Seriously City? For real?



I can't believe it, the team I had less fear of doing something really stupid as I always say they are not Arsenal to always play with your mind and luck is screwing me in the last game out of 8 picks  Grin Atletico managed to pull it out of the fire in 15 minutes but were lead only 1-0, not let's see how City is going to score 3 in 60 minutes and not screw up and get one in the net again.
Still funny that Hotspur is still 1.95 despite leading 2-0, this will be entertaining enough, especially since all other games are finished.

We were waiting to see Manchester City's comeback today. We thought that we would see a better performance from Manchester City after the international break. Guardiola will probably be able to solve Manchester City's internal problems. But the scenario is completely different. Manchester City is not able to perform well in today's match either. City will probably lose today too.

Manchester City conceded two goals in the first 20 minutes. Now Manchester City is 2-0 behind. Several strong attacks were made by Manchester City players. However, Manchester City's defenders failed to resist the counterattacks made by Tottenham players. James Maddison scored both goals for Tottenham. We will probably see many goals in today's match. Manchester City will definitely not want to lose in the home match.

It is no longer possible for Nottingham Forest to turn things around or catch up on the score, because currently the match has entered the minutes of extra time, while Arsenal is already leading with a score of 3-0. In the 86th minute Arsenal again increased its advantage

And in this match, it seems that Arsenal's defense is very solid, they do not give any space at all for Nottingham Forest to be able to make a move towards the goal. A solid defense and a fairly sharp attack line are the usual wild combinations shown by Arsenal in this match. They are not only able to dominate the course of the match, but they are also intent on continuing to attack Nottingham Forest's goal. and I hope this kind of performance can be consistent until the next match, so that Arsenal can get more wins.

I thought Nottingham Forest would give Arsenal a real fight, but they were completely out of it tonight. It looks like their previous loss to Newcastle could have been a bad start for Nottingham Forest because now it has become two consecutive defeats. If they can't win their next match against Ipswich, I think their bad episodes will go on because they will play against Man City, Man United, and Aston Villa after that.

It was an easy win for Arsenal. They looked so dominant throughout the game and it was very obvious that they were playing to win.

How could I forget that Enzo Maresca was the man who handled Leicester last season, so I thought that Chelsea would have a tough match and Leicester could steal point from them. But after remembering that fact, I'm pretty sure that Chelsea will be able to win this match because Enzo Maresca has insight into their opponent's weaknesses, and besides that Leicester are not in good shape, especially in the last few weeks, where they have not won a game. It looks like Chelsea can win by at least 2 goals.
Enzo Maresca is the man that can comprehend Leicester City, he has no doubt when he faced Steve Cooper. The proclaimed threat towards the Blues this afternoon at the King Power Stadium comes with huge surprise? The Foxes are supposed to seal draw points but what happen? Defeats was the prescribed end result for the hosts because the visitors never create room for relenting efforts, always moving ahead for streak winnings. Chelsea players recording their names on the scoresheet, having the likes of Nicolas Jackson to open the scoring for the Blues, followed by Enzo Fernandez making it two for the Blues, we would have called it a sealed win not until Leicester City refused to accept clean sheet on their ground, they made it 2-1 and that was simply the game.

In this match, we considered Chelsea as the favorite. And in the end, Chelsea was able to win by a narrow margin of 2-1. Chelsea players performed excellently throughout the match. However, after 90 minutes, Leicester City was able to score a goal from a penalty in extra time. Because of this, the match ended 2-1.

In the last two seasons, we have seen very poor performance of Chelsea. In the 2022-23 season, Chelsea was in 12th position in the points table. And in the 2023-24 season, Chelsea was in 6th position. And now Chelsea is in 3rd position in the table this season.

Chelsea's overall performance is stable. The attacking players have performed quite well. At the same time, Chelsea's defenders are also able to perform well this season.

