their clubs leave from relegation zone this fast.
Unbelievable performance from everton. I hope that everton will repeat the same performance in the upcoming game. Everton's position is not yet safe.
The club needs to make sure it can make the gap to the relegation zone becomes even bigger. Sheffield may be relegated this season. This is unbelievble thing to happen. How amazing everton is.

Everton have been giving some really good home games this season. Although Newcastle tried hard enough, they could not score a single goal, the striker of the Newcastle team could not break the opposing team's defense in any way. Everton had 21 shots on target, and Newcastle had a team-high 13. The reason for almost half being less than more is because the Everton goalkeeper and the defensive department is so strong that they are able to score three goals. Newcastle had two opportunities to take corner kicks but failed to capitalize on the opportunities. And until the end they had to fail because Newcastle team players failed to take the ball up to the Dbox and shoot towards the goal post.

The strikers of newcastle have been getting some golden chances. It's their mistakes caused by they were unable converting the golden chance to be a goal in the last match. Everton was able leading the game and it was also snowballing. Newcastle lost its focus after it was losing 1 goal against everton.
Howe shall take the result against everton as a very important result to evaluate the performance from his team. I must admit that if newcastle was performing so badly. I'm not even trying to underestimate newcastle but the performance against everton was so bad.
Everton has better execution compared to the newcaslte and this is a common thing once your team was losing mentality to win the game. Newcastle needs to make sure it will have stronger mentality when the club would be playing away.

The result against everton was enough to prove how bad newcastle is right now when it was playing away.

Snip.

from several discussions, many thought that yesterday match would end in a draw when the performance of both teams was the same without stable consistency, but it turned out that Man United was far superior after the second half scored 1 additional score for Man United victory and I am sure that yesterday those who bet in this match chose a draw. they will definitely be surprised by this result, even I myself thought it would be a draw.

a few days earlier I often read that many people gave bad criticism of MU and compared it with Chelsea, that this club is much better than Man United, but in fact MU won narrowly yesterday.

Playing at home should be a reference for Everton to play optimally. Of course, this win can help Everton get out of the relegation zone because the penalty they received was a points deduction which required them to play in full to get the full three points. Everton played very well and didn't waste any opportunities. so they were able to beat Newcastle 3 - 0.

I know it's not easy to do but Everton finally managed to take advantage of their opportunity to score three goals against Newcastle and this was quite a heavy defeat for Newcastle, of course not many people favored Everton winning yesterday's match but seeing their game was really amazing, all fans Everton certainly did not feel in vain in providing full support for last night's match.

Based on statistics between the two teams playing balanced but I think this is a matter of stamina when the match entered 78 minutes Everton scored the first goal then score 2 more goals this is not the first time I saw Newcastle lost towards the last minutes because previously Liverpool had done it so I think Newcastle players have run out of stamina so they can't withstand attacks. Besides that Everton does need points to get out of degradation at least this time they managed to go up to 17th position but in the next match they will face Chelsea Everton are playing at home but are not sure they can beat Chelsea because currently Chelsea is unpredictable sometimes they can be favorites and sometimes they disappoint so the conclusion is unpredictable.

Since the last 2 seasons, Everton has always managed to overcome relegation finished in 17th and 16th place, for this season I think they are still in the same area therefore we really cannot predict how they will play in each match including in the upcoming match against Chelsea. I predict both teams will score goals but cannot determine who will win.

But indeed the 3-point result for Aston Villa in this match made another surprise because I understood when they were not an easy opponent but my expectations were only for a draw or victory for Manchester City but in this match it was exactly the opposite.

This is a series of unpleasant results for Manchester City because 4 matches done ended with 1 loss and 3 draws really made them lose a lot of points at the moment and immediately thrown to 4th place.
Now Pep really has to be able to get up at this time because if in the end they receive results like this mid-season for Manchester City will obviously be unpleasant to do.

Aston Villa just crushed Manchester City in this match. Aston Villa had 22 shots on goal, compared to 2 for Manchester City and were lucky that Aston Villa scored only one goal, the one that was canceled is not considered, because before the goal the ball really went over the line and canceled it correctly. This is a failure of Manchester City without reservations, they had no chance and considering the previous matches, Guardiola has something to think about. There was no such competition in the EPL last season. Liverpool were caught in a generational change and were unstable, Arsenal lacked character, Chesley were out of contention and Aston Villa were mid-table. Now Emery has knocked Manchester City out of 4th place and are clearly a medal contender this season.

Emery is probably the best acquisition of Aston Villa in recent years.

The problem is still the same where Manchester City lost the ball organiser in midfield which makes them seem very deadlocked because they are too rushed in attack.Losing KDB is very disturbing but it can be minimised by the presence of Rodri in Manchester Citymidfield but when there is no Rodri indirectly they will become increasingly difficult and it was seen in this match where they imposed the same formation but with Stones who was used as a defensive midfielder as a supplier of ball flow which is not too suitable because Stones is more often in the defensive area.

This should be of more concern now because if it continues like this Manchester City will be even more difficult even though now they have also felt a decline in the standings but they can still catch up with the points but if in the end they continue like this then the points gap will be even greater.

