I can't agree any less as all which you have said here are just true fact and
can as well be seen as the obvious. Information is key as the media will always want information because be it good or bad they are going to make money out of it and that's what matters the most to the media at the end of the day, they always want to stay relevant in their space and one means to stay relevant for the media is getting more information regardless of what it is.

The media will stop at nothing to get every possible information to maintain and gain even more traffic. ETH should know better and try every possible means to avoid the release of too much information than necessary to the media, cautioning player to follow suit aswell will be a good idea. Dress room talks especially one's with some level of negativity should stay within the team and in the dress room.

The owners of the team sometimes seem to interfere much more than needed in the affairs of the club, this can be seen in some cases where they may want to make choices of players without much concerns as to if the coach approves of it, I think it's of utmost importance that the coach be given some level of independence especially when it has to do with choice of players because he will be the one to work with them most of the times.

Seeing Chelsea's performance, they have not yet found their best form. And the consistency is not visible at all. This will definitely make everyone hesitate to bet on Chelsea. And yes there will definitely be many who don't want to bet on Chelsea. I personally would even prefer to skip betting on this match. Because we don't know whether Chelsea will rise in this match or whether they will get worse. I really can't predict Chelsea's performance this season.

And if I change my mind. Then maybe I would also prefer to bet on Aston Villa. Because historically these two teams have met, we can see that Aston Villa beat Chelsea last season. Even then the match was held at Stamford Bridge.

In this option Chelsea is superior and only has low Odds because they have a home match but if you study it carefully a home match is not a guarantee that Chelsea will be able to give their best results later.
I think few people will dare to bet Chelsea as the winner in the match against Aston Villa and the best option is to take a draw or speculate that Aston Villa will win the match later.

I also think the same as you who would rather speculate on Aston Villa winning than betting on Chelsea just because of the Odds advantage and the home game.
Look at Chelsea they are experiencing a worse slump than before and it looks like Pochettino will be a little confused if his team lose to Aston Villa in their home match and so far Chelsea have only managed to get 1 win.

Manchester united is a big club and the media would alwsys come after them to get informations to publish news on their sites but the best thing to do just like other clubs is to avoid giving out too much internal informations to those media and pundits and that's what Eric Ten Hag should work on, he should try not to give out dressing room information especially negative ones to the media and also avoid players from doing so too.

 The main problem with Manchester United is not really the manager or players, because they still got alot of talented players  though there are still few dead woods that needs to be taken out, but the owners are the real problem that's taking the club backwards and the club needs to be sold if they want to go back to glory day, the glaziers are so incompetent and are not doing enough to take the club forward.

True but the media and pundits are dragging and fighting Man United this season. There are still some certain players Man United will want to see leave they still do not fit in to the way the club wants to play.
ETH will get the club in a good position Sir Ferguson struggled bit later came on to be the greatest manager in the Premier League. The support from Man United fans is unspeakable but they do not have same from.the owners that of the club who have drawn them backwards seasons to another session. They can do better if they decide to sell Man United.

The difference in odds is quite significant and indeed, as the host, Chelsea is naturally the favorite. But just seeing the results that Chelsea got in the previous few matches made everyone sick and it was impossible for anyone to bet on their victory. Even last week against Bournemouth they only drew and I couldn't stop laughing at that result.

Well, however, the bet on Aston Villa winning is the most reasonable and I think Unai Emery's troops will win again by silencing Chelsea at Stamford Bridge after the last time they did it last April.

The difference between the two teams is that Aston Villa has experienced quite good development since last season when they changed coaches and Unai Emery at Aston Villa did not purchase players who spent large amounts of money and the money that has been spent can be said to be quite reasonable, while Chelsea still needs time so we can see their good development, the change of coach since last season, and this season with a new coach and the funds that have been spent by Chelsea remain unchanged and when they face Aston Villa later it is quite difficult to predict, Chelsea can win but lose and draw too it might still be the result they get.
It's better to ignore betting on every Chelsea match, because if you choose other bets like BTTS it's still not convincing.

I thought after gets draw result from Liverpool in the first week Chelsea performance will be better than last season but apparently i was wrong about that although Pochettino has been attempts to improve Chelsea performance with bought some players but the results is still far from expectations and the match against Bournemouth should be easy match if Chelsea can able to performing well but unfortunately Chelsea still unable to do that and against Aston Villa this should be hard match for Chelsea because if we see from recent conditions obviously Aston Villa is much better than them and so far they got 3 wins and only lose from Liverpool and Newcastle besides that Aston Villa under Unay Emery seems know how to beat Chelsea because based on head to head statistics we can see Aston Villa has successfully to beat Chelsea two times in a row

If you check you'll know what Sir Alex Ferguson wasn't all successful when he came into Manchester United, it took him a while to build a very strong team and create some standards that made him the most successful coach in the team,  he was very good with relating with his players even to the point of having discussion with them about things outside the field but then there where some certain things he would tolerate from his players no matter who you're you'll face punishment for it, all that helped his team achieved success and that's the type coach United need, a good, friendly but strict coach that wouldn't tolerate his players misbehaving.
 
