Tottenham Hotspur seem really in a good form this season they have actually been on the first position on the premier League table since from day one, so if they should continue wining there matches they will stand on a chance of wining the premier league this season.

But however Manchester City and Arsenal will always remains there major rivals on this premier league season but although I'm still seeing Manchester City as the winner of this premier League season but let see how the premier league will go.

Luckily, Rodri is back, so at least their strength can be quite good again compared to their condition last week without De Bruyne and Rodri. The reason is that for next week against Man United, apart from De Bruyne who is still absent, their defender Akanji is also affected by an accumulation of cards. red. However, they should still have other reliable players behind them and this might not be too problematic.
Regarding what the results will be, I myself am still very curious. Sometimes I'm sure that Man City will win, but this time Man United also sometimes put up quite a strong resistance. This will certainly be interesting again, I hope Man City doesn't make the same mistake when they lost to Arsenal a few weeks ago.

Kevin was out with injury and the team did well to manage the games played.  A player like Gundogan  was around when Kevin was absent.
Bernadotte Silva and Rodri also are strong important members of Man City.
The game on Sunday against Man United will be a good day to teach Man United players football. Man City should also win tomorrow.
Young boys will be hard at home in that matter I can't wait to see how it happens.

Haaland is getting sharper as the spearhead for Man City. Even since he joined Man City, it seems that all opponents are always wary of Haaland because Haaland moves quickly to receive passes. And he is always able to maximize the pass he receives to turn it into a goal. Currently he has only scored 9 goals. But if De Bruyne is not injured then I think Haaland can score even more goals like last season. Last season he was more productive. And actually this season he has had a slight decline. But still he is still the best. And as a bomber at Man City, his role has not yet been replaced. So Man City must always hope that Haaland can avoid injury. Because if Haaland is injured then it will be a nightmare for Man City. But fortunately Haaland is always able to avoid injury. Man City is currently still the strongest candidate to win the title again this season.

Today, somewhere on Twitter, I saw statistics that in the first 9 games, Tottenham head coaches (about 9 people) scored from 21 to 24 points, quite funny for not the strongest and most titled team in the Premier League. The start is often good, but what next? Regarding the advantages of Tottenham, their main advantage is that they do not play in the Euro Cups, so they will have more strength for the entire distance.

Behind Haaland's success at Man City cannot be separated from the expertise of a good coach, namely Pep Guardiola. And apart from that, Haaland is also helped on the field by the quality midfielders that Man City has. Without these two things, Haaland would not be where he is now. Currently Haaland is still the top scorer in the Premier League with a total of 9 goals in 9 matches. The second position is occupied by H. Son and the third position is occupied by M. Salah.

This means that Haaland is still the best striker currently in the Premier League. And I think that will continue even until the end of the season. After Man City's mainstay recovers from injury, Haaland will get the best ball supply again in the attack line and score more goals.

Erling Haaland is the current best striker in EPL when it comes to goal scoring. He's a confident striker and he's very good infront of goal.  Luckily for him, he's in Manchester City were his presence is valued by his teammates and the coach, Pep Guardiola simply wants him to keep topping scorers leader board. We all know Erling Haaland weakness, he's basically not good when it comes to footings with the ball, consistently waiting for key passes from creative playmaker like Kelvin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva, spoon feeding him with crucial passes which he converts most to goals.

It's very obvious that Kelvin Debruyne was the real pillar of City and it was his good accurate passes that gave Haaland most of his goals last season, the whole team seriously misses him cause he controls the midfield very well and has a good vision to deliver good passes that lead to goal from a distance or close range, if you noticed  his goal score rate is poor compared to last season even though he's still the highest goal scorer currently,  all this ill luck he's having is due the absence of Kelvin Debruyne cause nobody currently give those good passes to Haaland like KDB does.

 Manchester City are currently 2nd in the league table after suffering several defeats against Wolves and Arsenal,Pep has come up with a strategy for his team to perform well even with absence of KDB,they'll be playing against young boys away from home in the UCL match tomorrow, it would be easy for them to beat Youngl boys and i believe Pep might rotate his team cause after that is a derby match at Old Trafford against Manchester United.

The problem with this is that when KDB is not in the squad, Pep's scheme also becomes different because they will prioritize attacks carried out on both sides especially some players like Alvarez, Bernardo Silva and Foden they prefer to play dribbles rather than breakthroughs made and it was seen in the last few matches especially for their match against Brighton 2 goals they produced came from attacks that started from both sides.

Manchester City do have a lot of good players but for the problem of initiating the ball and the flow that is created from the midfield pass only KDB is able to do that so when he was injured then one pattern of Manchester City's attack was lost.

Yes, there isn't much good balls to leap on and with De Bruyne absence opponent's main focus has shifted towards Haaland and he is usually in tight spaces now. I think I expected that pretty much when KDB got injured. I think if someone steps up and start feeding in some good passes or crosses then Haaland can again be on a scoring spree. It just needs a bit of better understanding and coordination.