Manchester City have lost not only De Bruyne but also Gundogan. Stones used to play as well, but got injured, so only Rodri was left from the "old" midfield. Newcomers like Phillips or Kovacic cannot replace De Bruyne or Gundogan.
Usually Manchester City has a weak first part of the championship and they win on a long distance, but if the opponent is serious, like Liverpool times trio Salah - Mane - Firmino, Manchester City loses the championship.
Arsenal and Liverpool are serious this season and whether Guardiola will be able to catch up with them is a big question.

But I expect Aston Villa to be champions this year and I am rooting for Emery. He has found his club and should turn the game around in the EPL.

It seems the confidence you have in Emery is really massive because they were able to win Pep Guardiola's side Mancity.There is no doubt about the quality in the Aston Villa squad at the moment and what they can achieve,but I totally do not agree with you that they can be Champions when we have the likes of Arsenal who are despirately in hunger for the tittle since last season,and also Liverpool who wants to take the glory from City by all means.Well,if Aston Villa can win Arsenal on Saturday,then I can say they are a contender to the Tittle,but I doubt that will happen,it will definitely be a tough match,which Arteta and Arsenal knows,but I don't think they would let Aston Villa win them,rather,it would end in a draw or Arsenal will win them.

The problem is still the same where Manchester City lost the ball organiser in midfield which makes them seem very deadlocked because they are too rushed in attack.Losing KDB is very disturbing but it can be minimised by the presence of Rodri in Manchester Citymidfield but when there is no Rodri indirectly they will become increasingly difficult and it was seen in this match where they imposed the same formation but with Stones who was used as a defensive midfielder as a supplier of ball flow which is not too suitable because Stones is more often in the defensive area.

This should be of more concern now because if it continues like this Manchester City will be even more difficult even though now they have also felt a decline in the standings but they can still catch up with the points but if in the end they continue like this then the points gap will be even greater.

Manchester City have lost not only De Bruyne but also Gundogan. Stones used to play as well, but got injured, so only Rodri was left from the "old" midfield. Newcomers like Phillips or Kovacic cannot replace De Bruyne or Gundogan.
Usually Manchester City has a weak first part of the championship and they win on a long distance, but if the opponent is serious, like Liverpool times trio Salah - Mane - Firmino, Manchester City loses the championship.
Arsenal and Liverpool are serious this season and whether Guardiola will be able to catch up with them is a big question.

But I expect Aston Villa to be champions this year and I am rooting for Emery. He has found his club and should turn the game around in the EPL.

I bet on Newcastle and lost, but I have to give credit to Everton as they were fantastic tonight, showing great hunger. I'm happy for Everton. Who knew a 10-point deduction could give players this much drive? Although they were in form before the deduction, it seems like now they have a point to prove. Yes, Newcastle's inconsistency was questioned in this match, and I'm disappointed too much. This is the same Newcastle that hit Chelsea and Man United hard.

This is why it is called the best league in the world, even those at the bottom can be on fire, it's crazy cool. And this is why we never get bored watching the English league, Newcastle wins over Man United, but can lose to Everton, this is just a round ball. I'm not surprised that the English league always causes a lot of casualties when betting. Cheesy

Everton has a high fighter even though they are still under due to the points deduction penalty. But it must be admitted that before Everton were sanctioned this season, their game was already quite good, especially now that they have dropped to the bottom of the rankings, they are increasingly motivated every game to get full points.

I give kudos to Everton for there courage and determination having defeated Newcastle convincingly 3-0 no thanks to double errors by Trippier that gifted Everton two goals it was indeed a well deserve win, , I believe Everton manager Sean dyche and his players had vowed to escape relegation after their 10 points deduction they could have been above Chelsea on the table had the 10 points wasn't deducted and I hope the team remain consistent in their performances in their subsequent matches week in week out to remain in the league and I believe they would escape relegation because the 10 points deduction is too from my own point of view.

The impact of the points deduction is unlikely to change Everton's mentality to immediately escape the relegation zone and a 3-0 win without reply against Newcastle at home is a very impressive result. I didn't expect Everton to do this and send Newcastle home without taking a single point. Even though it is clear that Newcastle will be targeted to win quite easily in this match and they also really control the course of the match. But every opportunity that Everton had was utilized well and converted into many goals.

McNeil, Doucoure and Beto were the goal scorers in this match and Sean Dhyce is certainly very happy with the performance of his players. Once again, Newcastle's inconsistency was questioned in this match and they will be pushed even further into the middle of the table if they continue like this. Anyway, congratulations to Everton for this win and they should continue their winning trend in the upcoming matches.

With all the form Newcastle has had this season, they have played against many teams much stronger than Everton and have won them, but it is only Everton that Newcastle will not be able to defeat. If someone were to tell me that Everton will lose to Newcastle, I would not believe them because Newcastle is playing so well that you can even think that they will beat any team. Imagine Everton defeating Newcastle 3-0; that is too much for Newcastle.

And while I am aware that Everton is just as good as Newcastle this season, Newcastle is currently ranked seventh in the Premier League, I have been wondering why it is that sometimes, teams in good shape play in a different way. I had assumed that Newcastle was planning to be in a strong position to qualify for the Champions League, but after their performance yesterday, I have come to doubt that they will be able to do so.
