[...] Manchester City continued its record of never losing or drawing in 6 matches and remaining at the top of the standings.
 
Yeah a strong star fom City so far in the PL but they also haven't been properly challenged as well. City have game against Arsenal in October and that's the game where there is possible of a break in City's consistent form. Brighton in the next game after Arsenal will also be a tough fixture and possible drop of points for City. So some tough fixtures are getting lined up and busy schedule with CL games too. It would be interesting to see how City handles their games ahead.

His busy schedule in two leagues will make the energy of Manchester City players drained continuously they are most likely in several matches will play all their reserves in EPL to maintain the performance of the Manchester City core players, but against the top team in the EPL, Pep Guardiola will exert the player in essence , that strategy might be done to fight Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham and Brentford in subsequent forms.
It's quite interesting indeed, they get Wins Streak in EPL, and it might make a new history, if they cannot be defeated at EPL.

In as much as I've always been an advocate of not underrating small teams, I still can't help but agree with you, Manchester city's performance in all their games this season have made them almost unbeatable by any team in this current season in the EPL, though being an Arsenal fan and my happiness is seeing Arsenal win all their games, but when it comes to beating Manchester city, it's almost impossible..
Even though this is the reality, in my opinion, so far the only clubs in the Premier League that still have potential and can provide a tight game can be said to be Arsenal and Liverpool. As far as I know, these two clubs are quite stable and at certain times Manchester City is not always in favorable conditions. So, if you look at Arsenal's growth in a more positive direction, it doesn't rule out the possibility that the meeting between Manchester City and Arsenal will be a match worth paying attention to for all Gunner fans.
Last season, Manchester City and Arsenal were pretty much the only teams that could win. Liverpool added some spice, but they didnt show up often enough. Its interesting how you've brought up Arsenal's promise this season, especially when you think about the problems Manchester City could have. Im not sure that Nottingham Forest is going to be a big problem for City this weekend. But what makes me both happy and worried is how City has changed. They dont depend on KDB as much as they used to, which shows how flexible they are. Arsenal has to do better. Also, I have to laugh a little bit. Some deals, like Havertz, are questionable, but I wouldnt be too harsh.

Manchester city could score more than it if rodri was not getting a red card. It's bad to see him made unnecessary foul. My perspective on the matter is that he needs to tone down his aggressiveness in the upcoming game. It's pure his mistake to get a red card.

Even though city was playing only with 10 players but the quality said the truth here. Manchester city is still having a very solid defensive line at this moment. It's very hard for forest to use counter attack against manchester city.

Some backs like walker was always securing the sideline. The quality was never a lie. There is a reason why manchester city being called as best club in the world right now.

City can still keep the cleansheet even with 10 players against 11 players of nottingham forest.
Manchester City basically had great difficulty maintaining their defense because they played with 10 people. Pep Guardiola is aware of that and doesn't take too many risks by continuing to play lots of attacking players. Pep replaced Doku and Alvarez by playing Kalvin Phillips and Nathan Ake, this was done because Pep Guardiola knew his team would not play better with 10 players when Nottingham managed to find good form.

In the end Manchester City still managed to seal the win despite a tiring second half. City have collected 18 points from 6 consecutive matches and they are still too difficult to stop so far. Rodri will certainly be absent against Wolves, but the match against Arsenal will make things difficult for Manchester City.

Maybe there's no shortage of that, but there are other teams who's line-ups may not be quite perfect, but they're just very strong, also as a team. I'm referring to Manchester City. They may have some problems in their squad, but they don't stop them from winning. Besides, if you look at the situation now, Tottenham are joining this race, who have had a great start to the season and also have a good squad.
For Manchester City, I don't see any gaps in their players. Their starters and reserves are at the same level and even if the starters can't play due to some problems like KDB's at the moment the reserves can still be a good option because their quality is not too different considering Manchester City players are really very good in their individual skills.
On the other hand Pep is also quite smart in terms of rotation and organising schemes that want to be done in every match they run so that makes Manchester City always one level above their opponents.


