Rasmus Hojlund just gave his answer when asked about Erling Haaland, he didn't even hesitate to admit that Erling Haaland is at another level and currently he is not comparable to him. Rasmus Hojlund also added that Erling Haaland is the best striker in the world and as one of his rivals in the EPL, of course Rasmus Hojlund's maturity in responding to this should be appreciated. Since the beginning of Rasmus Hojlund's arrival, he has always been compared to Erling Haaland and of course the fans of these two teams will always provide support for each player.

On the other hand, of course we will also see the two of them competing on the EPL top scorer this season, but to approach Erling Haaland's level it will take Rasmus Hojlund a lot longer. It would be very nice if both of them were at the same level and the future of the two Manchester teams would be completely in the hands of a talented generation.

I remember MU fans were over proud toward him and those fans were comparing haaland to the hojlund which is a non sense comparison at this moment. Hojlnud obviously right about that if haaland was in another level yet haaland's performance is dropping a bit due to the lack of creative attacking midfielder in the club. Haaland has won treble winners last season with manchester city. I think that city is likely trying to defend its trophy for this season. Hojlund needs to prove himself to make at least 30 goals total in a season to compete with haaland.
Hojlund is good and his dribbling is so brilliant but we can't even deny that if he is still far from haaland at this moment. The thing that lacks from him is about good positioning.
Hojlund needs to positioning himself in the right place when he was aiming to receive the deflected ball. He needs also to learn from the senior to be a better striker for the future. So far, hojlund is only a sense recruitment by united while the rest are just dumb transfers from MU.
Onana, mason, reguilon were failed transfers.

Harry Maguire told everyone in an open statement that he would fight for his shirt and I guessed he was joking but now is the real deal. He recorded outstanding performance in the previous games featured for Manchester United, quite amazing. This is a strong evidence that portrays he is back to good working shape. Harry Maguire is back to his peak after facing crucial criticism in league games. There's alot he could offers in the defendlines of Manchestet United because injures have affected his teammates. Erik Ten Hag and his the team hoped for him to do a great job now that's he back to good form.
He can say it to hide fact that he wants to leave the club or he actually wants to fight for a position in Manchester United defense system. Though he has willingness and ambition to fight for his position, with Ten Hag's tactical philosophy, chance for Maguire is very slim.

With some matches and opportunities given by Ten Hag, I can not say Maguire proved his ability well and his performances only makes his chance becomes smaller and slimmer with time. This season can be the end for his career in Old Trafford and I am very surprising to see he still stays in Manchester United. Euro 2024 will come next summer and if Maguire won't be careful, won't have chances to play regularly, his position in England national team can be at risk too.

Andre Onana is really harming the Red Devils with his simple mistakes. But there is nothing to do about it for now. I don't think they can find a better goalkeeper in the middle of the season either. Actually there is still de Gea available who can be signed back. But it looks like the Red Devils have already lost their interest in him.

Besides I can't blame everything on Onana. There is a big problem in general of the squad right now. Even Rashford is doing really bad this season. There isn't the same productivity by him now. The defense line is also quite weak due to struggling with injuries.
Onana actually made some mistakes and contributed to some losses of Manchester United but it's unfair to say everything is his responsibility. At beginning, it is wrong to think that a single player, a goalkeeper can improve a defense system that has many holes. Manchester United's defensive strength comes from many positions, goalkeeper, defenders and midfielders or if seriously we can also say players at their front line too.

There are reports that VAR officials Darren England and Daniel Cook who took part in last month's fixture between Tottenham and Liverpool will return to Premier League duty this weekend. The errors committed was terrible and it cost Liverpool a point or more which as a result made both Referees, England and Cook to be dropped from last EPL weekend's fixture list. This thing keeps reoccurring and nothing seems to be done about it.

Lee mason was dropped from the PGMOL after that blunder last season vs Brentford. Guess what?? He has been reinstated this season. If they don't investigate PGMOL and people's fathers go to jail for match fixing like they did in Italy, mistakes will continue to happen because it seems powers that be are pulling the strings from upstairs.
PGMOL have been doing this nonsense for too long and it's time clubs stand up for against this organization. It’s so annoying that the Referees know the rules yet they seem to deliberately flout it knowing they’ll only get a match ban. PGMOL needs to do more.

