Newcastle striker Alexander Isak have won the English Premier League Player Of The Month award from December as well the as Best Goal of the Month award. Personally, I felt he deserved it more than any one else after his stellar performances for his club last month. His stunning goal against Manchester United in their 3:3 draw last month earned him the award for best goal of the month which helped the swedish striker win double awards in December. Do you think he deserves it or do you any a different opinion as to who deserved it more? Let me read your thoughts

What an absolutely brilliance from Alexander Isak. Since his arrival to Newcastle, he has been contributing to the clubs success and I’m glad to see he has become one of the premier league best strikers. He deserves the English Premier League player of the month award for December. What a great individual performance from the young Swedish striker. I hope he keeps up the good form.

I am not surprised and I was expecting to hear such news because his recent performance has been outstanding in December till date. He is a good finisher and does not miss his target. His contribution for his club is more than enough and I know that Newcastle will be proud of him for his commitment and consistency to the team.

Arsenal's near success syndrome have limited them from claiming the English Premier League title in recent years especially in the last two seasons that they dominated the top spot more than any other team managed but still ended up not winning the league. This season that Liverpool have dominated more, I don't think Mikel Arteta's Arsenal will be able to finally lay their hands on the league trophy.
I think the major problem that's haunted and limited Arsenal chances of winning the league in the last two seasons is the mentality of the players. The club players in my opinion lacks the strong mentality of a team that believes so much on themselves and until they work on their mentality, I don't think they'll be able to lift the league trophy

I don't think Arsenal are yet ready to win the English Premier League. The English premier League is very competitive and if a club wants to thrive in such a competitive league they need to focused and intentional in their style of play. Not just playing good football and not having any trophy to show for it. Arsenal need to be more rigid and change their mentality to be able to yield a good result. I think if Mikel Arteta can be able to change his tactical approach to the team with the quality of the team, they may just be able to win the Premier League.

I think the problems that occur at Arsenal are quite complex and that makes Arteta confused to find the best way out. They have to find other players to replace players who have been injured for a long time. On the other hand, they also have problems with their strikers. I think Arsenal is not a team that has a lot of money to recruit many players like Chelsea. They have to solve the most important problems first. Getting the desired players is also not easy. It would be a shame if this season they had to be runners-up again. Three times second place in a row is not something to be proud of. I think Arsenal will be champions this season because of City's poor performance. But it turned out that Liverpool appeared dominant and became the first favorite to win the title.

Even though the problem is quite simple, Arteta doesn't seem to realize it.
IMO, Arsenal does not lack attacking players. Arteta has reliable attacking players and has good skills. Let's see how the attack line is filled with quality and reliable players.
The problem right now is not about the players but Arteta cannot maintain the stability of the team's performance and has the ambition to pursue the title in every competition. So Arsenal always fails every season to win the EPL title.
Just imagine what if Arsenal focused more on prioritizing the EPL title, the results would definitely be very good.
But Arteta did not do that and every season he always started the season with a very good performance and in the middle of the season started to lose his best performance.
Well, that's the problem that Arteta has often repeated until now.

Myself in particular has complained about this aspect of Mikel Arteta, we want to see consistency, you don't start very well at the beginning of the season and end up with poor performance almost every time, the other time Manchester City had to win the title with just two points just because of Arsenal inconsistency to follow up with the way they've started. Currently they are having issues with lots of players with injuries, which to a large extent have affected their performance in their last three or four matches. However Arteta needs to unravel the catalyst he needs to be consistent enough to win the EPL, if not his performance has been great since he arrived Arsenal.

Rather than recruiting players who already have a name, I see Arteta could be better when he develops young players, and that's what actually brought him this far. So this must be thought about by Arteta, some of the players he brought in did not show the contribution according to expectations, not bad, but could not significantly lift the team's performance either. So maybe he can do options such as looking for young players, or recommending young players to be part of their squad. But the risk is that the process will definitely be quite long and can also be successful or not, but he must be able to decide something.

This scenario requires a process, which is why Arsenal have always had difficulty winning the EPL trophy since Arsene Wenger was still in charge. Now is not the time to experiment, Arteta must find an easier way by bringing in classy players to compete for trophies.
Liverpool are getting stronger, Chelsea are trying to recover with the quality players they have brought in, Man City will also try to get back to their best form. If Arsenal rely on young players, the trophy will be further away from them.

I find it difficult to believe that Mikel Arteta spent such a significant of money in the transfer market yet still struggles to find quality replacement for key players in important position this highlight a lack of technical planning and precision in their transfer dealings. Arsenal should adopt a more deliberate and focused approach to their transfers. They need to identify their primary target early and make decisive move to secure them.

Arsenal seems to be confused about what they are focused on. On the other side, Arteta needs a cover player to replace the long-injured a player like Saka, but on other side, he need a new attacker to cover barren players like Gabriel Martinelli dan Kai Havertz. Arsenal try to recruit Isak, but Newcastle immediately restrict that player to arsenal because both will meet on leg 2 semifinal carabao cup, so if he goes there, that possible will turn things around to be complicated. Now, arsenal must be managed what they were looking for, I think the big problem to fix it asap is the quarterback. Arsenal must recruit new player to replace Saka, and adding ammunition on center fields.

