Well lately I've seen many people who are in favor of Tottenham's performance, you may be right that they should change coach just like MU did and I'm sure they will do better, but still I see that there are many hopes for Tottenham and they have many good hopes for everyone, I think this is good, in case it happens, the truth is I would like them to rise in rank at least to 6th place because for this team it is not bad at all, Aston Villa could, if this team could, which for me is not as good as MU, like Tottenham then yes it can be achieved.
Last season Tottenham finished the season in the top 5 and now they are temporarily in 6th place, I don't think there is big change and Ange Postecoglou has only been in charge of Tottenham for one season so if they don't improve this season to at least be in the top 4 or 3 then that is stug performance.
It is indeed difficult to be able to surpass the top 3 team because the performance of the three is always good, but for now I very impressed with Chelsea performance which is able to occupy 3rd place for the standings and they really have significant increase in the quality of their play.
It is possible that Chelsea will be tough competitor in the fight for the championship title.

The only way for Tottenham to start playing well and be able to win trophies is to change the coach, Tottenham coach is not good enough to handle the team, The coach has been in the team for the past 3 years and Tottenham's performance has not changed, Tottenham will start a season with a good performance but after they play like 5 to 6 games everything will change, they will start playing like a team that doesn't know how to play well, Tottenham has defeat Manchester City this season but when it comes to small team Tottenham will find it difficult to defeat them.

And about Manchester United, I think Manchester United will prove that they are back to their normal way and they can show that they are the best team in the Premier League, we can see that from the training Manchester United players are happy with their new Coach, Manchester United should try and make sure the team stand in a good position even if they did not win the League, we all know that Manchester United can not win the League but at least they should win the Europa League and make a good position in the League table.

In my opinion, changing coaches is not the only solution to improve Tottenham's performance, Tottenham has always been a good club but they do not have the potential to become champions like Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Man U, or Chelsea. While Manchester United is an elite Premier League club with many titles they have won, of course this club is trying hard to do anything to restore their good performance like before, such as changing coaches. But, if we compare Man United's previous performance when coached by Ten Hag, Tottenham is still better than them, Tottenham's problem is just a lack of consistency.

I am satisfied with Tottenham's performance this season. In several matches, we have seen Tottenham's very strong gameplay. Tottenham is capable of performing well. However, the problem is that Tottenham's performance is not consistent. If this performance was consistent, we would have seen Tottenham in the top four of the table this season. Tottenham is currently in sixth place in the table.

Tottenham is the highest scorer so far this season. Tottenham has scored 27 goals in 12 matches. Liverpool has scored 24 goals in 12 matches. This shows that Tottenham has the ability to do better. Tottenham can only climb to the top of the table if Tottenham's performance is consistent.

A strange question, and accordingly an obvious answer from Guardiola. If the team's midfield is losing and cannot create enough chances for the striker, then naturally he does not score goals. Another thing is that I saw Haaland's statistics and he has problems with converting chances - if I remember correctly, he scored 2 goals while "wasting" 8 Xg. But everyone has temporary slumps, and at the moment the whole City is playing terribly.
Haaland cannot do without De Bruyne, especially when the other wingers don't understand him. If you look at this past weekend match, Savinho couldn't work with Haaland and that frustrated him. Haaland is only a finisher, give him the ball to strike inside the back of the net is what he is good at. If you look at City, the midfield is weak and it's also affecting the strikers.

Yes, Haaland is a striker and his job is to finish. And if the midfield doesn't provide the game for him, then he can't be blamed, just like the most brilliant goalkeeper will let in a lot of goals if the defense plays poorly. Football is a team game, that's obvious.
But there are also some fair parts to Haaland's criticism, for example that in important "big" games he doesn't show himself as he should and often just gets lost on the field. In this he is definitely inferior to Ronaldo, Lewandowski, Mbappe.
Indeed, Haaland is an extraordinary striker, but I do not argue that football is a team game in which each line strengthens each other to produce the best outcomes. A player efficiency cannot be overemphasised without considering his team colleagues on the field, especially the midfield which has the responsibility of making the chances. This means that at organisational level, when the entire project is developed as a team, reaching the maximum potential of a player like Haaland, is possible. Still, it cannot be denied that there are those times that he comes under pressure, and the intensity of which tend to be higher during strategic game moments.