Underestimate- nothing
With Andre Onana, I don't think Manchester united will develop good performance in this season because the goalkeeper is not displaying what will make the fans to relax on him when the team started meeting big teams like Manchester city, Chelsea and Liverpool which we know that they are very strong in premier league competition. If Manchester united coach fail to work on this poor performance before the end of the tournament, he can receive a sack letter, because the team has adopted potential players in this season but there is no improvement in their matches. I came to discovered that if Manchester united defenders is good, their goalkeeper will not experience those poor performance, which Manchester united defenders have a strong role to play to move the team to another next level in their remaining matches.



Manchester United needs a better number if they want a good performance and not only about the number one but also about their defense at least they should do something about their defense or get a new number one, Manchester United fans are always scared whenever they have a match between any kind of club, their chances of winning might be zero. if they even meet against clubs like Chelsea it is even better than meeting clubs like Manchester City or Liverpool or even Tottenham or Arsenal. and am sure Ten is trying his best but he needs to put in more effort.

exactly what I replied to if the problem of the club is not tackled from the root then they are not serious about making progress this season, this season The Red Devils are not displaying well again, I know Onanas also have a big role to play but is not all onana fault since football is more of teamwork. if signing de Gea will bring back their honor then they should go for him or even better. let us see if they will improve later. and another thing is that sincerely did not see this season turning out like this.

That is not true, Man City was defeated by Arsenal just once and it was 10 days ago which is still their first and only match together this season. Maybe you mistook it for the Community Shield game, this happened before the EPL started and can't be counted as part of this season. Everyone has their opinion though, and for me, I will choose Man City over Arsenal multiple times over. My reasons are simple, the team is better and more consistent, only they are not focused for now, this happened last season and they overcame it, the absence of Kevin De Bruyne is another issue right now. This is not peculiar to Man City, clubs do have those moments, the Arsenal time is coming as well when their morale will just drop. I wonder what Man City will do to them to avenge the mere 1-0 win that time.

But with Chelsea, Newcastle and Brighton narration, I agree 100%, Chelsea is not that club anymore, this is in spite of the huge amount spent in the last and this season. A very lesser club could beat them, so I won't blink to pick Arsenal over them on Saturday.


When Manchester City was defeated by Arsenal, I didn't think that Arsenal was stronger than City, even though we all know how that 1 goal happened, it was like luck hitting a City player and ending in a goal.
I'm pretty sure revenge will be taken if City still has a scheduled match against Arsenal again. Manchester City will respond with more than 1 goal.
But if we talk about Chelsea's match against Arsenal, it is certain that Arsenal will win because the depth of players between these two clubs is very different and the players are superior to Arsenal, so even though they are playing away, Arsenal will be favored by the bookies with very high odds @2.31 is very good.

But recently Harry Maguire's performance has actually improved slightly. For example, in the last few Man United matches and in the England vs Italy match. I think Maguire has worked harder recently after receiving a lot of criticism both from fans and from several football commentators.

In fact, the Man United club was also going to release Maguire in the transfer market yesterday. But I still remember at that time Maguire was still adamant about wanting to be at Old Trafford. So maybe now he has to prove his performance to be better. And I think it's all starting to get better now. But if you think about the many mistakes he made, it's really bad.

Chelsea's two games ended with 3 points. They are in the spirit to win back home. Nothing is impossible, indeed Chelsea were not in good shape starting last season. But being overconfident with Arsenal might leave you disappointed. But maybe because Arsenal haven't lost it will make them more confident and they think Chelsea are not as difficult as Tottenham, Man City.  That can be a problem during the game due to overconfidence.

Admitting who's ahead of you kills no one. There should be no room for Competition and Comparisons. Erling Haaland though had a very good environment to develop and works with the best manager in the World.
Erling Haaland without Manchester City remains a top striker too, but Manchester City brought out the demons in him. He is pacy, strong and intelligent. You have all you want in him.

Erling Haaland currently on a goal drought but he would still score soon enough. Hojlund needs a set of players that plays to his strength not being selfish just exactly the way Marcus Rashford does.
It takes time, it's just his first season, he'll grow into that lets hope.

Harry Maguire is not a defender anymore. He is someone who you would like to see in the outfit of your opponent, not yours. After so many incredible mistakes that he made, I am definitely surprised that he is still in the Manchester United squad. And the thing is, he still plays regularly as the first-team player. That actually amazes me a lot. And meanwhile, we have the quote saying that he is still a very important player for the squad. Honestly, I think the coach has gone mad. He should be checked if his mental health is actually okay or not.
I was also quite surprised by this, because it seemed as if the mistakes that Harry Maguire had made at Manchester United were very common, even though it was clearly very detrimental to Manchester United. But somehow the Manchester United coach's mind still places him as a regular player at Manchester United until this season so that Manchester United is still in a bad position as if there is no significant improvement for the team. So I also can't imagine what is going through the mind of the Manchester United coach now.