What Arteta has done in his coaching so far is inseparable from what he has learned from two great coaches so far, namely Wenger and Guardiola, the characteristics of the game applied by Arteta are indeed inseparable from the method he got from the two coaches by combining young and old players so far, I think what Arteta does will not be effective in the near future and usually to get a right team It's ideal with a mix of young players and experience will take a long time, so I think that's why Arsenal are constantly being criticized for their chances of winning the title, although they has been title contenders in the Premier League but the fans don't care about that other than about the trophy so far.

Arsenal management should add more players to their squad. Arsenal squad has less talented players. That is why Arsenal's performance is erratic after the injury of important players in the squad.

I don't think Arsenal will benefit much by adding young players to the squad. I think Arsenal management's goal is to win the Premier League title. Despite performing well in the last few seasons, the team has failed to become champions. If they add young players to the squad, maybe after 2/3 years Arsenal will be able to form a strong squad. However, if they want to do well in the recent times, they must add talented and experienced players to the squad.

Pick the players from the academy or buy young potential players indeed it could be a good idea because young players could be a long-term investment for Arsenal's future squad and Arteta has previously been successful in promoting Bukayo Saka from youth academy which eventually he was able to become a key player from Arsenal and for this season i can see Arteta has attempts to give more minutes to play to their young player Myles Lewis-Skelly and i can see he has played 14 times in total in all competitions with Arsenal

But one of the main factors why Arsenal failed to being an the champion of Premier league is because their squad was too dominated by young players which we know the mentality of young players is unstable so it's not possible to rely too much on young players and in my opinion in addition to developing the talents of young players i think Arsenal should also buy players who already have big names

When you talk about Mikel arteta bringing in younger players into the squad from the academy, what I was asking myself is that will arsenal be able to wait for them to mature and be ready?

Because I know for a fact that when blending younger players from the academy into the squad, it takes a whole lot of time, and sometimes it wouldn't work out as expected just as you have already said in your statement, so the best approach to me is that due to the fact that arsenal are gunning for the title and they can't afford to be patient with any player right now, they just have to enter into the transfer market and buy someone that is ready, someone that can improve the team immediately, someone that can replace Saka and a pure central forwarder to lead their attack, than thinking of bringing in younger players that are mere experiment, which they can't afford to do right now, because anymore slip up will surely be detrimental in the quest for the title, so if they really want to compete, they should go into the transfer market and acquire who is ready and can improve their team immediately.

It seems West Ham got Julen Lopetegui the forget coach fired and they have started working with Graham Potter.
West Ham stopped working with Lopetegui just after six months because of the weak performance they had during the time when he was working there and that's why they hired Potter and signed a two-year contract with the 49-year-old coach to start working there.
Back in 2023, Potter got fired from Chelsea after losing a game against Aston Villa and now he return to the Premier League as the coach of West Ham this can be a good chance for him to prove himself again if he can have good performance in his new team.
West Ham is currently in the 14th place of the Premier League table.

https://www.transfermarkt.com/graham-potters-premier-league-record-analysed-set-to-become-new-west-ham-boss/view/news/448323

You know this is funny, after losing 2-0 to Aston Villa as the head coach of Chelsea which he got fired like you said, West Ham gave him another opportunity to redeem himself and he lost again to Aston Villa but this time around his team scored and the game ended 2-1. I'll have to say welcome back to EPL Graham Potter, getting a job and also losing your first game is a sign to show that West Ham should not expect too much from Potter. West Ham already is a failed club that they need to rebuild by getting new players especially the midfield, that position should be rearrange, sell some of the players and get in new ones and also the attacking position need some new faces and they shouldn't pressure Potter or else he'll make more mistakes like it happened at Chelsea.

It was a bad result for a coach in his debut but I can understand that every coach must need to adapt and they also can't immediately change the team to be unbeatable when the club itself is in a slump, the defeat against Aston Villa must be used as evaluation material for the new coach and fix what is wrong with the team so that in the EPL match they can be better.

I'd rather not put my bet onto Liverpool seeing how low the odds is. The game against 3rd tier team is gonna be easy game for sure. I'm thinking to pick total over 3.5. It seems to me Liverpool is gonna beat them with huge scores.

I don't even think there will be major changes in the Liverpool's line up. I guess Salah or Diaz may be rested, but not sure bout the rest.

Even if Liverpool use their secondary squad, and still lead in term of quality of squad.

Skip the odds for betting, looking at football side, Liverpool need to use their players wisely in this unimportant but very likely easy match in FA Cup. Acrington is not a strong opponent compares to Liverpool and FA Cup needs to be put at very low priority of Liverpool. They need to narrow their priorities to Premier League and Champions League, two biggest titles they can win. Especially Premier League where they already played well and created good differences against competitors, good chance for them to win this title.

Champions League is promising but even if Liverpool wo't win it, only going far in Champions League can help their income a lot. FA Cup is like too small compares to Premier League and Champions League, so Liverpool need to give their important players fully rest in this match with Acrington. So will Acrington have chance to make a shock?

