What are you trying to say here? Arsenal's last two goals has nothing to do with the disallowed MU goal. If you have a problem with the call then point it out on a technical level and not come of as someone saying MU was robbed of that goal so Arsenal could win. Garnacho was offside by the slightest of margins.

Being a Manchester United fan is heartbreaking, with no peace of mind and many disappointments.
The fans are tired of these losses. This club is filled with drama!
Of course, it's always sad when the lovely team gets into a difficult situation. Man United fans are experiencing the same situation as Chelsea fans.The fans are tired of these losses. This club is filled with drama!
However, if you are a real fan, you mustn't tired and leave your lovely team. You must still support Man United, you must believe Man United management will try to find out the solution. They may evaluate the tactics used by the coach, or may evaluate skills & mentality of the players.
And I hope the next game will see a change. Let's see what Amrabat and Hojlund bring to the team.
Amrabat and Hojlund are good players, but they need to adapt with the tactics of Man United. I don't know if they will adapt quickly, but you shouldn't expect too much on them. It is not easy to give their best when they are still adapting with everything.
I agree, for even if you re-watch the match it is clear that Arsenal were superior to Manchester United at many points, so the fans' outrage is nothing more than frustration at the defeat. After all, even assuming that their goal would have counted, it wouldn't change anything, for the score is 3-1

It's just sad that fans always know what might happen, but the manager doesn't care.
And I hope the next game will see a change. Let's see what Amrabat and Hojlund bring to the team.
They gave Arsenal a big fight and the Gunners were smart to take the few advantages they got to get a goal. I was thrilled by Jesus's third goal in the game, he was confident to know when to hold and strike. It won't take time they will start blaming Onana and I wonder what will goalkeeper when he is at the mercy of the defender. I don't know if they wanted him to do a miracle while the defense is not doing a good job.
For Arsenal to beat Manchester United by 2 goals, that means they might beat Manchester City also if they meet next and with this performance they can go forward in the league.
Arsenal was the better side in the game against Manchester United and the scoreline says it all.
Arsenal may very have a fighting chance when playing against Manchester City but not cause they won Manchester United by 2 goals. Needless to say, Manchester City is not on the same level with Man United and Arsenal comfortably winning Man United shouldn’t be used as a benchmark.
No doubt, Arsenal is in great form and strong enough to perhaps threaten Man City’s chances of winning the title again.

The game was dominated, when they controlled the ball they were really scary in contrast to Man United who seemed to rely more on counter attacks. Arsenal's creativity also looks more prominent, Oddegard and Martineli are very dangerous.

Yes, even with all this performance Arsenal had yesterday, the Manchester United fans can still agree that they lost the match because of their over-hyping. Although Manchester United weren't playing the ball with seriousness, if you check very well, Arsenal just didn't want to lose or draw the game as Manchester United did. That's why Arsenal played with full force and all the rest.
For Arsenal to beat Manchester United by 2 goals, that means they might beat Manchester City also if they meet next and with this performance they can go forward in the league.
I have a feeling that Wolves might fight to avoid relegation spots this season. I say this because even if the team is producing a good football is simply not enough to win games as Wolves have no real defenders right now 
.
Liverpool is a surprise for me as I didn't expect them to perform this good but Nunez is doing awesome job so far that puts Liverpool on a great start of the season.
I think there is something wrong with Wolves because they started the season well when they played against Manchester United and fought it out until 90 minutes despite conceding a goal late in the second half that was enough to help United win. There is still much time to pull themselves together especially with the international break to re-strategize and get back to their feet again. Liverpool recorded yet another crucial win against Aston Villa on Sunday to move up to 3rd position in the table over Westham and Arsenal..Liverpool is a surprise for me as I didn't expect them to perform this good but Nunez is doing awesome job so far that puts Liverpool on a great start of the season.
Wolves are not moving in the right route with how they have played they look likely to be relegated along with Luton Town and Everton this season. Selling some important players in the team without getting someone in the position as the replacement is not a good idea.
Neves left in the beginning of the season for Saudi Arabia. Another left for City and during deadline transfer they didn't do something about it. They look set for damnation with the moves.
Liverpool should grab all the points now with Europa League football they will drop back if they are not well managed and disturbed by fatigued.