Even if there is a player in Manchester City's line-up who is not playing his position in the best way he will not drag his team to the bottom, moreover, playing with professionals (I mean the rest of the team) he will play like he has never played before, I have not seen moments when Manchester City's line-up was weak....

The first half has finished and Manchester City is two goals ahead of Nottingham Forest, meaning that in this match it is very clear who will win even though Nottingham Forest still has time to equalize. But I'm not sure about Nottingham Forest's abilities and I even think there will be another goal for Manchester City in the second half. Because so far Manchester City is still quite good and consistent in winning matches in the Premier League.
The start of the second half was a bit of a disaster because 1 minute into the second half Rodri got a red card and of course this slightly reduced the intensity for sure for Manchester City.
But on the other hand with a 2-goal advantage at the moment I am not too doubtful about them and surely 3 points they will still get in this match even if they play with 10 players, it's just that surely in this case Pep will try to change some schemes and will slightly hold back the intensity of the attack unlike in the first half because still losing Rodri this will be a little disturbing if they try to go all out in the attack carried out.
Manchester City managed to secure victory even though they had to play with 10 players at the start of the second half. Manchester City attack was not like the first half after Rodri left the field, but Manchester City was still too strong for Nottingham Forest. Pep Guardiola did not make many substitutions in the second half, Pep only made three substitutions throughout the second half.
This victory makes Manchester City the only team that has managed to achieve perfect points in the 6 games they have played, the first position is still theirs because the points they have collected have not been able to be caught up by their rivals.

Manchester City is off to another fast start. Foden and Haaland put them ahead early on. There's nothing Nottingham Forest can do now. They will defend whenever possible and try not to concede more goals. But as long as Manchester City play like this, more goals are likely. Nottingham Forest started with a fairly defensive line-up but they didn't show any resistance as they conceded early goals.
Now things may be different as Rodri was shown a red card just the start of the second half. I still don't think Nottingham Forest to try to score but Manchester City may be more defensive now. If you bet on over 4-5 goals it might be difficult to reach.

Manchester City were very aggressive from the start and Forest resisted heavily. Manchester City scored two goals before halftime and did not score any more goals. Meanwhile, after half time, Rodri got a red card and left the field. His foul was horrible to say the least. Forest could not use the opportunity of Rodri going out of the field, but there were many attacks in this opportunity, but no goal was seen. The game after half time was very competitive as Manchester City were a player down so this was Forest's biggest chance of the game.

First goal for Foden from Walker cut back was a really good team worked goal. There will be more players in Manchester City that will score in the second half. Doku, Alvarez are yet to score, and if they are not replaced in the second half they will score or create another chance for goal. If Nottingham forest manages to score one, maybe they will be able to score another to draw this game. It is very far from happening, but it can happen now especially with Rodri now sent off from the game with a red card due to violent conduct.
Manchester City 2 - 0 Nottingham Forest. Not bad since Manchester City was able to maintain the two goals advantage although playing a whole half with only 10 players. Both Foden and Haaland were able to score early goals. Haaland scored his 8th goal in 6 games, not bad Wink
On the other two games, Crystal Palace 0 - 0 Fulham and Luton Town 1 - 1 Wolves. Normal results since teams in both matches were close to each others.

Manchester City won today's match against Nottingham Forest by two goals, but Manchester City did not do much better in the second half than in the first half.  
Manchester City scored two goals early in the first half, but then Manchester City was unable to create any more stories against Nottingham Forest. Manchester City reduced to 10 men is the main reason not to perform well in the second half?  

When Manchester City scored two goals in the first half, it was thought that maybe Manchester City could score one to two more goals in the second half, but that was not the case. The first two goals sealed the win for Manchester City. By winning this match, Manchester City has risen above all other teams in terms of points.  

With the maximum number of points (18), Manchester City is currently on top of all other teams. I don't think any other team will be able to close the points gap that Manchester City has created early on with all the other teams.

