Spurs kept clean sheet against manchester united, 2 nil on the scoresheet. The Lilywhites know ways to handle visitors this new season, it's no shocking news to see the excellent performance from the home team. Manchester united suffered defeats in their second league game, really big trouble for the red devils. Manchester united jeopardize most of their goal scoring chances in the first half. Erik Ten Hag needs to get his players in position if he wants to continue winning games. Tottenham Hotspur performance was brilliant, with amazing performance from the players who showed prowess infront of goals.

That shouldn't surprise you especially as they were playing like they were scared. I saw the way they played against Aston Villa, like they literally did not let Unai Emery's men breathe and I expected them to do the same to Man City but no, they were content to play safe.
Pep is a coach that knows how to feed on the mistakes of his opponents and some mistakes that the Newcastle side were sorely punished. You wouldn't even know that Kevin de bruyne was absent because of the way Phil Foden managed to cover that lapse( except you count the way Haaland was locked )
 I feel like they didn't do well enough because they had countless opportunities to level the match especially from a chance given to Almiron in the 86-87th min and he went on to waste it. It was just their defense in the person of Danny Burn that helped locked the likes of Foden and Haaland from coming through else there would have been more goals.

I am surprised at Newcastle only one shot on goal during the whole game as they came here from a crushing victory 5-1 against Everton in the first game of the season.Maybe Newcastle tried to defend and to get one point here as they knew they were playing against the strongest team in the Premier League while Manchester City on the other hand did their game and won 1-0,the important for them were the three points which they got and are now at the top of the table.
I think Haaland needs a bit more games to be in full power when it comes to scoring goals,we will see him score a lot of them throughout the tournament.

Ten hag is confusing right now. The club can't only rely on rashford. Lisandro martinez is now acting like meguire. It seems like that i shall change his name as lisandro meguire. Meguire is now having a new brother that has same performance as him.
Lisandro meguire was giving assist for the first goal from totenham and then he was helping totenham to secure full points through his own goal. There's no good defenders in manchester united.

All the performances from MU defenders are the same as meguire. We have another meguire now. It's so funny to see this guy is showing if he is as good as meguire in making blunders.
Many people are laughing at him now. Meguire is not the only one who must be blamed caused by all of his funny blunders. We have a new meguire now.

They had some good chances in the first half. Everyone in United had good chances of scoring in first half but they all sent it wide. And so they were punished in second half quite badly. Not surprised by Spurs win as they were really playing nice football but given standards of United, United really should have done better.

About Mount, he could be really useful if ten Haag plays him in role where Fernandes plays but that will mean Fernandes going back to defensive midfield position. They can try Van de Beek but it seems right now ten Haag prefers Mount over Van de Beek.

Newcastle is still losing against city even with a small margin. Gvardiol, kovacic and fooden have been showing impressive performances. Haaland was not able exploring the chance of scoring more goals without KDB. The major problem is KDB was always become the player that was supplying a good pass for haaland. Haaland's performance is quite inconsistent at this moment. My applause was going for alvarez. There are two different things between haaland and alvarez. Haaland is good at finishing, but alvarez has more than it.
Alvarez has a very good dribbling success compared with haaland and he could also score the goal from various sides. He is such an underrated striker at this moment.
I must be honest if alvarez can become a key player for manchester city this season. His performance is always growing even better than before.

Yes. The Hojlund effect has not played so easily people say Manchester United is bad and so on

Because it is still blue so the effect is carried away until when wearing a red jersey. The defeat that had just occurred at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium deserves normally because of one and two things we can see in two matches that have been played. Mount hasn't moved on from the bad game that must be forgotten when it has changed the club.

Correct. Mount position is worth playing in Garnacho's position as a wing attacker or in a position that occupies Bruno Fernandez as a playmaker.
Bruno can still be played in the middle midfielder with Casemiro.
Garnacho is a typical player who is suitable to be played as a substitute to change the situation of the match like the role of Ole Solskjaer while still actively playing.

