I love the fact that Manchester City is currently struggling in the English Premier League especially now that some of their star players are out injured. I think this vindicates the claim by many that Pep Guardiola can't actually manage a team without star players. Since Rodri got injured, Manchester City have been struggling and have now lost their last five games in all competitions. At a time Manchester City is struggling, I think Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal are the other three contenders that'll challenge league leaders for the league title this season

You should have know better that Manchester City are not in a very good form and may not perform very well in this match especially when they’re playing with Tottenham Hotspur who have not being great this season but already picked form in their past few matches. I was never expecting an easy win for Manchester City even if they were going to win the match. Tottenham Hotspur was the most favourite in this game but many will look to see maybe Manchester City will get their form back and win this match. Hard luck for them as this has also end their unbeaten home game of 52 matches in the premier league.


They have to be more careful in their coming matches because they’re already in the danger zone and any more lose can cause them to fall down the table more and we’ll see team like Chelsea and Arsenal overtaking them on the table.

They keep blaming their poor performance to injury after missing Kevin De Bruyne for a while now and Rodri out of the season. Injuries should not be the major excuse of a big team like this, they should have always being prepared for it. So they should focus now and do what is right before it’s too late for them.

Lol It's only 11 games and you're acting as if Liverpool has already won the league. They're playing good right now and might potentially go 8 points clear of Manchester City if they beat Southampton tomorrow, but stating they can play better without Salah isn't entirely true. We have witnessed how the team suffered last season while he was out injured. He is best player and has helped them win critical matches this season; if he is out, who handle that position?

Pep would be angry tonight after extending his contract few days back and today he got another defeat that's making it 5 losses in a row. I still can't tell why these guys are in a terrible form since last month if I'm not mistaken. Tottenham Hotspur are not yet done and they need to continue winning games to let other clubs know that they're also part of the title race and they can't be left out. I never thought Tottenham would get up to 4 goals in this encounter because since this season we haven't seen two big clubs playing each other and we have to see a win, they always end in a draw apart from the game Chelsea played against Man City at the beginning of the season. This win will build up enough momentum for the Spurs side and is official that Haaland is not a big game player.

Manchester City's previous four defeats occurred when Manchester City played away, but in the match that had just ended Manchester City lost at home to Tottenham with a very landslide score of 0-4. I wonder, is this the end of Manchester City's dominance and also Pep Guardiola or maybe, this defeat at home is the peak of Manchester City's defeat this season? I don't know. With results like this although Manchester City are still in second place,  but it looks like this season will be Manchester City's worst season. Because yes, it seems like this is the first time Manchester City  in the Pep Guardiola era have received successive defeats like this.

In addition, for the next Premier League match Manchester City will play away against Liverpool and with Manchester City's results in the last five matches, it looks like Manchester City will lose for the next match against Liverpool. If that scenario happens, then of course Liverpool will have a gap that may be very safe to be at the top of the table. But to be honest, for this Manchester City vs Tottenham match I personally did notchoose Manchester City to win, but only chose the option of both teams to score. But yes,  my bet still lost because Manchester City really seems to have lost its dominance this season.

What a match? Is this Manchester City playing against Tottenham?
It's crazy and I didn't even expect the outcome of this match. Although I know that indeed in the last few matches Manchester City lost their momentum so that not many points they managed to achieve even sometimes too inclined to the defeat that continues to occur but in this match with a score of 0-4 what happened exactly?

They have too much possession of the ball and always try to go all out in attack but don't really care about the poor defense that makes Tottenham's counterattacks always manage to convert into goals.
Although Pep tried more to improve the midfield in the second half but when their processes and schemes remained the same this was still very easy to exploit by Tottenham to further maintain the advantage with a big score.
With this result, of course Liverpool will be the club that benefits, especially their opponent this week is Southampton, which of course if 3 points are returned, it is certain that Liverpool are running alone for this half of the season in the race for the trophy.

I don't really think it's because of Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea instead Arsenal’s inconsistency and inability to perform in crucial games is the reason why they are not winning the league.

Even if Salah is injured, Liverpool seem to have the right mentality and cohesion to win the EPL this season without Mo Salah. And as for Manchester City, they have lost 5 games in a row. They are not looking as dominant as they used to be. Liverpool have the advantage to win this season EPL.

If Pep doesn't find a way to fix his midfield issues then his team will continue to suffer. The team without Rodri is in shambles but it's not just Rodri they miss, the whole team is just bad currently. I wonder why Pep keeps playing Gundugan when he doesn't add anything without the ball. He doesn't defend or track a player till the end.
They need ball-winners in that midfield. Players that can win the ball back and make sure the opponent is not comfortable on the ball.
They also have to hope that KDB comes back to his original form because they need a player who can create chances easily for the attack.
If Man City wants to have any chances of winning silverware this season they have to sign players in January to strengthen their team or else they may continue suffering.

Conceding 2 goals in 20 minutes is one of the shameful thing I least expect, they are now 5 games with no win, no draw but 5 losses in a row deserves some explanation and this is not a small problem in my opinion. Look at Haaland, Foden made more effort than him in today's match, even Kevin Bruyne looks frustrated today which I totally understand. To even think Rodri presented the Balon D'or he has been taking around interviews to honor the club, this is what the team gives in return, lmao.

If you check this team very well, they don't look too serious like a team that has a game plan, just playing here and there to push it through and it's not working. Losing matches in Etihad clearly send one message and any team they face next will do more damage than what they have played because look at it, Tottenham that isn't even at the top of the team, that means Liverpool will crush them at any given opportunity if they have any match at the moment.

Haha the same here, I put a few bets and all related to this match instead of winning the match even Manchester City did not score a single goal. We know this is very surprising to all of us, how could they lose while playing at home with a score of 4 goals really like a trap. What exactly happened to Manchester City? They were defeated in a row in the last 3 matches or lost 9 points do they give Liverpool the opportunity to secure the title?