Mikel Arteta made a couple of interesting substitutions in the last 15 minutes of the game. I thought we could get a goal from Sterling but at least one of those substitutions Nwaneri who replaced Martin Odegaard scored the third goal for Arsenal making the score sheet 3-0.

Guys, does this victory convince you that Arsenal are back and ready to be title contenders this season?

Today's game for arsenal was a five star performance IMO, because I'm not sure if they've played something similar to this since their second game against Aston Villa. I watched the game, and It was just too obvious that the absence of Odegaard was a big blow to them. Odegaard literally covered the entire pitch today, and was just using his technical ability to pass through the forest defense. Forest didn't play bad, but we just didn't see much from their midfield.

And it's surprising to see Arteta making use of his substitute, and also allowing some players like jesus and trosaard play full 90mins, when on a normal day, he usually sub them out. I guess the international break really help the team. And as for Nwaneri, he seems to have some reflection of Odegaard's ability in him. Scoring a goal as a sub and dribbling pass a defender at that age will definitely put him on the news headline tonight.

I have the feeling that arsenal are gradually coming back, but we need to observe their remaining games for this year before making further conclusions.

Yes, indeed Arteta made good use of his players but I must say I was a bit expectant that he'd bring in Raheem sterling earlier in the game. Arsenal were really in control of the game to the point that Nottingham Forest couldn't record any shot at goal, that was how dominant they were and I will not say they've fully come back but I think it's a fine way to bounce back from their dismal performances of late.

The Arsenal players really came prepared after the international break and i think the top four teams might win their respective matches this week because Chelsea has already won their game against Leicester and Arsenal is currently leading Nottingham Forest by 2:0 which i don't think they can be able to equalize due to the pressure of Arsenal, so it's just remaining Manchester City and Liverpool which i believe they would win their matches as well. Bukayo Saka has been a good right winger for Arsenal as he scored the opening goal for Arsenal and paved the way for Partey to score the second goal. I am not expecting any drama from Arsenal in this game because the energy is superb, so this is a clear 3 points bagged.
Honestly Arsenal came from the international break with full prepare, there match against Nottingham forest is very interesting, all thoughts that come with the way arsenal was performed before they want to international break they didn’t expect anything good from the in today; but in deed with much efforts they’ve surprised a lot of people by given Nottingham forest too much pressure.

Arsenal is now sharing the same points with Chelsea after securing 3 goals against Nottingham forest, and this just started Arsenal never done anything yet till next match, because this international break that Arsenal came from; there performance has really improved they’ve more strong then before they’ve ready to Fiona’s of their opponents.

I don’t think Arsenal fans realize how lucky they are to have Bukayo Saka in their team. My God, did you see the beautiful goal Saka scored? I almost dropped my phone lol. Bukayo Saka is arguably the best winger in the Premier League. Arsenal just scored another goal to increase the lead to 2-0 courtesy of Thomas Partey. I don’t see Nottingham Forest coming back into this game. It’s a sure win for the Gunners.
Yes it was a beautiful shot from Bukayo Saka and that's what I miss from Bukayo Saka who always shoots hard from long range. Arsenal is back to winning ways and I hope Arsenal can continue to play well to maintain their victory, by the way Ethan Nwanerin scored 1 goal in this match and he is a young player who is still 17 years old and 247 and is now Arsenal's second youngest goal scorer in the Premier League and he will be a potential player if Arteta can develop him well and he is very agile.

Arsenal is way too centered on Saka, if they missed him, then they have no clue what to do. I really appreciate him to be a winger who often carried the club, but this is bad for the club in long-term.

I'd rather call them as Saka FC. They're so back when they have Saka in the line up, but they always played badly when they missed him. Having Saka made them back to their last season's performance.

They shall think how to balance between their left to the right side.

