Arsenal just like Wolves is one of the teams that has had the most difficult fixtures at this start of the season. To make things worse for Arsenal, they have many injury problems that made them not to be able to field their regular starting eleven in all those games. Although the point differences between Liverpool and the other teams like Arsenal is wide, the season has just started and any lack of concentration or relaxation by the Liverpool players from thinking that they have already won this league may end badly.

Arsenal are not as strong as were last season and there are a few things that may not be able to get them out of the pressure after having three bad games although the last time they faced Chelsea they managed to get a point at Chelsea's home.
Arteta must try to make some changes in the upcoming games because if he doesn't do it then Arsenal's chances of competing for the title will be further behind.

They have failed to maximize the strength of the team this season even though they are influenced by several core players who are injured.
The race will be even tougher as other challengers are also getting stronger with some changes this season.
Since Mikel Arteta became Arsenal's head coach, Arsenal has had their best season in the last two Premier League seasons when they failed to win the Premier League title. I know some Arsenal key players are injured, which is the reason why they are finding it difficult to win their matches in the league, but Arsenal's performance at the start of this Premier League season was not as strong compared to their start in the last two Premier League seasons. Even though Arsenal's key players who are injured regain fitness, Arsenal will not be able to challenge for the Premier League title this season because Arsenal's players lack the energy and confidence to win their matches this season. I think Arsenal will know they are slowly returning, and if time is not taken, they will not qualify in the top four of the Premier League table.

I still believe that Pep Guardiola still has the ability to fix the negative results that have been experienced by the Manchester City team in its last few matches. Because Pep Guardiola is not the type of coach who gives up with bad results, so I still have faith that Pep Guardiola is still able to resolve every problem he is currently facing and will make Manchester City win the upcoming matches this season even though they are slightly behind Liverpool in the current Premier League standings.
The problem is not only the number of injured players or negative results in 4 games but maybe other teams have developed more than what Man City or Pep expected, it was seen in the defeat against Brighton when KDB came on no additional goals were scored but instead the home team turned the game around. In this season Pep is under a lot of pressure even though his performance in the future will be better or overcome, but I doubt he will present a major trophy before his departure.
The injuries of some important players have made Manchester City performance very poor at the moment, even the consecutive defeats they have had have been the first time in Guardiola's career so far, but I don't even see Manchester City current performance will be a burden and get pressure from Manchester City, because it is a natural thing for a coach to be down in one season after 4 consecutive seasons of winning the championship trophy.  Guardiola is an innovative coach and has the ability to restore the team's performance to stability so far, so I think we can't get rid of Manchester City at the moment from the championship trophy competition, altthough they are 5 points behind Liverpool and I believe Manchester City will still be able to catch up later.

In this season Pep is under a lot of pressure even though his performance in the future will be better or overcome, but I doubt he will present a major trophy before his departure.
When it comes to issues of presenting a better trophy before leaving, for a coach like Pep, his not the kind that isn’t equal to the challenge. We all know his eyes are glued on the champions league and though his team might be rocking a bartered boat on rough waters, they always get it together eventually.

I don't think that City management will think of doing such a thing to see Pep as the major cause of their four consecutive losses, because it's first in history to happen with Pep in City. City players about 5 of them are injured which Rodri is part of them. We know the major role Rodri do play in the club, De Bruyne is not strong yet. A lot of injury truama here and there is enough for City management to understand that the club will not be in a good form. Real Madrid is also passing through theirs.
Should that be the case, then the board or City fans would be so much ungrateful as to how Pep has managed the team this far. Every team does have there time when they take some hit and losses, Manchester City isn’t immune to that and the best for them is, they are capable of coming back strong. A lot is going on with the Manchester City team right now and there isn’t any coach more better to fix the team than Pep. Him standing on the sidelines alone is enough to inspire his players to bring out the best of their creativity and go for the goal.

