West Ham vs Manchester City
West Ham have really been on an impressive rise at the start of this season. They were unbeaten in the first 4 matches where they only lost 2 points due to a draw against Bournemouth. David Moyes is responsible for the positive results obtained by West Ham in the last 4 matches, but this weekend he has to accept a tough challenge from defending champions Manchester City.
Manchester City has proven its quality as a team that is truly capable of maintaining consistent performance. They have not dropped a single point in the last 4 matches so people will be fully confident they can beat West Ham in their next away match. I hope the match will be difficult and not many goals will be scored throughout the match, but it all really depends on the team's overall performance.

In general, for this season, Manchester United needs players to support their own performance this season so they don't have to just throw away existing players. I think Antony should still be retained by Ten Hag even though Ten Hag himself has to make several other players to be better in a line that is no different from Antony.
We watched and experienced tough times at Old Trafford, but hoping everything will get better for the club as time goes on. The players specifically the frontlines having some problematic issues arising, for instance Anthony dropped from the squad due to the allegations levlled against him. We just hope he fall out to be innocent of all the allegations, because if he's guilty, that's the end of his limelight professional football career. Erik Ten Hag have done a great job for Manchester United, his presence have triggered good development for the club. 
Chelsea will travel to Bournemouth in the next week. I expect a better game from them. Despite playing as a guest team, Bournemouth's strength is not better than them. This could be a match that they can take advantage of to get full points at Bournemouth's home field.
1 win, 1 draw and 2 defeats is a start that cannot be said to be good for them. Therefore they must win this match, it is important because victory can be something that will be able to lift their morale.

I think they will win this match, but rather because their opponent is much weaker than Chelsea, they have two defeats and two draws at the start, not the best game. And in general Bournemouth has not been characterised by a good game, so... If they draw this match, it's a very bad sign for Chelsea, it means that nothing has really changed...
These are really unfortunate incidents which happening, but we can't blame Manchester United for this because these are individuals, so things are surely not good for the Manchester United with they are losing quality players due these unfortunate things but good thing they have suitable replacements which can give them good performance in coming matches with what happen to Antony it's not clear because all are in court, and we have to wait for the decision even mostly we have out of court settlements or other deals as well but still things like these having bad impact on players career.
Red Devils surely never wants incidents like these but here anything expecting from them is not applicable because they can't do anything but still they have to be cautious their players as these things can finish their impressive career too early with bad reputation which is never been good.
Manchester United troubles is not unfortunate; it is simply gross incompetence.
Why? The Mason Greenwood saga was poorly managed by Manchester United and it led to a social media brouhaha. Point 2, After Mason Greenwood incident; a competent team would perform private investigations before signing new players; but Manchester United did none of that and went ahead to sign Antony for 100m because Ten Hag vouched for him.
Now, they are forced to follow the Mason Greenwood precedent even though the police have not found the submitted evidence enough to arrest Antony. Which way from here?
I expect mufc players to become more victims of similar circumstances because of their bad leadership.

"Innocent until proven guilty", remember the case of Mendy of Manchester City, he was accused of multiple cases of rape by more than one woman, but in the end of it all he was not guilty, but he had already lost 2 years of his career. I think these footballers should also be protected, too many of these accusations turn out to be false and nobody talks about the extent of the damage done to the player. I am not justifying people who abuse the opposite sex, and i believe if anyone is found guilty of that they should be vigorously dealt with, but what's going to happen and who's going to pay for damages if the accusation is false.