Constructive criticism of Haaland is sometimes the primary stimulus for further growth in himself, especially in view of big meetings that require more activities and courage on the football pitch. Bigger commitment, even if opportunities are not make, can be a very big step in demonstrating his key person in a team. If strategy can be better aligned and all agents cooperate more, Haaland’s extraordinary talents can further be optimally utilised to make even better and more consistent contributions across seasons and, indeed, important matches.

Liverpool just beat Real Madrid, maybe not as easily as the score suggests but they did, and the gap between City and Liverpool is 8 right now, Liverpool has 31 points while City has only 23 points. Which is a shocker because City is still second ranked team, goes to show you that league is a lot more competitive now, 23 points in 12 games and still second ranked is a lucky situation for city.

So if City wins, the gap would close down to 5 points, but if Liverpool wins the gap would go to 11 points, and considering it took City 12 games to get 23 points, we could safely assume on average it would take 5 games to get 11 points give or take, and Liverpool has to lose those games as well. Do not look at it just mathematically possible, in that case only 3 would be enough, but City loses points too, so I would say this would be very good situation for Liverpool, and they would all but guarantee their title unless something major goes on after this game. LFC has to get a win here, it's the most important game of the season by far.
We have to extend this mathematics in order to clearly understand what will happen between Manchester City and Liverpool.
We have to seriously consider that Manchester City has been on a lossing streak. It could be that Liverpool will be their turning point.
We also need to understand that Liverpool actually put alot of energy in order to win against Real Madrid. This could also affect their performance. Who knows if few of Guardiola's boys are back from injury.
That's right, Man City also has the opportunity to secure full points when visiting Anfield, and it is certain that Pep Guardiola will try to end his 6-match winless streak. It is certainly not easy, because Liverpool are in their best form. We know that Pep Guardiola chances of leading his team to victory are not higher than Liverpool, but what is clear is that this is a match that I think will be troublesome for both teams. If Rodri returns to the starting XI, then Man City chances may increase. Overall, Man City will try to maintain their chances of retaining the trophy, if they lose points again, the competition for the trophy may end sooner, because Liverpool will lead the standings alone.

Yes, the English league is indeed a very tight football league at the moment, so it is not surprising that even a slight decline in performance for the teams competing in the English league will definitely have a huge impact on their position in the standings. For this reason, consistency and performance improvement must continue to be carried out by every team competing in the English league. Apart from that, talking about Manchester United, I think it is correct to say that Amorim's team is in a phase of performance improvement. Because as we know, when Manchester United was coached by Ten Hag, their performance was very bad. So with this, it is natural that Manchester United is called a team that is currently improving its performance. Moreover, currently Manchester United is being coached by Amorim, who only recently served as coach.

But I personally don't know what Manchester United will be like in Amorim's hands. Either it will go in a positive direction or it will go in a negative direction. So if I say that Manchester United is currently on the rise, I don't think that's accurate. Because we don't know what Manchester United's performance will be like after being coached by Amorim. Maybe we can see his performance when Manchester United face Ipswich Town in a few days. Even that cannot be an appropriate benchmark, because as we know, the quality of the squad owned by Ipswich Town is of course very different from the quality of the squad owned by Manchester United. So even if Manchester United wins that match, it cannot be said that Manchester United's performance is good. Therefore, we have to wait for Manchester United's matches against truly comparable teams to measure how well Manchester United will perform after being coached by Amorim.

You're right, although Amorim is an Intelligent guy and I think he'll continue Doing what Van Nistelroy left him, clearly the Playing scheme that he imposed Worked very well for the whole Team , even those that I Always see that Decline in their performance in defense I Saw Better , the team is Going through an Improvement , the good Management of anyone who gets in there is widely noticeable , so given this I hope that in the Games with the strongest teams they can make the difference , I think that the MU and all the fans Deserve it , I see that there is a much more Active Bruno , I see Garnacho with more Intentions to score goals more often , all this is clearly seen.

The Manchester City stared their performance this season everybody was having hope for them that they will keep their mentality so strong so that they can able to catch up Liverpool from the top of standing, but due to their inconsistency they have never make that happen, all of their players look unserious.