The gap is too big. That match is finished for nottingham forest. The club must also admit that if manchester city is a very strong club in EPL. That's why it was always dominating the EPL since the previous seasons.
Nottingham should not even play the game if they could do that caused by the result was clear if manchester city is winning the game. It's hard to imagine city would be loosing against a weak club like nottingham forest.
The odds is very disappointed caused by it's very small for city due to the its superiority against nottingham forest.

Manchester United has to get three points from this match. It is actually going to be a problem if they do not. They are already towards the bottom of the table.  If they lose this match, they will surely not be doing them any favour. Even if they get one point from this match, it is not going to be enough. They will have to get three points otherwise it is definitely going to hurt them.

I can see the fourth team on the table has 13 points, and Manchester United has six points. Currently Manchester United is on the 13th position of the table. If Manchester United actually end up losing the match, there is a very good chance that they will drop positions on the table. So no other option for them other than to win this match.

Flashback, referring to Manchester United's match against Bayern. In the first 20 minutes of the first half, United made it difficult for Bayern Munich. but after that, United's game was again inconsistent. Well, there are several points that I took from that match, and this will influence United's future matches.
Referring to the Burnley vs Manchester Utd match, I am quite sure that Ten Hag has actually studied the weaknesses of his team's squad apart from several injured players. IMO, in this match United will get full points and ensure they will be better. Moreover, Ten Hag really needs a win to increase his ranking in the Premier League standings. plus, raising the squad mentality of his team.

Well, there are several players who look like they can play even though their status is still in doubt, such as Varene, Amrabat and Mason Mount. If so, some of these players will start from the bench. Plus, it looks like Marcus Rashford is no longer playing selfishly. we can refer to, when Rashford provided an assist for Hojlund in the match against Bayern, this was the game that United should have shown. In the match against Burnley, I am quite confident that United will win the match. even though in fact, despite the poor performance of the home team. Well, to be sure, let's just wait until this match is held.

City are possession playing team and with that opponents doesn't has much chances. A team planning to win against City should be able to sharpen their attack enough to find goals in just few attempts because that is how it is when a club faces a side like City. Forest are not sharp enough and no wonder that they haven't found a goal against City till now. I think even with red card they wouldn't be able to find a goal.
Manchester City has a complete package of all players and all lines, especially in defense, so it is very difficult to penetrate their defense unless they make a mistake.
Actually I thought Manchester City against Nottingham Forest would be their goal party, but 2 goals with 10 players because Rodri got a red card and went off the field. And two goals is a good result and both goals came from Voden and Halaand, and Manchester City continued its record of never losing or drawing in 6 matches and remaining at the top of the standings.

The match was over and Nottingham was still unable to score a goal even though they created more goal opportunities in the second half. Nottingham played better in the second half because Manchester City tended to defend due to a lack of 1 player. Of course, Nottingham almost scored a goal, but Ederson's neat performance prevented it.

I don't know why there was so much drama in this match that the Manchester City players shouldn't have. The match became increasingly tense throughout the second half, but Manchester City again proved that they had a good defense rather than the sharpness of their striker.

If you only look at Bayern's on target then obviously it would be considered a save from Onana with 9 chances on target that Bayern had but in reality it was not like that.
The first goal was a mistake, the second goal he also didn't react even though it was a fairly low shot the 4th goal he failed to get out of his zone even though the ball was approaching because of Onana's indecision. And don't get me wrong, in the match against Bayern I didn't blame Onana but the fact that he was under-performing was clear in this match and even he admitted that.