I actually miss the days I used to see a fixture like this and already know that it's a 3 points match for Chelsea not now that from the way the boys have been playing we might even lose this game if we don't turn up well. Looking at the statistics, Chelsea are favorite as we have won them 3 times in our last 5 encounters but statistics doesn't win games because when that day comes, Chelsea mightn't have what it takes to win the game. We need the point and Pochettino should better use a starting lineup that can win us the game in the first half so the Bournemouth side will be demoralized before coming out for the second half for the game. We haven't started the season well and we need this win.
The issue I currently have with Chelsea coach Mauricio Pochettino is that I believe the coach should pay close attention to the team and be aware of the players they will be starting a game with because there are some players in Chelsea who don't deserve to start a ball. The reason I say that is because if a team's performance changes, the coach is the one that many people blame excessively, most notably the team's supporters who don't always see a player's fault but always blame on coach for the kind of formation he use.
Pochettino is a top coach, he has coached many top clubs so he isn't new to coaching. I don't understand why he's acting like a new coach. His formation has been poor and that's the main reason we're losing games that we can win easily and that's very frustrating. Pochettino doesn't have any excuse to be performing this poorly because he got everything he needed. He just have to motivate the team so they can play for him and the club. He shouldn't depend on wingbacks to win games as we have enough forward attackers in the team that he can put pressure on to deliver him the victories. He shouldn't be shy of dropping whoever's isn't playing good football so the team can start getting results.
The main problem with the chelsea team is that they have invested heavily in a bunch of average players and thats why it is difficult to get a result. Chelsea has a terrible attack and defense with an excellent midfield. What can a manager achieve with such team? They barely create, they find it hard to score and they cannot even defend their lead. I hope they atleast get a striker that can score goals
That’s not what i think the problem is, the players they brought in are not all average players, they are top stars from their respective teams and we all saw how well they performed in their teams so I wouldn’t say the investment is a bad one. I just think it the coach who is yet to figure out how to utilize them to get results. His tactics from the start of the season has not been good enough that’s why they find it difficult to win against Nottingham Forest who almost relegated last season, he is playing a two man attacking formation which is not enough to win comfortably against any premier team anymore and if he doesn’t change his tactics I don’t think he would have a better result.

The whole Manchester United team has problems in my opinion. I am not saying that they are not showing improvements at all. They are showing some improvement. But the quality of the squad needs to improve a lot for them to actually have good results and consistent results. And it is always going to be easy for people to point fingers towards the person who is making the biggest mistakes in the field. Harry Maguire is definitely not someone who is always making the best touches on the field. He is definitely causing a lot of problems. Now I know that the other players are also making some problems. But the problem is that Harry McGuire is making are more visible to people. So obviously people are going to talk about him a lot.
I agree Ten Hag has brought big changes to Manchester United, otherwise they would not have qualified for the Champions League group stages this season. Meanwhile regarding performance, Ten Hag was still unable to maintain or improve his team's performance well at the start of the season, so several strategy adjustments were needed there.
Of course, if Tottenham are able to defend consistently in every match this season then Harry Kane departure will not have a big impact on them. Apart from that I think a big impact is starting to be seen in their front line because Richarlison was not in his best form at the start of the season because he was Ange Postecoglou main choice but his performance was far from expectations. Richarlison has played 4 matches at the start of this season but he failed to contribute through goals or assists.
So, little by little, Tottenham will feel like they have lost their goal machine, Harry Kane. However, Son brilliant performance has made Tottenham run at the start of this season look perfect. I'm sure they will improve in the winter transfer window to strengthen their attack line.
Tottenham's current attack is surely having big impact in early matches of this season without legendary Harry Kane as they are having 11 goals from 4 matches which is impressive with their main striker is still not in good form which can make things better for them in coming matches, and we can expect good result from them which could be surely surprising because currently this all is beyond expectations of soccer community which was feeling Harry Kane lost can bring negative impact on this club.So, little by little, Tottenham will feel like they have lost their goal machine, Harry Kane. However, Son brilliant performance has made Tottenham run at the start of this season look perfect. I'm sure they will improve in the winter transfer window to strengthen their attack line.
Son and Maddison surely doing good with good support from Romero and other players making things better without any doubt if we have same level until winter then we can expect one of the best fight for the top fours in this season in Premier League.
First Mason Greenwood and now Antony... Manchester United are really unlucky to deal with this kind of problems as well. There are even memes out on the internet related to these news. It is just interesting to see this kind of incidents in the same team recently. As far as I know Greenwood is in the clear now too.
I hope the Red Devils don't have incidents like this anymore in the future. They should be able to just concentrate on their game to improve from now on. Because things aren't going on well for them these days. The players should be prevented from being demoralized.

