Players are indeed missing, but I would not call the playing team a bad team. They had problems at the beginning of last season as well and then started a winning streak, but often had some crashes that nobody could really explain. I don't know how good Ten Hag really is. It seems that he is not a good motivator and that players sometimes have issues with them. You can then often see that players start playing against a coach instead of for the club. Burnley so far has a single point and yet Manchester United had trouble beating them, but have a look at their formation. That's not a bad formation at all.

The simplest reason is that Ten Hag is missing several key players due to injuries and suspensions. Then from that, Rashford, who performed well last season, seemed to have dropped a lot this season by only scoring 1 goal and 1 assist in 7 matches. Rasmus Højlund has not been in great form either and he is still struggling to find his first goal in 4 matches. Bruno Fernandes, who recorded 8 assists and 8 goals last season, has only recorded 1 assist in 7 matches, so all of Manchester United's important players so far have experienced a decline in form.

Ten Hag certainly still has room to make improvements to his team, including in defense, but he admits that everyone is frustrated due to the less than satisfactory results at the start of this season. Ten Hag must try to be better at planning his game strategy and tactics, but if players like Rashford lose confidence then of course this team will tend to fail.

Brentford dominated the game against Nottingham forest, they had all the possession of the ball, they were away but they still performed well although it e ended in a draw but then I wouldn't say Brent ford played badly as in the second half of the game they did played well with a good attack making the ball most concentrated at the post of the home team.

Nottingham forest has won just one game so far since the season began and had two losses and two draws, they are at the Eleventh position on the standing with just Eight points after Seven games so far, it's not a good result they were getting this season as compared to their results last season, the last time they met with Brentford they lost 2-1 to Brentford.

Brentford had started the season on a really bad not as they have never won a game this season, they lost three games and drew two in their last five games, they are at the thirteenth position on the standing with just seven points from seven games. They may most likely not finish top five if they continue with more losses this season.

Indeed, something like this could happen to a big club, especially Manchester City, we know that any team will definitely have difficulty beating it. However, it must also be acknowledged that Wolves are the first team to beat Manchester City this season.

It is true that even though they lost, Manchester City are still at the top of the standings with 18 points, but this does not make them calm because the two teams from North London, namely Spurs and Arsenal, are now closer to Manchester City with only 1 point.



Anyway, talking about Manchester City, next week they will have a big match against their rival last season, namely Arsenal, and I know that so far Arsenal have never won against Manchester City. However, Manchester City's previous defeat will certainly be an opportunity for the Gunners to overthrow Manchester City at home and at the same time break Manchester City's unbeaten record when they meet Arsenal in that match.

I honestly don't know what exactly happened to Manchester United, which is certain this season they are worse than last season. Now the performance and appearance of Ten Hag's squad is far from consistent, defeats still dominate them on the standings in the few matches they have passed since the beginning of the season. Obviously it is very reasonable, the facts that happened were very far from the expectations of their supporters, let alone Manchester United playing at home but having to experience defeat from a squad that I think is not too strong and ordinary, this is very embarrassing even until the last minute of added time they still have difficulty creating opportunities to produce goals.

The rest of course there must be a very deep disappointment from their supporters due to the results of this completely unexpected match, honestly I also did not expect that until the end of the match Manchester United really could not get a goal back at all even to equalize even though it seemed very difficult. With an embarrassing result like this I hope Ten Hag has to do something to fix it, the prestige of the team is very important.

Lots of people will be losing their bet this weekend. The result of matches yesterday was really unpredictable, no one expected Manchester City to lose to the Wolves. Since Manchester City is really in form and they haven't lost any matches this season, no one was expecting them to close to a club like Wolves. Most people will pick Manchester City to win in their bet. Since Manchester United won Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup, everyone was expecting Manchester United to win them in the Premier League also, but Manchester United was defeated. I wasn't expecting that many goals from Aston Villa, but they surprised everyone. Aston Villa won Brighton 6-1, which was really surprising. Aston Villa performed incredible well in the match.