I was just thinking about what it would take to see Pep Guardiola getting fired! Cheesy I have always thought that it is impossible for him to ever lose his job and I still think it is, but from a hypothetical point of view, I wonder when a club's management would decide to sack him? Cheesy Four losses is of course not enough. He could probably lose 8 consecutive games and still wouldn't get fired. Probably 12... But it is a new situation that Pep Guardiola hasn't been in yet. This could either snowball and Manchester City is far more nervous than usually or they will soon answer with an impressive winning streak.
Management does not need to fire Pep Guardiola because his contract will expire at the end of the season, if they start to be dissatisfied with his performance due to the negative results achieved by Manchester City, then there will be no negotiation of a contract extension at the end of the season. Although Guardiola position is currently safe, he also has the responsibility to resolve the problems that occurred in the last four matches. Manchester City is threatened with not being able to continue its dominance if it does not immediately improve its quality and it will be an unpleasant farewell if the club and Guardiola decide not to continue their collaboration.

I'm very happy to see Chelsea has showed some improvements in this game. Unlike last season, when we always lost to Arsenal, we did better by getting a draw.

The first half was so awful, though, second half a bit better and we desperately want to win the game. But we once again lost three points due our goalie.

Our goalie looked like dead wood when he tried to block Martinelli's shot. He was a liability to us. But, i was happy neto saved us with his superb shoot.

A draw is fair. We buried Arsenal's title hopes and at least we don't lose against them. RIP to the Arsenal's title challenge.

Chelsea was able to draw with Arsenal 2-2 even last season, but they lost 5:0 at the Emirates in the second leg. Chelsea's defense is stronger this season than it was the previous one, allowing every opponent to get past them and score goals. It's great to see Chelsea back to their best form this season, it's been a while since we've seen them play at their best level. I was sure Chelsea wouldn't lose because Arsenal has developed into a team that opponents are comfortable playing against, since Arsenal appears to be so weak, I'm not sure if any team will be scared to play them in the Premier League right now.

However, Chelsea was able to draw since one point earned is better than losing the whole point, and they are still in the top four as a result of their draw against Arsenal. Arsenal is no longer in the running for the Premier League title this season, they are nine points from the top of the table, and I don't think Liverpool, who are beating the other teams, will lose nine points before the season end, and Manchester City is still in the running for the trophy.

Correct, Manchester City has to worry about Pep, all they need is looking the results in this season, then they will decide to extend Pep's contract or search for new coach. Any coach will want to manage Manchester City because they're the strongest team in Premier League and full of star players.

Pep is just trying something new, look how he not include De Bruyne as a starter, it's make sense a new thing will not always successful.

The PL standings are heating up, as all the teams at the top have almost the same number of points. Some of them are Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Nottingham Forest, Brighton, Fulham, Newcastle and Aston Villa. This is all due to the unstable performance of several teams such as Manchester City who lost to Brighton last week. In another story, Liverpool are safe with 28 points in first place, it will be interesting to see the PL longer.

If anybody thinks that Liverpool will not win the League title this season then that person does not like Liverpool, I know the season is still long and Liverpool will meet some strong opponents but with the performance of Liverpool they are in good shape to win the League trophy, Liverpool is ahead of all the team in Premier League and it will be very difficult for any of the team to achieve a point that will make them feel like competing with Liverpool.
I am a Liverpool fan and when Klopp has decide to withdraw from his position it's break my heart because i love him and what Klopp done in Liverpool it's mean a lot because with minimum budget of money Klopp can bringing Liverpool to broke the domination of Manchester City and Liverpool also has successfully to gets several trophies under Klopp so i highly doubt Liverpool without Klopp will be performing better moreover i don't know who is Arne Slot because he name is not looks familiar for me

But surprisingly Liverpool under Arne Slot is very impressive even now they can achieve several winning streak in all competitions but to talking about the title it is too early because Premier league even still not reached half is season so in my opinion the most important for Liverpool now is how to managed their consistency for each matches and i think this is more important rather than thinking about the title

The management has made the right decision by firing Erik Ten Hag if they continue to retain him Man United will continue their bad record this season, it was proven that after Ruud took over the position as temporary coach, he was able to provide quite good results, meaning that so far the team's fault does not lie in the condition of the players but in the coach's inability to build club, basically Erik Ten Hag is not the right coach for Man United.
They made two good decisions, sacking Ten Hag and appointing Ruud van Nistelrooy as their temporary coach. With Ruud, in latest four matches, they got 3 wins and 1 draw, that are positive results to bring good sentiment back in their club.