Leicester City is a weak club and Chelsea deserves to win them, because Chelsea is stronger than them. If you observed the match, you will see that Leicester City was unable to play any shot on target, apart from the penalty that Ayew scored. Two of their only shot went to the sides of the goal post. Chelsea should continue their good ball work and be consistent, the future is bright.
A well deserved win for the London side, they dominated Leicester city a lot so they deserved to take home all 3 points, today Chelsea's talisman, Cole Palmer didn't impress very well as he seemed to be hidden during the first half and some moment along the second half but his side managed to win which was the most important thing for the team with goals coming from Nicholas Jackson in the first half and Enzo Fernandez the captain of  Chelsea in the second half, though Leicester city managed to pull one back with a well taken penalty from the Ghanaian international, Jordan Ayew which wasn't enough to level the scores for the home side.
This is normal, I don't expect super star player to always play at same energy all the time , they're also individuals and would have their down time. However, why I did love this current Chelsea squad is that they're not dependent on any individual player to win their games, in as much as cole palmer is their key player at the moment, they play more like a team work,  we've seen how this has affected the performance of Manchester City in some case when their key players are on injury or not in form they usde to struggle to win their games because of their reliance on some players.

This win was very much needed for Arsenal. In the last four matches we have seen weak and inconsistent performances from Arsenal. Arsenal lost against weak teams like Bournemouth and Newcastle. So it was not certain that Arsenal would win against Nottingham Forest.

However, there is no doubt that Arsenal played very well today. And watching the match, I think Arsenal are back on track again. In the home match, the Arsenal players did not give Nottingham Forest players any chance. Every attack made by Arsenal players in this match was very strong. Arsenal players had a total of 19 shots, 7 of which were on target.

I am looking forward to seeing how Arsenal performs against Sporting in the next match of the Champions League. Sporting team won against Manchester City by a big margin a few days ago. So getting points in this match is a big challenge for Arsenal at the moment.

This victory is not enough to convince us that Arsenal is back on the title race, but its important for them as a team because they can't afford losing any soft match if they want to contest for the Premier League title this season because Liverpool is doing well and Arne Slot will not make any mistake soon unless if injury affect the team just it did for Arsenal and Manchester City.
The team Arteta displayed did well, he has started learning to be given all the players playing time and chances to showcase their talent so that they will not struggle to adapt when the main players get injured. Awesome substitution from Arteta, and brilliant performance from all the players.

It's 2:0 at the Emirates in favour of Arsenal. Mikel Arteta's men have been the dominant team in the entire game as they had few goals ruled off for offsides in the first half while Bukayo Saka managed to get a goal but in the second half, Arsenal have double their lead through Thomas Partey who was set up by Bukayo Saka. Considering the performances of both teams, I don't think Nottingham Forest stands a chance of getting a point in this game. Or do you think there might be a late drama?

It is no longer possible for Nottingham Forest to turn things around or catch up on the score, because currently the match has entered the minutes of extra time, while Arsenal is already leading with a score of 3-0. In the 86th minute Arsenal again increased its advantage

Nwaneri is a supersub as he came in with Sterling on the 81st minutes of the game and scored five minutes later with an assist from Sterling. It was a good substitutes made by Arteta go seal up Arsenal victory on the 86th minutes of the game. A wonderful performance from Arsenal in this game because the outplay their visitors on won them on a clean sheet. I am waiting to see what will be the outcome of City match against Tottenham.

Chelsea vs Leicester City, Bournemouth vs Brighton, Arsenal vs Nottingham Forest, the expected teams Chelsea, Brighton and Arsenal had easy wins.
Brentford and Everton 0-0 draw is also not a surprising one as Brentford were traveling to Everton's home for the game.
Aston Villa vs Crystal Palace was the first unexpected result for today. Aston Villa playing at home against a relatively weaker team, was on control most of the time but were 2-1 down at first half and a 77th minute goal made them draw the match.
Wolves vs Fulham was another unexpected result, playing in Fulham, the host team was first to score but they conceived 4 goals, three of them in second half.