Liverpool leading the premier with high points, and the team I’m having hope for to come and over head the Liverpool from the table is Arsenal this, because wot the way I’m seeing their performances since when they came back form the international break their they’ve really improved their performances and made it so standard.

As I said before Manchester City will not be able to pursue Liverpool because they have problems with defense lines and their efforts will be in vain if there is no change there, if you check the standings then you will know that currently Manchester City is the worst team between the top 10 because they conceded the most so what we expect from them in this situation? yeah in my opinion Manchester City can wait until the transfer window is open in January.

Liverpool showed an incredible performance this season.
Apart from the victory Liverpool got in this game, Liverpool did played a very beautiful game, they were able to really show Madrid that they came prepared and they are the host so they have got that edg which shouldn't and cannot be neglected.
Indeed, well, Liverpool not only played beautifully, but also incredibly and deadly. I really hate this because I am a fan of Real Madrid, but I admit that Liverpool's performance was really good, their preparation, their winning spirit, and their desire to defeat Real Madrid were really visible, and they could express it. Seeing how their expressions of victory were when the final whistle blew, yes, they really deserved their victory. On the other hand, I do admit that Real Madrid was not in their good form and condition, and this will continue, because more and more main players are injured.

Yes, Haaland is a striker and his job is to finish. And if the midfield doesn't provide the game for him, then he can't be blamed, just like the most brilliant goalkeeper will let in a lot of goals if the defense plays poorly. Football is a team game, that's obvious.
Personally, Halland is still a good and productive striker, he is still the top scorer and has scored many goals this season, so when Man City is in a slump, he still contributes many goals for the club. It's just that Man City as a whole is not doing well.

Tottenham are currently in 10th place in the table. But Tottenham have the potential to climb up the table. I think we can see Tottenham in the top 6 of the table. Tottenham's squad is not weak this season. But they need to bring stability in their overall performance. I would say Tottenham are stronger than Aston Villa.

I am looking forward to seeing how Manchester United perform under the new coach. Manchester United have a strong squad, it is true. There are many talented players in Manchester United's squad. If the new coach can bring stability in Manchester United's overall performance, then Manchester United has the potential to be in the top 5 of the table.

I've seen that a lot of people have the same opinion about Tottenham, for me it's a plus that this team is doing well, I believe and I know that the things that are coming for them will be great , even if they manage to beat teams like Liverpool , Arsenal if they can position themselves in a privileged place and the truth is I like it because it makes them more competitive, as for MU, well, I have a lot of expectations, when they were under Ten Hag's direction I didn't have one bit of faith , because they knew they were falling into the abyss, even so things went well with a new coach who is changing everything for them, and well, I hope to see these teams fighting for that top 5.


Tottenham is that side, which usually performs over expectations, especially against the big guns. This season, they have shown their capacity as a serious challenger in the Premier League.. This season, they have shown their capacity as serious challengers in the Premier League. The big win over Manchester City some time ago is clear evidence that they have great potential to shake the dominance of teams like Liverpool and Arsenal. With a more organized game, Tottenham can be a real threat to anyone, like Nottingham Forest who was able to beat Liverpool even though by a narrow score.

Manchester United faces a more intricate situation. Ruben Amorim has his sights set on returning to the top four with Manchester United so that they can compete in the Champions League next season. But to improve the chances of achieving that goal, the team needs to improve—especially in game-by-game consistency.

Manchester City players ought not to make such complaints because they are not playing more matches than other European counterparts. They are playing the tournaments they qualified for just like other teams so they have to change their mentality else they will keep failing like they are doing now. I know injuries is a major challenge confronting the team but they can always adjust to remain competitive because there is never any match they played with less players as a result of those injuries.
The Manchester City stared their performance this season everybody was having hope for them that they will keep their mentality so strong so that they can able to catch up Liverpool from the top of standing, but due to their inconsistency they have never make that happen, all of their players look unserious.

Liverpool performance may give them the Premier League title this season if they are able to keep consistency. They are currently at this stage; they are leading already. They should continue securing more points so they can go far and lead with many points. They should be able to use the inconsistency that Manchester City have shown now to improve and secure the top spot, because if Manchester City get back to their form, I believe their plan of getting the title this season will not come true, but if Liverpool continue doing well now, I think it will favour them.