Liverpool are far better than Aston Villa. Aston Villa made some good signings this summer and I expect to see improvements from Villa this season but it seems the performance of the team is gradually deteriorating. Towards the end of 2022/2023 season Aston Villa were far better than they are performing now, this level of performance cannot be acceptable if they want to play European competition next season.
The game went well overall for Liverpool and it was about time that they finally won two very important games back to back in the Premier League without having to swallow another setback again. I am still not sure what I think about Liverpool so far. They seem to be fit and hungry, but I have thought that so often last season and then they disappointed again. Who knows maybe Klopp was able to finally push the right buttons again and we can see the good old Liverpool this season.
The problem for Chelsea is when they still can't find a strategy that really suits them which makes their performance sometimes difficult to guess whether they will be in good condition or not.
They have been very good at dominance and possession but their attack still looks the same as last season which always had problems with scoring instincts.
Jackson must be able to prove himself more now because he is one of the hopeful players for Chelsea in terms of goals as for the midfield I think they are still quite good at dictating the game.
Mauricio Pochettino should enlighten the fans on the present conditions of Chelsea. I'm clueless about the level of concentration and starting point of the blues' problems. They had all it took to win Garibaldis today, but they failed to capitalize on their opportunities. It was a terrible defensive performance that allowed Taiwo Awoniyi and Elanga to intrude into their territory. Chelsea lost again, and it was incredibly disappointing to see the Blues lose to a mediocre side. Nottingham Forest keep Chelsea at range with a defensive and counter-attacking approach. They have been very good at dominance and possession but their attack still looks the same as last season which always had problems with scoring instincts.
Jackson must be able to prove himself more now because he is one of the hopeful players for Chelsea in terms of goals as for the midfield I think they are still quite good at dictating the game.
Chelsea's play in terms of possession and initiation from the midfielders is good enough, now it's just a matter of focusing on how they don't waste opportunities.
On the other hand at the moment I don't want to defend Pochettino but we want something instant in the few matches Chelsea have had, I am quite aware that a turnaround in performance is a good thing but Pochettino needs at least 1 season I think for a good turnaround because at the moment with their poor finish last season it is very difficult to want a significant change to be able to perform well and become a champion candidate. The dream is too good to be true.

After this defeat, we don't know what steps will be taken by Manchester United, bearing in mind that the UCL competition awaits this month which will make us even more doubtful, because with conditions like a match against a club like Galatasaray, it's definitely not guaranteed. To be realistic, I think it will be difficult for Manchester United to qualify for the group stage. Even Copenhagen and Galatasaray can be far superior to Manchester United. Bayern Munich doesn't need to be counted 
There were even moments when City went like 30 games without a loss easily. That feels like a huge achievement in itself because having that much consistency is not that easy for many teams. I am not saying big clubs do not get many points, sure City could end up with a big point totals at the end of the season, but in football we have seen great teams beat their toughest rivals and have 10 amazing win run and then end up losing to some relegation level team to end the win streak. That happens all the time and it is common.
I think it is quite important to realize that you should be doing it a lot better if you are careful and should be considering that as a thing. I hope that it can go towards a better way for them and not like that.

North London Derby was entertaining and tough. Both sides displayed their best performance and we had two experienced coach guiding their perspective teams. Arsenal al triumphed over the Red Devils with shocking two goals at injury time. No one sawed that coming, not even Mikel Arteta. Declan Rice making the different with a long shot into the opponent's box and returning Gabriel Jesus from injury doubling it to 3-1 on the scoresheet. Arsenal dominated and missed crucial goal scoring opportunities. It one of the most important game for Gunners and they definitely accumulated the require three points. I have a feeling that Wolves might fight to avoid relegation spots this season. I say this because even if the team is producing a good football is simply not enough to win games as Wolves have no real defenders right now .

Garnacho was offside by the slightest of margins.Instead of blaming VAR for the defeat I think it would be wiser if we highlight how fragile their concentration is because seeing from the conditions that occur when time enters crucial time (the first 10 minutes and the last 10 minutes) Manchester United always lack focus and this is not the first time it has happened for them to lose at a crucial time.
Chelsea have spent a lot of money so far since the beginning of the summer transfer window. But for now there is no big difference than the previous season when it comes to their performance. Jackson is really unreliable player right now. He just doesn't have good finishing skills as he wastes so many goal opportunities.
There is a lot of time to go for Nkunku to recover so I wish Chelsea signed another striker as well. Some players were rumoured but there was no deal at the end. I just hope them to improve this form as much as possible until Nkunku returns. After that things can get better hopefully.

Nicholas Jackson is good, but show on Saturday is what you get when team up without q proper attacking midfielders to link those attackers with good pass which to score goals.
How many chances was created in that game for him?
I'm not sure you saw that game. Though, Raheem Sterling created few but he wasn't good enough to find the back of the net or possibly linking another player to score.
The so called Nkuku isn't a striker. He is a winger who can also be useful behind the strikers with his crazy goal creation and also chances.

Chelsea only mistake when losing to Nottingham Forest was due to poor finishing due to not being able to maximize the opportunities they had. Chelsea was able to dominate the match with ball possession reaching 73%, Chelsea was also able to make 21 attempts and several of them were on goal. Luck has not been on Chelsea side, they had to suffer their second defeat this season after previously losing to West Ham. The injury storm also greatly affected Chelsea appearance, Pochettino had to lose several of his mainstay players which made him have to develop a strategy with several substitute players.
If Pochettino can do something better in the dressing room then I think Chelsea will be even better. I don't know if Pochettino is capable of doing it, but he is a pretty serious type of coach. Pochettino has to solve very basic problems, so he doesn't have to think that his playing strategy is not good. Of course I expected a better performance from Chelsea, but I admit Pochettino is still having difficulty making it happen.
Well, everyone thinks that Pochettino performance is not very satisfactory, especially after he sold many players in the transfer market and recruited several players who are currently still having difficulty adapting to the strategy he is implementing. So their performance doesn't seem to have changed from their game last season.
