Manchester city is performing excellently and deserves to win in this game I jus feel disappointed with the kind of performance Manchester united is putting up today as it just too poor for a home team, earlier in the first half I was thinking they would probably so better by the second half but they seem even worse in the second half, the midfield lacks coordination and they hardly get hold of the ball for.minutes.
Manchester city will eventually go home with a complete point today and climb up the table with twenty four points directly behind the gunners, Manchester united was looking like they are on the path of improvement after the won their UCL game but this match has further exposed how weal they can be they are and still needs do so much of improvement if they must make it to the top four by the end of the season.

No doubt that city has been the dominant factor here, they are the defending champion of the league, they have all the fire power, even in this game they've shown that prowess. But United has been on the defensive side even as a home team, if it was some other times, city would have been winning at two goals this first half with a lot of Dominance, but that's not the reality here, onana and the United defence has intensified some effort in pushing back the attacking force of city.
However Manchester united goalie Onana was very impressive today he's made alot of good saves though he couldn't save the penalty for United like he did against Copenhagen, well as usual Manchester City are more dominant in the match, they playing with more confidence like they're at home and Manchester United players look so tired and confused to the point they left a clear space for Haaland to get another goal around the 48th minute,Haaland has got a brace and could score a Hat-trick in the match.
pep Guardiola's Manchester city side, making the Manchester United side looking weak this second half, after the first double from Erling haaland and another goal from Phil foden to seal the victory for the citizens, what an amazing performance from the citizens, once again the sky is blue in the city of Manchester city, this means the race is gonna be very tight as Tottenham maintain their lead on the log of the table, I wonder how long that may take but I know it's certainly gonna be an interesting campaign this time around because it's not only about arsenal and Manchester city but now Tottenham are now involved in the title race, Manchester city have a lot to worry about especially with the absence of De Bruyne.
Honestly I didn't expect Chelsea to lose points to Brentford yesterday. Even after seeing how they played in the first half I thought they would definitely win. They deserved it much more than Brentford but there is still a serious finishing problem at Chelsea side. Sterling and Jackson both were useless in this match.
After conceding the first goal it was very quick of them to lose their concentration on the match. It wasn't difficult to score the 2nd one for Brentford after that. I hope Nkunku returns as soon as possible because Chelsea just can't go on like this being too inconsistent about scoring.

This is what makes Chelsea look boring when we believe they will win but the opposite happens who would have thought that Chelsea would lose at home
Because we saw how Chelsea played in the last 3 matches, it looks convincing. Now we can't expect anything from Chelsea they are a team that cannot be predicted
So I guess this season Chelsea will finish in the top 8-10 unless they do something in the upcoming transfer window like bringing in new players again.
For myself, I have expected it, because I mark the team that experienced the biggest decline this season is Chelsea and also Manchester United, and yes Chelsea are included in the list, they do not have a player who has a lot of experience in their squad, new coaches may still adapt , their mentality is not good in competing, so for Brenford itself in terms of quality games today are a little better than Chelsea.
Yes, the previous three matches were quite good because they could win Mealwan Burnley, Fulham and could hold the Arsenal draw, if I could measure it, I thought it would be the starting point of the reversal of Chelsea to crawl back to the standings but it was not as strong as that.
Btw, Manchester Manchester City derby has been confirmed to win even though the match is not over, I don't think there will be any miracle for Manchester United in this match.
Man City deserved to win in a match like this, because from Erik Ten Hag strategy it can be seen that he played too much ball at the back, while Man City was very focused on controlling the ball and attacking. So it's not surprising that the gap is wide open and Man United has nothing in the front line or in the midfield.
Is a very bad strategy for Manchester United how could they be playing with a big club like Manchester City and they will be playing with that strategy perhaps Erik Ten Hag should learn more from Pep Guardiola strategy because if you watch closely on Manchester City pattern of play is always on the attacking force. Manchester City pattern of play is very nice and there players knows what to do on every circumstance and they have a very good attacking force and there line of defense.