Even though the case against Greenwood has been closed. But his career at Man United is over. In fact, I think his reputation has really fallen. Well that's a shame because Greenwood was also a pretty good player before getting these legal allegations. And now Antony is also experiencing almost the same incident. I'm pretty sure even this one case will be closed eventually. But the case will be closed after Antony's career will also fall just like Greenwood.
Greenwood is an English player and has to carry bigger burden from expectation for his career, contribution for Manchester United then England team as well as more observation on his life. Antony is a Brazilian player and he will carry less pressure from social media in England than Greenwood.Greenwood is a home-grown player of Manchester United while Antony costs them a lot of transfer fee. They will have more reason to protect Antony as well as has softer internal punishment on the swing back. The investigation is in early phase but I believe it can be solved through backdoors behind the scene.
Next week there are two matches that I think we should not miss. Namely the West Ham vs Man City match and the Man Utd vs Brighton match. And between these two matches, I am very curious about the results of the West Ham vs Man City match. Because these two clubs have not experienced defeat at the start of this season. I would not be surprised if Man City is unbeaten so far. But I was very surprised because West Ham were also unbeaten at the start of this season. I don't know how, but I hope there will be a surprise from West Ham in this match. If this were a match last season then of course West Ham would not be able to do much in the match against Man City. But I hope things are different this time.
Manchester United is not in good form at all, They had a dream with Anthony and he is officially out of the team Also their palyer Mason Mount is still injured while I'm sure Ten Hag was counting on both players and spicery on Mason Mount because they spent a huge amount of money for this palyer which can give Brighton a good chance in this game against Manchester United. Maybe it is worth taking the risk and betting on Brighton for for 3.10 rate.
These are very sad news. It is incomprehensible that the most valuable players in the world are involved in such events. It always surprises me that professional athletes do such things, they should pay extra attention to themselves.

West Ham have had a pretty good start to the season. They have quite an impressive performance and they have not even been defeated so far. However, this will be a tough fight for them because their opponent is Man City, which in my opinion has a slightly better performance than West Ham (Man City always wins in every match they have played, and they have quite high goal productivity so far). Playing as hosts is certainly an advantage for West Ham but that doesn't guarantee that they can offset the opponent's game throughout the match.Second match of the week is between Manchester United vs Brighton here another exciting match with any result can happen because Manchester United is not consistent, and they are also facing others off the field issues as well but Brighton clearly in good shape with they can turn the tables for themselves.
Bournemouth will try to use the advantage of playing at home to defeat Chelsea, but if Chelsea play well, they will be able to defeat Bournemouth. As everyone knows, Chelsea is a very good team with strong players, and even now, Chelsea have good players, but it's only a matter of time. Chelsea is the best team that signed many players this season, and I believe those players will surely return to their normal performance before the league end. Despite the difficulties Chelsea faced throughout the previous season, I believe it will eventually come to an end because I believe Chelsea will one day become the powerful and strong team that people are accustomed to seeing.