Yeah that's true Haaland has not been scoring much goals from there past matches even on that there match against Arsenal team he was finding it difficult to cope and since most of the clubs knows that he is a good striker and doesn't joke with scoring goals they always make sure to tackle him in such a way that he will find it difficult to perform that's exactly what is happening to him right now.

Although if Kevin de Bruyne were to be on there games it would have been an easy one for Haaland to keep scoring his goals because most of his patterns is mostly based on team work built by Kevin de Bruyne so I believe his absence is really affecting Haaland.

I have no clue how many people realize that the midfield Gundogan + De Bruyne was the essence of the game of Manchester City last season. Their combined scorer points were through the roof, but apart from the scorer points they had an inconceivable control over and impact on the game of Manchester City. The ball control, the passing, but also their switches between defense and offense, it was just impressive. The only other duo that has ever played on that level and which comes to my mind now is Kroos + Modric. Is is fun to watch these guys play together, or let's say it was fun to watch them when they both were in their prime and the same was last season for Gundogan and De Bruyne.

There is no doubt that Haaland is one of the best strikers in the Premier League if not the best because he score plenty goals that people never expect in his first season in the Premier League, but this season, he has played some matches without scoring goals due to the absence of KDB in Manchester City's midfield.


You are right! but Everton style of play can be favorable for Haaland as well because they play a long ball pattern which is what Haaland is after so that he can be scoring ball from crosses.

I don't understand, do you mean Haaland will play at Everton by leaving Manchester City or something else? LOL, I think there are no factors that will be able to make Haaland leave and join Everton . Because after all, the fact is that Manchester City have also not yet played against Everton so far this season and also, Manchester City schedule against Everton it seems is still long . So yes, I still don't understand what you mean about Haaland and Everton, because I think there is no basis and or related issues about them either so far.

The combination of Gundogan and De Bruyne at that midfield last season was something I will refer to as a wicked combination. The duo were spectacular in their performance, maybe the absence of Gundogan and the injury of De Bruyne has brought a little setback on the midfield performance of the city side, the Rumour of Toni kroos coming to city is something I don't see happening.

Haaland scored like a machine for Salzburg also in the Champions League, Haaland scored like a machine for Borussia Dortmund in all competitions, and Haaland is scoring like a machine for Manchester City. Saying that you put a player in a team like Everton and then concluding that the player won't be as successful is totally stupid. What is the point of saying that Verstappen would not be as fast in a slower car in the formula 1? I don't get it.

It is not interesting to find out whether a player or a driver is less successful in a worse team or slower car. I wonder why someone would even want to bring up this extremely smart thought and share it.

Of course you are correct Haaland is a very good player, he is one of the first Bundesliga player to come English league and perform the way he does, he is actually one of the best striker on premier league that scores almost all there matches.

However like you said Haaland can never be at a club like Everton because his chances of scoring the way he does on Manchester City will no longer be there because his performance was dependent to the kind of tactics Manchester City has so going to Everton may be very difficult for him to cope.

You have a point but this narration might not be so at all times, the presence of a single player in a club's squad at times could change everything. Many times, the issue of clubs is not the lack of good players, Chealsea is an example to point to right now, it could be psychological as no team would want to sign a nonentity. Even if they are not such seasoned players, if they are well-motivated and their morale is high, they might deliver beyond expectations. The presence of a player could actually do that. This is why I can't agree totally if a good scorer/motivator is in a club, which might change what you considered.

True this is very beyond my expectations, how can a team that usually always depends on one player, namely Kane in several matches or even various seasons can experience a singificant increase like this, even though the player they always make as a goal machine has gone to another league. I think not only am I not surprised to see this improvement from Tottenham, but for most of the people who have speculated and doubted Tottenham. With this incident then I really understand that Tottenham's changes are not always because of Kane there, but indeed as you say that the figure of the coach who really has a big influence in changing the team.

Now Tottenham have really been able to break many bad assumptions from some people with the improvements they have managed to do, honestly I was a little surprised to see Tottenham at the top of the standings, but this is the fact that happened. This season Tottenham is indeed extraordinary, and yes what is very unfortunate when they succeed in terms of progress on the other hand their main players are no longer there. But I'm sure Kane will still be proud that his proud team has been able to get out of the bad zone and is competing for the trophy they always wanted. With this kind of performance condition I will not doubt Tottenham again, against Crystal Palace it will not be too difficult for them.

Everybody is impressed with the performance of Tottenham this season the level of commitment is so high the club that had this kind of consistency last season was Arsenal and Arsenal is not doing badly for itself self but compared to how they played last season saka is not even in form compared to how that boy was on fire looking as if is not in form currently. and am very sure Tottenham will be a concern for plenty of clubs in the Premier League and those who want to win the league must find a way of contending with Tottenham before it gets too late.

Am an Arsenal fan but I feel the win of Arsenal against Manchester City was pure luck and if they don't prepare well against Tottenham it is not going to be an easy one to go down if not comprehended on time.  Their only advice is they should try and maintain that position and take advantage now that Manchester City is not that strong.