Haaland activated his goal again, Man City played so freely, open and wide on all sides, able to press as they pleased. Surprisingly, Erik Ten Hag made no changes in the second half. Still as confident as Onana's build up method where the ball always has no clear direction.
After starting the match on a good note, Manchester United unfortunately fell behind to Erling Haaland's first half penalty but since the start of the second half, United have been the second best in all areas on the pitch. Haaland activated his goal again, Man City played so freely, open and wide on all sides, able to press as they pleased. Surprisingly, Erik Ten Hag made no changes in the second half. Still as confident as Onana's build up method where the ball always has no clear direction.
Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag is absolutely clueless of what to do at the moment and with Erling Haaland's second goal of the game, I don't think they can get anything away from this match. Manchester City is undoubtedly the better side and are comfortably cruising to victory in this game.
In April 21, 2001 Alf-Inge Haaland, the father of Erling Haaland, who was playing for Manchest City, received one of the worst injuries of all time from Roy Keane of Manchester United. As a matter of fact, many people are of the opinion that this injury ended his football career.
Fast forward to today, his son Erling Haaland is now a superstar in Manchester City, the club from where his father retired. From recent matches between Manchester United and Manchester City, it is looking like Erling Haaland have come to revenge his father's injury. We can see it in today's match where he has scored the two goals of the cities and still showing willingness to score more.
Do you think it is possible that Haaland is on a revenge mission against Manchester United?

Halaad has scored the first gaol for Manchester city with a penalty kick, after a foul was committed inside the box. Onana couldn't safe the red devils this time.
I don't understand united in this match because it is like they are playing with panic and lack of understanding between united players. I believe that city will win this game from the look of things. United just lost a great opportunity of equalising the goal by Fernandez.
United 0-1 City.

Onana is a joke. This goal keeper was so bad and it's time for manchester united to re signed de gea again since he has been rumored to still stay at manchester at this moment. Manchester united puts meguire as starting line up and there were some moments when meguire was almost doing blunder in this match. Manchester united is also playing without casemiro which is also affecting the performance from united so much. I think that the result from this match is clear if manchester city is going to win the game against MU.
Grealish is comeback and MU has got a golden chance but it can be maximized by doing a proper finishing. I must be honest if onana was a bad goal keeper. I dunno why his performance is dropping drastically compared when he was still at intermilan.
It seems like that his performance being affected by the internal problem in manchester united or what? I can't even understand the way this goal keeper was protecting its goal net.
Ten hag needs to beg on glazer to give him more money to buy a new goal keeper in december.

I believe everyone should have known the result of this match even before the players mounted the pitch. Man U is not as such of old, they can't simply have the match for Man City even as Man City has reduced in form. Man U is not out of the woods, this is obvious, and even with recent developments, it seems it's getting worse for them. If this match continues the way they are currently playing it, it's possible that the Man U will concede at least 3 goals in this game. But still, I will not consider the penalty as a complete way to rate a team, Man U is still holding up well even if they do not impress, but they need to do more.I don't understand united in this match because it is like they are playing with panic and lack of understanding between united players.

They should be thankful that Man City is not in their real form, by now, maybe they would have conceded many goals. A very good opening goal from Haaland to say the least as the first half is almost finished. There might be a lot of surprises in the second half from Man City if Man U is not careful.
Honestly, it sucks watching this Manchester United team everytime they play, look at Manchester City, they aren't at their best yet Manchester United are still shy to attack them. You have created enough chances but can’t convert them. I understand that injuries might be a factor but Injuries doesn’t mean Manchester United should not be able to hold ball rather than counter and long ball. They played the first half with no ideal plan. It was terrible to watch. I believe that if Manchester United can be able to attack this unorganized Manchester City side, they will score them. They’ve been creating, it’s left to convert them. I hope Ten Hag better come up with a different approach in this second half, because they Manchester United were playing poor in the first half.
What a mess for the red devils as they have conceded an early goal in two minutes of the second half, and it was also Halaad that scored again but this time he scored with a header as he was left alone after he received a cross.I don't think that there is hope for United anymore as it will be very hard for them to equalize these two goals, because they are not just playing with any club but they are playing with the defending champions. I believe that the scoring has just begun for City from my observation. City has won all three points in this game.

Indeed, if you look at this match, Brentford deserved to win. Currently Chelsea is a mid-table team. Many young players, inexperience, no balance, no leaders, no stability. Pochettino still has a lot of work to complete if Chelsea wants to recover and continue to develop their game, especially the front line.
It is very difficult for Chelsea to win at Stamford Bridge, this is something that is heartbreaking, even Brentford, since being promoted back to the EPL, Chelsea always lose.
2021/22 : Chelsea 1-4 Brentford
2022/23 : Chelsea 0-2 Brentford
2023/24 : Chelsea 0-2 Brentford

For the record, Chelsea had 3 win, 1 draw and lost to Brentford in their last matches, this was their record in the last 5 matches. Whereas Brentford was 2 losses, 1 draw and won last 2 matches. If Arsenal Chelsea could give Arsenal some lesson then labour to later equalize, then you will understand that Chelsea are good, it's only their strategy and style of play that is not working recently.
In addition, expressing that Chelsea lack experience players is insulting. Is Mudryk, Sterling, Nicolas, Enzo and many more a joke to you? Team winning is about ups and down, there were times Chelsea were the blues of London, but today the luck is not there yet. In fact Chelsea are not the only player with this condition, it happens in all clubs. Even Manchester City were worst like this at sometime but since 2016, it has been all about them.