Tomorrow Liverpool will play the 12th match and if they win means Liverpool is getting closer to the title, currently Liverpool lead 5 points and with an additional 3 points they are in a safe position. To be honest, lately the Premier League is rather difficult to predict and we saw many surprises in several important matches.and no team can play consistently except Liverpool.

Tottehenam played their most amazing game recently, today against Manchester City, City losing the match without scoring a single goal was a huge thing. Their position in the league is getting worse with consecutive defeats. Liverpool seems to have the biggest advantage right now.

It doesn't seem normal for Manchester City to lose so many matches in a row, I say how can that be, but they are losing, it won't be easy for them to recover from these losses.

When Manchester city fell out of the league cup, people said they don't need the trophy, that is why Pep Guardiola purposely crashed out to enable him concentrate on EPL and Champions league. I was telling them that City took the league cup seriously but they were out powered. Now people understand that it was not a purposeful act. Manchester city chain is broken and if they don't fix themselves very fast, it will be bad when judgement is even meant on them as per the 115 charges against them.

I think with this blow, Manchester City's chances of winning the title have gone down a lot. Losing 5 official games in a row is something that hasn't happened for years. The losses in the Champions League are not a problem since the format has changed and they were eliminated from the League Cup without reaching the quarter-finals, not a big deal, but these losses in the Premier League will hurt them a lot. Right now Liverpool have a serious advantage. The other teams are very close with City. In fact, if Liverpool have a similar fall, the excitement will come back, it's too early for now, but in terms of general morale, it's certain that the City fans are very low. In 3 days they need to win the Feyenoord game and get a reset, for the team and fans, then the Liverpool game will perhaps decide the fate of the league.

The worst have happened in Etihad Stadium today as Madison marked his birthday today with two goals against the champions in the first half. In ghs second half Tottenham was able to score two goals to end the match 4-0.

This is the first lost that City have had after playing 42 games at home. Tottenham went to the palace of the champions and humiliated them on a clean sheet. This is a wonderful night for Tottenham and a bad night for Pep and his men. I know after the match all Tottenham players will go and celebrate Madison for those wonderful goals.

This is the time to know the main title contenders, Manchester City failed to secure three points at home against Tottenham, they lost 0-4 at the Etihad Stadium which is very embarrassing.
I think it is time to all accept the fact that Rodri is the key player in Manchester City squad, and Haaland is nothing without Rodri and Kevin De Bruyne.

Losing five games in a row is the worst performance Pep Guardiola has ever have in his coaching career, his team continue to perform badly in the Premier League and other competitions, I just hope he can fix and make things happen soon since Kevin De Bruyne is back from injury and have started to play for them.

The EPL table is now very tight, any mistake from any team can bring them down especially from the second to the fifth position.

I bet a little money on this match between Manchester City and Tottenham, I lost this bet, it made me sadder than Manchester City did not score a goal. Tottenham played the best in this match today, Manchester City conceded the last goal because of their mistake.
The ball was passed wrongly and went to the opposing players and from there he hit it directly and gave it to someone else and was able to score a goal from there. Manchester lost many gamblers' money in this match today, I never expected a result of 4-0 in this match. Tottenham won this match by such a margin.

It is very much obvious to us now that there is a problem in Manchester city. This seems to be a very little problem, but now I this obvious that it is becoming a big problem. I had thought that this is the week that Manchester City will return to glory, but it is unfortunate that Tottenham who is not even in their best form is leading Manchester city by 3 goals to nil. Who knows if this will be the end of the reign of Manchester city. But one confusing thing is that Manchester city is still in the second position amidst their recent poor performances. English premier league is confusing and complicated this season. Even Manchester United will win and even go down the more. Lol

Manchester City has definitely lost the match now, we are just waiting for the final whistle, Pep needs to sit his men well again, their defense is in shambles. He needs to find a way to get back on track, I know they're often having bad performance around this time of the year but this is the worst.

Tottenham is a team that can possibly let a two goals down slide if the opposing team are really pressing and determinant for an equaliser but City today is far from that.

Enzo Fernandes showed why he doesn't needs to be sitting on the bench rather coming as a starter to Enzo Maresca today and also taking the MOTM award.

He provided the creativity we were lacking in most games and if nor that chances were missed, we would have gotten more goals and also, I think it's high time Noni Madueke sat on the benched to be honest, that guy is  wasting chances and often too greedy with the ball especially inside the opponent box.

As far as I know, De Bruyne and Rodri are not yet back from their injuries. I know the match is not going to be easy for Manchester City, but I never expected Tottenham to score two goals so early like this. It just seems that even Manchester City are currently weak. If not, what will be causing so many goals recently with any team they play against?

What is really happening? This is surprising to me because, even without Rodri and De Bruyne, I never expected Manchester City’s form to drop so dramatically like this. Manchester City, which is almost everyone’s favorite to win the Premier League and even the Champions League before the season started that are currently get more defeat from even small teams. Even when Liverpool was not in good form last season, it was not as bad as Manchester City’s current performance.

Your stick is a learner compared to mine, it's 3 nil now and City isn't looking as though they can come back in this game. Tottenham is really hell bent in burying city alive today in terms of performance. Many gamblers would lose their stakes today because Tottenham is doing the unexpected and unimagined. If they can hold this tempo of the match. The win is surely theirs.

Chelsea match today was beautiful and the combination of Caicedo and Enzo produced the level of defensive play and creativity I expected from the team. This should be another reminder to the coach that winning games isn't much about strength. Lavia isn't yet creative enough to bench Enzo like he always does. Beyond defensive midfielder role, Enzo is a very creative player that can produce chances and supports to win matches.