There are many problems that must be sorted out but im concerning about the defenders which have always become the main concern. Ten hag shll put all of his focus toward how to solve the problems occured on the defenders. There are so many incompetence defenders at this moment.
Ten hag needs to get rid of them all. Ten hag needs also to sell mostly of them during the winter transfer window. It's likely that if everything about ten hag is still remain unclear at this moment. The goal keeper is not a party that must be blamed anytime.

The defenders are also contributing a lot to save the goal net of manchester united and so, i dunno why people keep put their main concern into the onana.
Let onana to stay even longer in the club before try to judge him. We don't even know if he will be able to perform better than before. Im concering about how ten hag is not even putting his focus onto the defenders.

This is most important thing that needs to get more attention from him.

It is commonplace but there must be a scapegoat in this especially with what Maguire did last season he was one of the players with the most mistakes and maybe even with the worst performance so it is difficult not to blame all the mistakes he made that made Manchester United lose a lot of points.

We must realize that as long as there are many fans who expect a club to develop well then in every defeat there must be someone to blame. That is a common thing that happens too and not only at Manchester United but in other clubs and even other leagues like that so with Maguire's condition that always performs poorly then he cannot do much apart from receiving blasphemy every time he makes a mistake when given the opportunity because his performance is also not developing.

It is very unethical to continue blaming just one player, even if the mistake comes from another player, which can be seen from this season. Rashford often makes more mistakes than Maguire. In other words, every moment Maguire is not always the one to blame. I admit that in the past I often blamed him, but this season several players such as Rashford's selfishness, Onana's unsuitability as a goalkeeper, Sancho's problems with Ten Hag and Antony whose case has not been resolved yet prove that there are individual problems that are making Manchester United performance even worse.

I also want to add Glazer for not being serious about managing a team as big as Manchester United. It should have been better for the club to change hands, but in reality we saw the Glazers decision to sell just 25% to Sir Jim.

I feel a little sorry for Rasmus Hojlund, even though he has quite good quality but unfortunately his team mates cannot fully support him, currently United's Manchester United performance is very bad and this happens on all fronts so that quality players like Rasmus Hojlund are not able to do much.
So I think it is very unfair to compare Rasmus Hojlund with Haaland because both players are in different places.
Erling Haaland is a little lucky because he plays in the Manchester City team with full support from his teammates so Erling Haaland can bring out all the abilities he has so that Erling Haaland's true quality can be seen.
This is also what I have in mind when talking about the two players, Rasmus Højlund and Erling Haaland have the same playing character where they are very dependent on their teammates and the difference is that Haaland gets that at Manchester City while Højlund gets it quite minimally, especially as both players play in the same league at different times where Haaland is already more experienced in this league while Højlund has only played a few times so he still really needs full adaptation until he can show what the club expects.
Manchester United bought Højlund is priced quite high and of course the club's talent scouts are aware of the potential that this player can show, but everyone needs time and immediately judging that he will not develop in this team after just a few games is quite unfair in my opinion.

Well, Speaking of Erik Ten Hag, glancing at the new stickers, it could be that he thinks the biggest weak point is on the front line.
In fact, every department at Man United is currently grappling with issues. I'm particularly dismayed by the fragility of Man United's defense. This is what has made Onana the scapegoat for the numerous losses suffered by Man United this season.

Furthermore, the creativity of the midfield isn't operating efficiently, resulting in the strikers struggling to find good goal-scoring opportunities. I vividly recall the egotism displayed by Bruno Fernandes when CR7 returned to Old Trafford. Yes, Bruno seemed more interested in elevating his own popularity rather than providing quality assists to Ronaldo. This is a problem where everyone aiming to shine at Man United should prioritize the team's success.

If these internal issues aren't addressed, even the most expensive players won't be the solution to Man United's current poor performance.
I always feel a little annoyed when I remember Cristiano Ronaldo's moments when he was still playing at Manchester United. Well not just once or twice. But very often we see Cristiano Ronaldo in a very good position to receive a pass. But the Manchester United players ignored Cristiano Ronaldo and instead passed to players who were in difficult positions. Or they will execute by themselves and fail. That was a funny and also annoying moment for anyone who watched it. So there are many short video clips that capture those moments. And yes, Bruno Fernandes, as a player from the same country, namely Portugal, didn't seem to like Cristiano Ronaldo's presence at that time. And at that time many people scapegoated Cristiano Ronaldo. So the point is that the individualism at the Manchester United club at that time was too strong. And this makes team collaboration worse. Well, this season it seems the same thing is happening as then. I hope they can have better teamwork. Because basically Bruno Fernandes and Rashford and their friends are very great players. When they can build good cooperation then they can become a great team. Casemiro even seems to have experienced a decline this season.