Yes, the management of the Manchester City club made by Pep managed to make extraordinary achievements last season, but Haaland was also a big influence on this achievement because the 3 trophies that Manchester City owned last season could not be separated from Haaland's contribution as the player who scored the most goals and assists.
Try to imagine if Haaland wasn't there, is it possible for Manchester City to have 3 trophies in one season?
Haaland is a hero for Manchester City and it looks like Haaland will be a loyal player or player who has a career in football with Manchester City for a long time to come.

For this season, from the start of the season, we can already see how great Manchester City are in playing because from the two matches at the start of the season, Manchester City managed to win.
Haaland also has 2 goals in his first two games in this season.

many were disappointed by Man United defeat at home to Spurs even though many fans wanted at least MU to win but the reality is very sad Spurs should not be a difficult opponent for MU but after all playing at home does have a bigger chance for Spurs so I respect Man United this week.
there were lots of opportunitie that Man United players missed, its just that the kicks were not on target and I also have the same hope if this is the start of MU bad things that must be evaluated immediately because otherwise this will have an inconsistent effect in every match. I hope it does not happen again like last season when suddenly Man United performance was lost and several other teams were almost underestimated.
I know Ten Hag is an experienced coach and must give direction to his player to immediately correct any mistakes in the match against Spurs so that the future will be better.

@Despairo when I started watching the match I realised that Manchester United were playing really sloppy football and it was only a matter of time before Tottenham would score so I wasn’t surprised to see Tottenham win this game.

Furthermore Ten Hag should have played Van De Beek even as a sub he would do a better job then Mount because compare their preseason and you’ll see that Donny was the better player and if Ten Hag doesn’t change something quick he may actually become the first manager of the new season to get the sack.

2 wins and scores 8 goals it makes Brighton currently in the top of standing league it seems although Brighton losing some of their important players because of summer transfer but it doesn't have any affect to their performance and if this season Brighton can able to showing their consistency i think they can be considers as strong contender for top 4 position and their player Solly March currently is on fire because he can able to scores 3 goals from 2 matches

Meanwhile after only can able to playing draw against Chelsea in the week 1 finally Liverpool can gets 3 points from Bournemouth and playing at anfield i can see Liverpool were dominate the match although in the second half Liverpool playing with 10 players but it doesn't make them to stopped to playing attacking but i am quite worried about Mac Allister red card because next week Liverpool will fight against Newcastle so if Mac Allister got suspension and will not be available i think it will have any affect for Liverpool performance later

The Manchester United vs Tottenham game intensified in the second half with Spurs leading 1-0. There are indications that Tottenham pressure could cause Man Utd to lose. Man Utd is concerned because Harry Ten Hag tactical decisions are still up in the air. Spurs are favoured as the game progresses in terms of possession and goal threats. To salvage a draw and stop additional goals Hen Tag must adjust its strategy. I think To avoid a Chelsea like season, improvement of United attack is crucial following their unexpected 2-0 loss.

Hold on, Hojlund haven't play yet, if he's already recovered from his injury, we will see Manchester United win streaks

That's what most of Manchester United fans saying, so Manchester United lose in this match is really normal. Mount's heart is still blue, that's why his performance is bad, he should forget about Chelsea and adapt with his new club.

Mount should play in left winger position since we already know Bruno will always play in attacking midfielder, his position should be replaced with McTominay.

Etihad Stadium is turning into a fortresses. This Man City squad is on fire, picking up right where they stopped last season. Despite missing several key players, Manchester City keeps pushing forward. Pep's team is determined to defend its title. I have to admit, Newcastle did a good job by only conceding one goal against City. Not everyone gets the opportunity as they've held off the treble winners.

Mount once again becomes a trending topic on twitter. That being said that if mount may be a flopp. So many critics were coming toward his performance. Two matches, 0 assist and goals. It's horrible performance as his price is not really worth with what he has been given to the united. So many people keep mocking him now and this is why mount may continue performs so badly. It's very hard time for mount as he needs to perform better as soon as possible.
I do feel what happened with him. He has burden to show good performance as soon as possible. People may still speculate his future.