I think we all now will be enjoying the league, we are now seeing unexpected results from different clubs, the league is now getting tough, and currently, I think no club should be underestimated. The league was just boring before, but now it's getting interesting. I am sure all clubs will try their possible best to improve their performance, strong clubs won't underestimate the weak once.

And its so upsetting to see the choices being made. Its so clear to me that Manchester United is in a free fall. I just have to point out Ten Hag's strange choices! Why in the world is Rashford being picked over Garnacho, especially since it was clear how important Garnacho was against Palace in the EFL? I cant stand seeing Rashford, who isnt playing his best, lose the ball over and over again, making it easy for Palace to counterattack. This is clearly bad, and I dont understand how Ten Hag cant see this. Fans' frustration is understandable given this. Can the team move forward with choices that are so obviously wrong?

Antony is a very important player for Manchester United. Erik Ten Hag will be the happiest that the slander against him has been revealed and the player is found innocent. It was bad for them to have such a player and not be able to use it. I think we can see that they are more organized offensively now.

This shows that nobody is perfect in whatever they are doing. It was even a small club that won Man City and not a big club. However, City has been the most consistent club since the beginning of this season and yesterday was their first lost, they ain't unbeaten anymore.

Football is judged by how many goals that was able to hit the back of the net and not by how beautiful well, your performance was. Luck sometimes is what a club need to win the game and when that lucky isn't there, you will get defeated by even a weakling.

So I will say that Wolve was lucky and that was why they won the game with only their few shots on target, and City lost with so many shots but none could hit the back of the net.

An article from manchester evening has been also explaining it very well.

https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/man-united-antony-girlfriend-news-27820296

I don't even know if antony was temporarily banned by manchester united. The news said that if antony will be investigated by manchester police. The latest news has informed that if his ex girl friend is now accusing him for a physical attack toward him.
Antony's problem has not yet fully solved at this moment. It will be so bad caused by united needs him as soon as possible to face hard fixtures that will come soon.

It's so hard to know which is a legit news these days. There have been many writers were writing fake news for traffic only.

We are aware and know very well, no matter how strong a team is, sometimes they will experience defeat. whether it's a player who is underperforming, a mistake by one of the players, or unlucky factors. Well, that's what happened to City in the match against Wolves. even though, City had 23 total shots, 8 shots on target, but what was more unfortunate was that they didn't have a single big chance. even though in reality, City controlled the match. As for Haaland, in this match he was unable to add to his tally of goals. Fortunately, they are still at the top of the standings even though they are 1 point behind Spurs and Arsenal.

As for Spurs, in the match against Liverpool they were really lucky which ended in victory for them. I don't know how long Ange Postecoglou will keep his team on the right track. However, my prediction is that they will not last long to remain in the top four of the Premier League standings.

Arsenal, I'm happy they won the match and reduced the points gap from City. in the match against Bournnemouth, it seemed like Harvertz was given the opportunity to score from the penalty spot. Thus, it is hoped that he will be even more motivated for future matches.

For United, Ten Hag still has the opportunity to take his team to the level he wants. but before that, he had to solve all the problems that occurred in their camp.
Chelsea, this team is difficult to predict. Moreover, if they continue to rely on Nicolas Jackson as a center forward.
Liverpool, in the next few weeks, they will have difficulty playing their matches. the absence of a player who was given a red card, Gakpo's injury. make, Jugen Klopp has to think about other options.

Once again United lost. This is getting to a point where it is not recoverable and they are going to for sure end the season at a terrible terrible place. Considering they do well one year and bad one year, it can't be about the manager. First they ended up being second in 20-21 season, but then in 21-22 season they ended up 6th, and then last year once again third, and this year they are doing terrible.

As we can see from this type of changes that we are going to end up with some sort of result that would not be sustainable, and they can't keep having one good season and one bad season, they need to find some sort of balance between them and do alright. I would say even being fourth for 4 years in a row would be better than this.