After defeating Manchester City, Arsenal is more confident than before. I am very certain that Arsenal will defeat Chelsea  next week.
Arsenal's win against City was so important for them, they finally got to defeat City after such a long time and it will give them confidence in the league as well, they are strongly amongst the favorites to win the league this season. Arsenal ought to defeat Chelsea this weekend, but i am sensing an upset, everyone has already written Chelsea off in that game, we all think it should be an easy win for Arsenal, but maybe Pochettino's boys would spring a surprise in that game and come away with something from it, i'd keep my finger's crossed on that one.
Do not forget that Arsenal has defeated Manchester City twice this season so they weren't afraid of  Manchester city at the first place. But their ability to defeat Manchester city gave them another level of confidence to pursue the title league and not only to win Chelsea.
Arsenal Vs Chelsea is not giving me much anxiety because Chelsea is no longer regarded as a big club by me. If it was Arsenal Vs Newcastle or Arsenal Vs Brighton, I would have expected a more fierce meeting.
But then Chelsea and Arsenal are good in playing draws and it might repeat again this time around if time is not taken. I do not also know if Saka will be available for the meeting, if yes, there might not be a surviving chance for Chelsea.
That is not true, Man City was defeated by Arsenal just once and it was 10 days ago which is still their first and only match together this season. Maybe you mistook it for the Community Shield game, this happened before the EPL started and can't be counted as part of this season.

Currently, the quality of Rasmus Hojlund and Haaland is very different. But I like how Rasmus Hojlund responded to this. But actually Rasmus Hojlund is still young. He is still 20 years old. So he still has the potential to develop to a better level. But I doubt he will match Haaland's level. Because Haaland at the age of 20 is already very productive in scoring goals. In almost every match he always scores a goal. But this season, Haaland has experienced a slight decline. But he is still the best striker currently in the EPL.
I fully appreciate the mature attitude that Rasmus Hojlund has even though he is always compared to Haaland but he has full awareness here, I mean when Hojlund is criticized for being compared to Haaland he is always not angry but it is considered as criticism which gives him the enthusiasm to compete fairly with Haaland to become the top scorer in the EPL even though Hojlund is not as strong as Haaland, but if high enthusiasm is accompanied by great ambition it can definitely make Hojlund and I also see that this season, Haaland has a slightly unstable performance and he is not like last season who had very big ambition or just because he lost De Bruyne, who always collaborates with Haaland in every match because De Bruyne is one of the players who is very close to Haaland.

Chelsea is not winning against Arsenal. I am pretty confident about Arsenal winning this match. Chelsea has been able to win two matches in a row, but this is going to bring an end to their winning streak. Arsenal is definitely competing for the English Premier League title. And they are not going to let things go easily at all. I am pretty sure that they are going to win against Chelsea, the bigger question is about how many goals. I predict it is going to be something like 2–0 at least. I believe that is going to be the list goal difference between Chelsea and Arsenal and it is going to be in favour of Arsenal for sure.
It is very possible, Arsenal is in high confidence after winning the match against Manchester City and also Arsenal's performance is quite impressive this season so it is possible that they can win the match against Chelsea next weekend with a convincing score even though the match is played at Chelsea's home ground.
I think it is quite reasonable that Arsenal are the favorites in this match because the performance/quality of the Chelsea team is far below Arsenal.
I also have no doubts that Arsenal can achieve a convincing victory in this match.
For me I don’t see any games against Chelsea as a walkover regardless of their position on the table because Arsenal know the history and how the traditional big teams can turn it on when it’s a head to head. I dont think the game will be an easy game as people expect.. Chelsea's numbers have not been bad atall.. Numbers wise, they might click soon. In fact, they are underperforming. Plus its a derby again.

Honestly I’m not sure blowing them away is something Arsenal can easily do. Although they beat them 0-1 at Stanford  Bridge last season. They're not as bad as people make them to be. Imo, they're a better side than Manchester United, their problems are in the final third - they lack efficiency.
One can never be too confident with a big away game, big teams may stink all season but will always want to use the big games to prove something. I hope that Arsenal assert themselves & come back with the needed victory.