Right from the first times that Haaland joined Manchester city. When he was interviewed about how long he will stay in Manchester city. He said he will stay for quite a long time, definitely his longest club.
When asked if he is confident that he will continue to score good amounts of goals. He said yes, but with conditions. The conditions was if KDB will remain in the club and continue to feed him with the ball. He didn't hide it.
We all know that Haaland is not like Kane or Benz of Real Madrid that will return to the midfield to possess the ball. If Manchester City continue to be weak in the midfield, Haaland will score small amount of goals.

Liverpool have the advantage in this match, they have the squad depth to rotate players effectively and maintain their competitiveness. Manchester City players complained about the number of games they have to play because of the new Champions League format. I think the players are not ready mentally and physically for the busy calendar, it’s no surprise that they are fatigue and are sustaining injuries. I think the number of fixtures should be reduced from next season so the players w can be fit and maintain the quality of the game.
I think a lot of people make Real Madrid too strong and they try to weaken them by combining with every other team. A lot of people predicted the victory of Real Madrid in this match as well, but I had hope and full confidence that Liverpool would win this match. In this match, Liverpool won this match by scoring 2 goals. I don't see Manchester City as convinced because if they were a strong and match-winning team, I would have agreed with them. I would consider giving them a blow because their next matches are going to be very strong and their record is not strong enough that it won't matter if they lose this match. Whatever their problem is, Manchester City are still not preparing to be good, nor are they playing games hoping to win matches.  If they start working hard now, they can be a strong team.

I am also optimistic that Man City can spring a surprise to kickstart their resurgence of course a lot of soccer analyst and pundits must have written them off based on their dip in form and streak of losses,  of course a draw isn't bad for Man City though they might win the match and I don't expect Liverpool to be consistent  in all their subsequent matches definitely they are going to drop points against even some mid table teams recall Nothingham Forest broke their unbeaten run so no team is unbearable, however Liverpool should not be overconfident that they had already secured their 3 points.

There is no any surprises left in the bad that Manchester City can present to any one right now, if not that they have had a good start of the season, the way they are playing right now they are just like one relegation team that crawl out of the Championship and it's finding it hard to blend in the Premier League, that's how they are right now. Even if they manage to make it back, there is high chance that they are going to flop again and the chance of going for Liverpool place will reduce even more.

If  Liverpool wins them which is highly possible, they will sink further because the last time check when Manchester City were in good form, they didn't win Liverpool but draw them, what do yiu think will be their faith now that they are not in good place, they are going to suffer more here. If Liverpool takes away that 3 points from them, they will have 11 points margin which will take Manchester City 4 games to win and Liverpool has to lose that amount, at this point it's safe to say no Premeir League title for Guardiola this season.

I don't want to believe completely that it's all about Liverpool here, city too has got a good squad and depth except for the fact that a jey player as rodri who is one of their play maker will be absent, Manchester isn't in that very terrible form and this is premier League where they are rated as almost equals, I know I Liverpool is at advantage as the host but I'm a bit optimistic about Manchester City hoping to get a draw if possible because if they loose this, it's going to affect their position on the table and threaten their chances of been in the title race this season for the premiere league.

Their position and the fight for the title race has already been threatened for a while now, I don’t know how much more they need to know that with what they’re playing, they won’t be able to win the league title this season and will just end up in some runner up or champions league position in a best instance for them. Liverpool are showing the best performance in the league games and would want to continue to be consistent in order to maintain this position in the fight for the league title. Manchester City may not be that bad that we'll exempt them from the league title race, but until they show a convincing performance, I don’t think they can be able to do anything to persuade the people that they’re very much ready and interested for the title race.

We all know that Liverpool is in their best performance this season because out of the 12 games that they played, they lost 1 and drew 1. So we are not supposed to keep thinking that they will not be able to win against Manchester City in the game; moreover, the absence of Rodri has affected Manchester City more than we all expected, and viewing from the performance of Liverpool yesterday, I will say that there is no way Manchester City will be able to win in the game unless for luck, and that luck must be very critical. So for me, I think Liverpool can start celebrating from now that they have gotten their 3 points in the game, and for Manchester City, they should be ready to leave the position for either Chelsea or Arsenal because I don’t think their performance will be up to the tasks of that position.