I don't think Leicester will be a treat for Chelsea Because they have not stable since their return to the premier league but I think the squad Chelsea will play will be the players that will be pushing for goals so as to avoid an unwanted damage to their to 4 hopes if Leicester city play well I think it will just be a draw not Chelsea loosing the match even though Leicester are at home

Things might turn around for good in favor of the poor Leicester team and this game can be their first big win since coming back to the EPL. Chelsea has always been using the same guys up front and we know the outcome specially when things are not working fine you'd see a certain player who likes or wants to be on the spotlight all the time start playing out of instruction. I hardly place my bet on early kick off because it always end in a draw and we shouldn't be surprised to see Chelsea beginning the EPL game week with a poor start and Enzo Maresca will be against his former boys today, the best of Leicester will be seen today I just have that feeling.
The match has started and has been going on for 15 minutes, Chelsea seems to be dominating the match. Indeed, in football anything can happen, but if you look at Chelsea's performance under Enzo, I think Chelsea will go home with three points. Moreover, Enzo Maresca's performance at Chelsea can also be said to be quite satisfying, Chelsea with the strategy implemented by Maresca made them productive in scoring goals.

In addition, Enzo Maresca once coached Leicester last season, he even brought Leicester to win the Championship and promotion to the Premier League this season. So this will make it easier for him to beat Leicester at King Power Stadium because he already understands the game and the players that Chelsea players must be wary of. So I am sure that in this match Chelsea will bring three points from King Power Stadium.

Enzo Maresca knows everything about these guys and it was an advantage for Chelsea I think that was why they won the game and the Leicester players don't seem to be active in any game they play, no energy no fighting spirit. I don't think Leicester will escape being relegated and if you check properly is only Ipswich that's doing well, talking about the teams that was promoted and I have that feeling that Ipswich will remain while Leicester will be relegated.

The first half of the match has ended. Chelsea dominated the match in the first half of the match, and they were able to get a goal in the first half of the match. I knew the match wouldn’t be so difficult for Chelsea, but I am not just satisfied with one goal scored by Chelsea yet. Let’s see how the second half of the match will be, I am expecting more goals from Chelsea in the second half of the match.
And indeed, it was actually an impressive performance watching out Chelsea score a second goal in the second half of the game, which was scored by Fernandez at 72 minutes into the game, and the match ended 1:2 in favour Chelsea who is currently 3rd place on the Premier League table with 22 points, same as Brighton who is currently playing live against Bournemouth, which means if Brighton fails to win, Chelsea remains 4th place, while if Brighton is lucky enough to win Bournemouth, then they occupy the 3rd place on the table with 25 points (22+3). So let's what how the game goes as Brighton is already taking the lead with 2 goals against Bournemouth.

It wasn't a satisfying victory actually, but it's still very meaningful because, with this victory, the 3rd place belongs to Chelsea for at least the next week. This match can be a lesson for Chelsea, where they really have to improve their effectiveness because if their opponent is a strong team and has good collectivity, then Chelsea could lose points. Too many good opportunities have been wasted in this match, and If only they had clinical finishing Chelsea should have had an easy win because what I see their opponents don't have very good defensive coordination.
You are right, Chelsea missed many chances they got. They should have scored more than 2 goals if they had done a good finishing.
Leicester got 1 goal at the end of the match which was entertaining, but it will be a job to be done for Chelsea too. At least in this match, they got 3 points, and it will be enough to secure their position this week. This season they are playing in the Europa Conference League, and they have to prepare for it in the next match. Hopefully next season Chelsea can get 1 ticket to the Champions League.

Yeah. It was surprising to see Chelsea losing those opportunities that could turn into goals, but they failed to do that. I believe they won’t repeat this mistake again, but still nothing spoils since they were able to win the match with 2 goals while Leicester scored 1. I think that is quite impressive to me since they were able to secure the points, although I understand that Chelsea should not continue playing like this because if Leicester were strong enough they would have won the match. But Chelsea were the stronger team here.