I guess chance is so small, as with alternative players, Liverpool are still stronger than Acrington and will win this match.

There will be an FA Cup match between Liverpool vs Accrington and also a few other matches of course, but I'm just curious whether Liverpool will still manage to win with an impressive score or only win with a thin score. Because after all, considering the opponent faced by Liverpool is only Accrington and will certainly make Liverpool play with second-tier players.

Thus, I became not too confident to choose Liverpool, because of course Liverpool became very favorite with very low odds. Thus, if I continue to bet on this match then of course I am looking for other options to get bigger odds, but at the same time I am not entirely sure Liverpool will win with a big score because they may only play second-tier players.

I don't know if Accrington is a 3rd division club? That's the first time I've heard of it.
If you bet on Liverpool 1X2 the odds will not be worth the profit even though it is clear that Liverpool will win but it is not worth betting, but indeed betting on goals will be better and it could be Liverpool winning in a big score.
Before betting, you have to look at the line-up first, but I think Liverpool can win by a landslide.

Hmmm, it seems that I am outdated about the things of football. I had always linked Moyes to Westham United not knowing that he is no longer there. I was surprised to hear that Julen was there and now Graham Potter. It's a pity I don't know what is happening.

Meanwhile, Graham Potter is a good coach right from the Brighton days and I still hold him in esteem even if his Chelsea deal didn't go well. Maybe he needs more time to get used to the boys and deliver.

Graham Potter is indeed a good manager but being at a club that does not have quality players often makes his career not go well. Westham United have not performed well this season and they are in 14th position in the standings. There is still a lot of work to be done because if only relying on the current conditions it will not make it easy to achieve success to improve their position to be better in the standings.

In the first match against Aston Villa he lost but I saw that Westham United's form was much better compared to the previous manager. Graham Potter has to work harder because it is not easy to be a manager of a team that does not have good quality players and maybe it will be much more difficult like handling Chelsea.

Arsenal are not a rich club and they have limited budget as well as undeep player resource so that Arteta as a head coach, must be well-thought about his plan for the team like what are their main focuses in a season. Premier League and Champions League can be their biggest priorities, and they need to focus on these competitions. Other cups need to be in very low prioritizing ranks and Arteta need to use alternative players, young players for matches in all cups. This will be helpful for the club, coach and players to have best player resources for Premier League and Champions League.

Saka is super important with Arsenal and Arteta need to use this player cleverly, as said don't use him in any cup matches and only use him in Premier League and Champions League. We already saw consequences of overuse Saka recent seasons, he has become more sensitive with injuries, get more injuries, more serious ones, need longer recovery time, and miss more matches for Arsenal.

It seems West Ham got Julen Lopetegui the forget coach fired and they have started working with Graham Potter.
West Ham stopped working with Lopetegui just after six months because of the weak performance they had during the time when he was working there and that's why they hired Potter and signed a two-year contract with the 49-year-old coach to start working there.
Back in 2023, Potter got fired from Chelsea after losing a game against Aston Villa and now he return to the Premier League as the coach of West Ham this can be a good chance for him to prove himself again if he can have good performance in his new team.
West Ham is currently in the 14th place of the Premier League table.

You know this is funny, after losing 2-0 to Aston Villa as the head coach of Chelsea which he got fired like you said, West Ham gave him another opportunity to redeem himself and he lost again to Aston Villa but this time around his team scored and the game ended 2-1. I'll have to say welcome back to EPL Graham Potter, getting a job and also losing your first game is a sign to show that West Ham should not expect too much from Potter. West Ham already is a failed club that they need to rebuild by getting new players especially the midfield, that position should be rearrange, sell some of the players and get in new ones and also the attacking position need some new faces and they shouldn't pressure Potter or else he'll make more mistakes like it happened at Chelsea.

Hmmm, it seems that I am outdated about the things of football. I had always linked Moyes to Westham United not knowing that he is no longer there. I was surprised to hear that Julen was there and now Graham Potter. It's a pity I don't know what is happening.

Meanwhile, Graham Potter is a good coach right from the Brighton days and I still hold him in esteem even if his Chelsea deal didn't go well. Maybe he needs more time to get used to the boys and deliver.

300 million dollars was what Mikel Arteta spent on the last transfer window and he failed to get good replacement for the important positions. Or do you think the money was not enough for him? Well compared to the amount giving to Chelsea coach and Pep Guardiola at that time it was small. Still, it can afford to get a good replacement for Odegard and Saka most importantly. If you notice most of the players now in their team that are performing very well is Lewis Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri. The two players are not above 19 years of age. Coming from the Academy and doing wonders in the big team. I dont think Mikel Arteta should focus on getting a midfielder or defender again. He did that last season. This time if he really wants to win the league then he should prioritize getting a striker, and two wingers (left and right).

I find it difficult to believe that Mikel Arteta spent such a significant of money in the transfer market yet still struggles to find quality replacement for key players in important position this highlight a lack of technical planning and precision in their transfer dealings. Arsenal should adopt a more deliberate and focused approach to their transfers. They need to identify their primary target early and make decisive move to secure them.