I don't think the Brighton team is weak at all.  This team is strong and has the ability to perform well against big teams . This season too, the team won the away match against manchester united 3–1, beating Newcastle 3–1 . But the problem is that their performance is very erratic. This team is capable of playing well, but cannot maintain consistency. Players need to be more confident. If the players are confident then maybe we will see consistency in their performance. .

We have to admit that Aston Villa played brilliantly in this match. Their performance was mesmerizing. The team won the last match. And Chelsea also beat Aston Villa. The team is now at the fifth place in the points table after getting 16 points in 7 matches.

Experiencing one defeat in the EPL league is not a bad thing for a big club, after all, Manchester City has had enough consecutive wins from the several matches they faced at the start of this season. There are times when they lose or get a draw, no one will ever know about that, anyone who bets on Wolves with big betting odds will definitely win big.

We don't know the exact reason why Manchester City lost, but I'm sure that Guardiola has mobilized his team to continue winning, but they are also human, they must feel tired, so it's normal to experience defeat, however, with Manchester City's defeat, competition at the top of the standings is now getting tighter. this season. BTW, even though they lost, Manchester City is still at the top of the standings.

Of course if the referee is not wrong then Liverpool will get points. But how to follow up with this referee error? Even though it has used Var, it seems that there are still enough weaknesses that can occur. How many sophisticated tools if the final decision on people can still be potentially wrong. But the situation should have the match paused, so that the referee could carefully review the var.

The PGMOL have released a statement acknowledging that a "significant human error occurred" when Luis Diaz' goal was disallowed for offsides.

Did you read something that Fabrizio Romano posted on platform X two days ago?
Antony appears to have been training with his teammates at Carrington and is likely to be in the Manchester United squad for the next match.

So of course this is good news because Ten Hag will likely get new resources to play better in the next match. Ten Hag is still trying to get the best form out of his team at the start of the season, but things are not going smoothly for him.

I quote it for you here: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1707698055623954792

I feel that Brentford didn't start this season well, because in fact, up to week 7, Brentford has only won once and Brentford has drawn more often than not so far this season. But yeah, while for Nottingham at least they have put in a great effort so far. Because, in reality, Nottingham is still trying hard in this match even though Nottingham is only playing with 10 players. But at least, at this moment, Nottingham has a better position than Brentford in the standings, and at least that is also a great achievement for Nottingham so far this season.

Haha,,,, I thought it was going to be 3-1 but we know Manchester City will have to be unlucky even if they play like they keep attacking while Wolves with few shots are able to win, I said this is quite dramatic, the Manchester duo must lose in the same week.

This season the points will not be too far away it will be close.
Spurs if not only Liverpool players do not come out two people, it will definitely not be a Spurs victory but lucky enough at the end.

Chelsea and Man United will be bottom or middle of the pack? I don't think I'll see them above the top 4, if Liverpool it's still very possible, they lost last night because they were short of players due to red cards.

It was surprising to see City lose against Wolves. But that's their match statistics. City were unlucky and Wolves got a lucky win with minimal statistics.
What really surprised us again was when Simon Hooper trended on Twitter with an edited look wearing a Spurs jersey.

Who knows, Manchester United and Chelsea are too late to get hot in the competition for the trophy. Maybe they will start in the second half of the season.
Liverpool are still on track to win the trophy because the difference in points with City after being defeated by Tottenham is only two points.

Two coaches which done impressive performance in this season were face to face and Emery U having amazing time as his team Aston Villa completely bring down Brighton and then give them lesson of the season with the score of 6 - 1 even many were expecting win but mostly were not having any idea that Aston Villa can win this match by this margin with this win now they are at the 5th spot and Brighton is out of the top ranks which is not good for them after having impressive start of this season now they have another challenging match against Liverpool which is angry after foul lost against Tottenham and Brighton have to well-prepared for this match.

Aston Villa are surely at their best and now have fair chance for staying at the top for few more weeks, but now they are also having next challenging match against Wolves at Molineux Stadium which is at the moon after beating league leaders Manchester City.