Everton at home has been a problem for Arsenal in previous seasons because they contributed to last season’s failure to win the Premier League, even though we know that they lacked squad depth last season. Nevertheless, with Everton’s current performance, I don’t think they can stop Arsenal from going home with three points, even if Arsenal play a three-man defense.
However, this season, Everton's performance has been a bit disappointing and they are still unable to show their stable abilities. They are still experiencing consecutive defeats and have not been able to recover. they seemed to be really down. Here, I'm not sure if Everton can beat Arsenal even if they play at home if you look at the conditions of their game and their performance so far. They experienced quite a significant decline. However, that doesn't mean that if Arsenal can underestimate Everton, this is not a good thing to do. Whoever the opposing club is, they will always be focused and try optimally, according to the tactics given correctly.
Regardless of his performance in Mamncshter United, Antony is officially out of the team and because of the drama he had before.
They say this player had bad behavior with his ex-wife and that's why I think there is going to be another story ahead for Manchester United just like they had Mason Greenwood before.
Recently, women all over the world has been using every little opportunity they get to extort money from professional footballers through false blackmails and the earlier anyone of them who's found of falsehood in their allegations is seriously dealt with, the better for the future of other footballers. He'll be back to playing for Manchester United immidiately he's cleared from any wrong doing
Martin keown said the problem of Manchester United is not Maguire but the midfield and is like they're all picking the man as if he's the only one playing the game. I quite agree with him.
If you look at it this way Maguire wasn't part of his plan and the UTD team is struggling, Casemiro who they thought would uplift team (Which he has been doing) is getting old and slow to me, he's not that mobile compare to his time at Madrid.
Whenever fans start pointing accusing fingers they do forget that the midfield is weak but when it comes to any little mistake they look back and scream Maguire.
Without the midfield Manchester United can't get any point even at home so I believe the coach should face the midfield inclusive of the attack (Antony should be left out for 3 to 4 matches). This week would cause them if something is not done to change the playing style.

I think Antony should still be retained by Ten Hag even though Ten Hag himself has to make several other players to be better in a line that is no different from Antony.
Ten Hag's season is not going as expected, and one of Manchester United's major concerns is wingers, and I heard that Ten Hag and Sancho did not get along, which may damage his performance. Antony has performed admirably thus far, and he will be out for some time until he is cleared. For the time being, Man United will manage Garnacho and other wingers until Antony returns, while Sancho's case may be a fit shot in order to receive the complete backing the club needs to avoid losing some points.Everton at home has been a problem for Arsenal in previous seasons because they contributed to last season’s failure to win the Premier League, even though we know that they lacked squad depth last season.

He is actually a young player who is quite talented and can be used by Ten Hag as one of the front line players who can sharpen the attack but the cases of violence he committed have had a negative impact on his career in football especially for European football.They say this player had bad behavior with his ex-wife and that's why I think there is going to be another story ahead for Manchester United just like they had Mason Greenwood before.
Manchester United management took a firm stance by giving an official statement that Antony would not return to play for Manchester United but according to rumors circulating this refusal was temporary and there was still a chance for Antony to return.
If this case is not resolved immediately then Antony could indeed suffer the same fate as Greenwood who really won't have the opportunity to play for Manchester United and could possibly destroy his career as a European footballer.
However, we just heard allegations so far and without seeing if he actually did it or not, we are not going to really have any type of result we know, it is not going to be that easy. I believe that the best thing to do in this case would be making sure that it is going to be something to care about on the long term. This is of course not an easy thing to do and it should be waited for the court case to end.
Antony has always become the main starter trusted by ten hag that played as a winger for manchester united. Many people are hoping him to come back as soon as possible. Some important matches are coming soon.
There's no good right winger owned by united other than him. United is also facing serious problem on its defensive. I can't even describe how horrible MU was when it was also losing one of the important winger used by the club.
It seems like that everything will be through hard ways for united. It appears antony to be a problematic player and manchester united will not protect him. Antony must be solving its problem by himself.
There would be no allegation toward him if he was not making a problem. Antony should have known his position as a professional footballer.
Unfortunately, as we have seen with Greenwood legal allegations can have a negative influence on a player career and image. The demands and scrutiny placed on English footballers especially those from prestigious clubs like Manchester United are extreme. Due to his Brazilian heritage Antony can feel more social media pressure in England. Additionally, the club might treat his situation more delicately as a result of his high transfer fee. One might hope for a settlement that does not further impair these potential footballers careers and lives, perhaps through covert behind the scenes measures, while it is important to let the judicial process play out.