As for De Gea's decision being right or not as I said before, that is now unimportant because whether it is a good or bad decision everything will not be regrettable because it has happened now.
Regarding Manchester United choice not to renew David De Gea's contract and the necessity for a more thorough evaluation of their team performance, you make a good point. It is true that Onana cannot be held totally responsible for goals conceded when up against a powerful foe with a superior assault. The players, coaching staff, and officials should all share accountability for the team performance. It may be necessary to bolster Manchester United's defence, and it's important to avoid focusing on a single player when discussing the team deficiencies. Football is a team sport, so overcoming flaws as a team should be the top concern.
That is the point because it is necessary to realize that the season continues to run and there are still many matches for them to play so that when blaming each other for previous defeats forever Manchester Untied will not be able to develop and what they have to do is focus on how to make the game they will live according to expectations and build greater chemistry and cooperation between players so that they can perform better than before.

Today's match we will see how Manchester United face Burnley and that is what must be prepared now because in this match they should not make repeated mistakes by continuing to lose and lose the matches they do.

The competition between them has happened since last season even Manchester City almost failed to get a title, luck is still on Manchester City side when Arsenal miss important points at the end of the season and Manchester City use it well. For this season it doesn't seem much different, as you said Liverpool and Arsenal are still the main competitors for Manchester City.
Tottenham is another team that look solid this season and can give any top team a run of their money, Arsenal and Liverpool had already proven that they are forces to reckon with this season therefore Man City has some big challenge from those three clubs mentioned above and their is tendency that some the less fancied clubs can create an up for Man City this season too, of course four matches had so far been played with 34 matches to go how is it possible for Man City to win all the remaining matches? Absolutely not possible and my view and opinion on the present squad of Man City isn't as formidable as like season squad club like Brighton and Brentford are always difficult and hard for Man City to be defeated.

Manchester City, Arsenal, Tottenham, and Liverpool these four teams are actually all capable of winning the English Premier League in my opinion. Of course, Manchester City and Arsenal are going to have the best chance. But I think all four of them are going to compete against each other very closely. I have to say Manchester City is the team that should be winning the English Premier League title. Arsenal also might be able to win. But the problem is they will have to be consistent throughout the whole season. Otherwise, if they are just good at the start and middle part of the season and cannot play well towards the end, they won't be able to win the English Premier League title.

As expected Manchester City will win the match quite easily and currently Manchester City still has the advantage with 2 goals and the second half is almost up.
There is no longer any hope for Nottingham to catch up or even beat Manchester City.
Even though Manchester City received a red card and had to play with 10 players Manchester City could still optimize their strength making it impossible for Nottingham to have a chance to equalize.
Now time is up and it continues with extra time and let see a win for Manchester City.

Manchester City vs Nottingham Forest This match will be played at Manchester City's home ground so they will have plenty of attacking power today. And today's match will be Manchester City, Forest will win comfortably, no doubt, Manchester City will play great in today's match. So far Manchester City has won all the matches played in the EPL. Manchester City is the champion team of last season and in this new season they are performing as well as before which is why they are at the top of the points table. However, Manchester City is the strongest team this season, Manchester City course pep Guardiola has selected good players and they have played well in every match for that. Man City will easily win the match today, according to today's betting tips, City has the best chance to win the match.


Since this match will be held at Manchester City's ground, the team will get a lot of advantage and the performance of Manchester City team is much ahead of the opposition team, so it can be understood that Manchester City is likely to win this match by a big margin.

Nottingham forest was very far compared with manchester city. I remind you that city has destroyed westham even when the game was playing at westham's home. This will be a disaster for forest to face city at etihad stadium. City has been leaving two goals against nottingham even before the end of first half. I expect city to make at least 3 goals against nottingham forest. The domination by manchester city is really dominant in this match. Im still watching the game now and everything is going very hard for nottingham forest.
Ez three points for manchester city.

Pep Guardiola was forced to change his game plan in the second half because they had to play with 10 players. Rodri received a red card due to a commotion on the sidelines with Morgan Gibbs-White and with that Doku and Alvarez had to be withdrawn and replaced by Kalvin Phillips and Nathan Ake.

Since Manchester City played with 10 players, they were really under pressure. Nottingham played better from then on and they also managed to create some dangerous chances. So far Manchester City still leads with a score of 2-0, but it is clear that they could concede if their defense fails to maintain high concentration.