Manchester United is always on panic whenever they play against Manchester City I don't really no why they always feel tension when they have enough players that are supposed to deliver, and if they continue to play with panic they will conceive a lot of goals on this match perhaps Haaland will use the opportunity to cover up with those matches he failed to score. United 0-1 City.
Actually I no that Manchester United are not matched for Manchester City but however I was thinking since they are playing from home it will be an advantage for them to give Manchester City a very though time that even if Manchester City should win them it will only be within one goal but with what Manchester United is playing the City will score them more goals.
Imagine if Kevin de Bruyne and Gundogan were to be on this match by now Manchester City would have score more than two goals on this first half, Manchester City has really been affected by the absence of those two players because of their role on the team.
Halaad has scored the first gaol for Manchester city with a penalty kick, after a foul was committed inside the box. Onana couldn't safe the red devils this time.

So far Nottingham Forest for the last 5 matches have not won except for a lot of draws, so here I conclude Liverpool can win more easily even more than two goals that's what I think, on the other hand we heard news from Luiz Diaz's family that his parents have been kidnapped in Colombia, now only the father needs to be saved.
I hope Diaz stays mentally strong.
I hope Diaz stays mentally strong.
Easy win for Liverpool and it's going to be in front of the Kop. Although Nothingham forest won Liverpool last season, it's a much better team now thanks to the additions that made the midfield much more solid and reliable so I expect Liverpool to win effortlessly. I do hope that Salah and Nunez gets on the scoresheet because it would benefit my FPL team and parley bets.
Liverpool's dominant performance against Nottingham Forest is reflected in the 3-0 scoreline, as they have continuously launched attacking plays throughout the match. Nottingham forest could only defend from liverpool. I see that sometimes the club was using a counter attack against liverpool.
The chance for liverpool to win this game is very high. The occurrence of the goals is highly probable during the middle or late game as time progresses.
Liverpool is in a high level this time. I have picked liverpool to win this match instead of nottingham forest. Forest was playing away. Look at how liverpool was consistently pressuing forst since the first minute of game.
I think liverpool will win with a cleansheet against forest. It's insane to see how consistent the performance is from liverpool this time. This club becomes even more solid than before.
I think that liverpool is ready to compete for UCL spot this season.
In fact, Nottingham only tried to hold Liverpool but unfortunately, even though Nottingham only tried to hold in this match but still, Liverpool managed making score in this match. So yes, when the match between the lower-ranked team against the top-ranked team, then it is obvious that the lower-ranked team will not have much effort to score. Moreover, in this match Nottingham is playing away and of course, there is no chance for Nottingham to be able to score in this match. Because anyway, Liverpool in this season is also better than the previous season, so do not be surprised if Liverpool managed to win with clean sheets also in this match.
There was not the slightest room for Nottingham in this match, Liverpool appeared so fierce by relying on their best players. The Nottingham goalkeeper had to work hard to block the attacks made by Liverpool players, this match of different quality was very easy for Liverpool to win. The additional three points really help Liverpool maintain the point difference with the teams above them, Liverpool still secures fourth position to provide competition in the title race.

Nottingham was not able to make many attacks in this match because Liverpool's defense was quite good in this match and Liverpool were even able to dominate possession of the ball well enough so that Nottingham Forest lost their control to be able to balance their game in this match. Liverpool three strikers each scored 1 goal in this match and in this match Salah performed quite well because in the 3 goals that occurred he took part in the creation of this goal.I think Liverpool were quite strong in this match and they were able to create quite a lot of chances. but Turner managed to block some of the golden opportunities they had and he was quite busy in this match because he had to block many attacks to secure the Nottingham goal. But in the end Jota opened the scoring and was followed by goals from Nenez and Salah so that Liverpool closed the week quite well because they managed to get 3 points.
Manchester United Vs Manchester city
The first 10 minutes has a little bit intense. City has just gave a serious goal attempt, but onana and Maguire where there again to save the situation that moment. So far the game is a bit balance, as United are still trying to contain city attacking mechanism.
Manchester city is now leading by a goal which may put them to a winning advantage, Maguire and onana are show that they can perform well if given some more time, in the past two matches they have both performed well as compared to their previous performance earlier this season, if other defenders could work towards improvement aswell with onana I think soonest Manchester united will have a solid defense line.The first 10 minutes has a little bit intense.