As I predicted earlier, I said that City will win this game with a narrow score. even without being supported by some of its core players, City still put on a very good performance. Phil Foden played very well in last night's match, Alvarez put his assist to good use. City really controlled the game, unfortunately they missed several important opportunities to increase their advantage. in this match, Pep Guardiola made two changes to the main line-up from their last match against Sevilla in the European Super Cup. Palmer was not played, instead Pep played Alvarez. while Ruben Dias was introduced from the early minutes to replace Nathan Ake who was kept on the bench. Pep, successfully brought his team to victory at their own base even though several players were not played.

On the other hand, Eddie Howe did not make any changes to his starting line-up, just like when Newcastle won the victory over Aston Villa. but unfortunately, in this match Newcastle is like a team that has difficulty penetrating the opponent's defense line.  throughout the course of the game, Newcastle only had one shot on target. in fact, Newcastle are more likely to play defensively. in this match, Pep has proven that even without De Bruyne, Silva, his team still put on a pretty good game. even though only one goal, City still won full points.

We can determine Eddie's players' imperative performance; this is the second round and they have recorded defeats; we are still monitoring to see what the club's prospective consequences are. Manchester City beat Newcastle United by a single goal. It was an challenging match for the magpies; they absorbed the majority of the pressure from the cityzens, but failing to equalize the goal kept them uncomfortable. We're all familiar with Manchester City's sloppy defensive mistakes, but the Magpies still squandered a goal scoring opportunity that would have settled the score to a 1-1 tie. Pep Guardiola believes that Manchester City's game has evolved dramatically this season.

After the match Jamie carragher a former Liverpool defender and skysports pundit said that Manchester are likely not to challenge for any as title contenders until they sign another a player in another area, of which he mentioned the CDM wing and to be honest that is one area of the wing i really think they should look into, because if you noticed in match against Tottenham they could dominate in that area and both Bruno Fernandes and Mount looked lost and the attackers couldn't covert their created chances to a goal, but the worst player in that match was Casimiro he looks very unfit and too heavy to carry himself around the pitch therefore they'll need a new challenge in that possession and also rest Casimiro to undergo some trainings till he's fit against.
 I don't know why they're stalling in Amrabat's deal, they need to act fast and submit a bid for him before it gets hijacked by Liverpool, although they've agreed terms with the player, but Fiorentina might accept a deal with Liverpool if you they first table a good bid for him, i know Manchester united needs a offload some players before they could get in new ones but they need to act fast in offloading some player before Liverpool hijacks Amrabat's deal.

Pep Guardiola is just looking for what will justify his spending when he opens the banks in January transfer window or the summer. Pep Guardiola is a heavy spender among the top managers and he has spend the highest money in a very short period so he shouldn't be talking about Chelsea spending because that's what all the teams he has managed is known for. Chelsea are rebuilding so obviously they're good to spend and also the previous owner made the new owner promise that he's going to invest over a billion onto the clubs when he takeover and that's why Todd Boehly has just done and now the club has a new look and that's what they were trying to do from the beginning but made some mistakes. Chelsea aren't just spending, they're also selling and making profits especially from academy players.


Chelsea is winning the premier league, I keep saying this and I'll keep saying it every game week because that's going to be the reality. We're going to finish in the top four obviously when we win the league and to start that journey, watch us destroy West harm later today when we play them. West ham has lost more London derby in the premier league so I'm not scared playing them later today. Chelsea are in their best shape for a very long time and they have players in all position that are arguably among the best in their position in the premier league so there's no worries about we winning our games and competing for the premier league trophy. It's very unlikely that we ends in the similar situations we found ourselves last season, this season is going be epic for the blues.

I think we saw how good Newcastle United are in this match. I can say that they played a better match against Manchester City than I expected. Newcastle lost 3 points in this match and it's sad for them of course but losing by Manchester City wouldn't be a big deal because right now they are the team with the biggest title contender in the Premier League.