 However if you notice that's the same part Erik Ten Hag is taking,  he's a good coach and has proven himself,  even had a better debut season than Sir Ferguson, but all he needs from the United fans is time and good support to help him pass through this phase of crisis the club entirely is currently facing,  the fans should be patient cause the task is not an easy one, and even the best coach sometimes wouldn't know how to handle situations like this, but a good support from fans could help them scale through and become successful.

Blaming a coach will not solve the problem or get better results, because what Manchester United needs to do now is continue to play better and forget about the bad results at the start of this season. Today Manchester United must be able to play quite well in the UCL group stage even though the opponent is a very tough team, but at least Manchester United must be able to match the match with Bayern Munich if they cannot get three points.

Indeed sir Alex achieved a lot with the team when he was the head coach and the legacy is one which in a long time both fans and the management of the team shall forever remember as these were times when Manchester united do not only play good games but they also lift trophies almost every season and that kept the confidence high for the players, coach and fans at large.

This off course are the kind of days the fans want back because the team earns the support of the fans by winning games and giving the fans that confidence that they are deserving of every support given them and off course this has exacted pressure on the team, which includes both players and the coach, which we know no coach wants such for his team.

The crisis faced by the team most recently especially as it has to do with scandal from players I think have a great effect on the team as the players concerned are not players the team could really do without,  I think ETH is trying his possible best to get the team back on track but then it seems his best is not good enough as the fans wants more of a result oriented game outcome.

I don't think it's just this season that they spent a lot of money on buying players. Last season we also saw the same thing with the arrival of several players but it did not result in an increase in their performance.
Something is wrong with Chelsea and they haven't found the formula to solve it. Pochettino has a hard job to do, otherwise, he will have to give up and accept it is one of the worst in the history of his career coaching the team.

Disagree with your statement, Jadon Sancho is not individual player and he has good attitude with team and management staff never talking bad about Erik ten Hag or Manchester United internal problem. Never see any controversial announcement from Jadon Sancho and he most respect what happen right now although withdrew from main squad of Manchester United. Actually internal problem in Manchester United is not Jadon Sancho but also there are have Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandez who typical player with individual and not working as one team.

If won't Manchester United keep in the underperformance Erik ten Hag have give chance for Jadon Sancho return to main squad and contribution in domestic league and Champion League.

of course everyone will think that winning there is something wrong with this Chelsea team while spending large amounts of money but not getting satisfactory results from the players they have bought this season and I am sure most supporters or anyone will judge if this is a mistake and I was wondering if this was a backdoor game of wasting a lot of money but the players who were bought did not have the talent to match the price.
TBH, I dont want to be distrustful of Chelsea, but in reality it seems like its beyond reason to spend large amounts of money, but in terms of performance, its very bad compared to last season and actually I wanted to say this for some time ago and I started saying it today when It like I am fed up with Chelsea regrettable performance.

Since no player is bigger than Man United the coach has all the power to get Jadon Sancho dropped out from the squad. This are same players that kept mouth shut when they asked Ronaldo to be dropped for saying things about the manager and Man United management.
Since Sancho did that publicly also he should apologize publicity if he wants to mend issues with the manager. The manager should be backed.
Bruno is not a selfish player but Rashford disappoints me he should create chances for his number nine player and not always shoot he is always easy to predict. He should start passing ans stop shooting it makes his game beautiful.

If Chelsea coach can do something fast to work on his players not to play selfish game in any competition than to work together as a team to achieve their goal. I think Chelsea will battle with Aston villa very well in this match but it will be difficult for them to defeat Aston villa to achieve the victory. Based on what Chelsea players are displaying in this season, showed that it will take them like two season before they will start performing well like other teams toping the premier league table. I think, Chelsea and Manchester united manages have a good role to play before it will be too late for them, because if they continue with this poor performance till the end of the tournament, I think they will be replace by another coach because their president will not like to hear another opportunity.

For a long time, when Ten Hag coached Ajax, he often had problems with players who were not disciplined, according to him, but when it had a big impact on the team's performance, I think he also had to lower his ego.
For the past 2 seasons, Manchester United management has continued to comply with his requests, but the team's performance is getting worse, he must be able to change it and in my opinion it is very important for the coach to build a close relationship with the players to build chemistry for good team performance.
Now I doubt Ten Hag can improve Manchester United.

Erik Ten Hag would always want players to do as he has instructed, he forgets some players are recalcitrant to instructions, like in the case of Cristiano Ronaldo, exiting Old Trafford because of the continously triggered issues, some players can not just stand there and watch a manager insults them. In my view, I've not seen anything that Sancho have done wrong to deserved such harsh punishment, making him lose out on EPL games and also his presence is not needed on the training ground. Jadon Sancho is a competitive winger for the Red Devils but with the current beef with the coach, I see no way he would be able to fixed himself back to the starting line-up.

The legacy of Sir Alex creates a lot of pressure and expectations.
After his retirement, the fans want the same thing that Sir Alex achieved, And this puts great pressure on the club.
I don't blame ETH for how the team has been playing, United players don't fight back to get the ball when they lose it, ETH needs 110% from every player. No drama, just football.
And I still believe. Just time and Manchester United will be back again.