Another big decision is appointing the head coach position to Ruben Amorim, one of most interesting young coaches around Europe. We can not say it is a good decision or not for now, but time will help us knowing about success or failure of this decision. If Ruben Amorim can do his job successfully like Xabi Alonso in Bayer Leverkusen, it will be a very great success for Manchester United and can open a new successful era for their club too.

Ruud with his good performances as Manchester United's temporary head coach, will have better CV to join other clubs including big clubs.

What people don’t understand is you can’t be at the top forever, considering how competitive the leagues is becoming every season. They’ve been dominant for years doesn’t mean other team aren’t putting working hard to make it to the top. Beside the matches they lost didn’t mean they didn’t play well, rather other team out played them. So if there’s any reason Pep Guardiola will leave the managerial job at man city it must be him deciding to step down and not the club sacking him.
From what you said I think there is some truth to it because Pep Guardiola is a very respected and appreciated manager at Manchester City to this day. And about the defeats they have experienced in recent games is due to other factors such as injuries to key players who are often relied on and also the performance of other teams who have been much better this season. So I don't think there is anything wrong with Pep Guardiola and also with Manchester City because the team is currently experiencing player injuries even though only four players are still recovering to this day.
We cannot judge Pep Guardiola's performance only in his last few matches because since the beginning Pep has built Manchester City very strong and they have even won everything so don't just because they slumped in the last few matches Pep is blamed, I don't think so and Manchester City's slump in performance in the last few matches is inseparable from the many players who are injured and that is normal, all teams have felt that way and I am also sure that Manchester City has the strength to be able to rise again.

It just funny that Manchester United fans happy to see their big team beat small teams at home, I mean it has been expected Manchester United should've won. It's a bare minimum for big teams.
I think this shows that Manchester United have been a mediocre team for the last few seasons. Of course United are one of the best teams in England and they have a great history. But Manchester United are not a "top team" in the EPL at the moment after looking at their performances last season. The defeats and mistakes they made have made people not put United on the same level as City, Arsenal or Liverpool. So a good run of results in the last few games since ETH was sacked will certainly please United fans. I hope they can get back to their best and be one of the title contenders after years of being considered a mediocre club.

Man U is a great team and Ruud as an interim manager has shown that the red devils can bounce back when led by a strong hand. Historically, this season's result is their lowest at this stage since 1986/87 and the least goals scored since 1973/74. Hence, the new managerial team have lots of improvements and work to do.
The management has made the right decision by firing Erik Ten Hag if they continue to retain him Man United will continue their bad record this season, it was proven that after Ruud took over the position as temporary coach, he was able to provide quite good results, meaning that so far the team's fault does not lie in the condition of the players but in the coach's inability to build club, basically Erik Ten Hag is not the right coach for Man United.

Previously Guardiola had never lost four consecutive games in all competitions in his career as a coach, although no one wants such a bad record, but it will always be the first time that it happens. Manchester City's poor record since being handled by Guardiola has not made the management worried, they will continue to trust Pep as the coach based on what he has given to the club so far. A decline in performance can happen to any club, maybe now it's Manchester City's turn to enter a bad period in recent years.

The injuries suffered by several players have changed their game plan and direction, everyone is very aware of that because Pedri and KDB play a very big role in the midfield. Guardiola still has the ability to change everything, I'm sure, he won't let the snowball get bigger.
Manchester City has gone through several bad periods, even last season they experienced something like this even though they did not experience 4 consecutive defeats, but I think it is natural for a team to experience a slump, but it all comes back to how the team can rise and I do not doubt Pep Guardiola, he is experienced enough and he has solved problems like this so it is possible for it to be handled again now.

It is undeniable that injuries to several players have caused Manchester City to get bad results and made it difficult for Pep to rotate players because of the limited players available at this time, but I am not worried because this is all a matter of time and Pep will definitely be able to solve this problem.

with the many defeats he has experienced by Manchester City, of course it is normal for someone to think like you, but for me I think it will definitely be difficult for Pep to be fired by Manchester City. As for being fired, it will definitely be in an honorable way, for example because his contract has expired. finished which finally made Manchester City let him go. but it is true, as you said, it will definitely be difficult for Manchester City to fire Pep even with a losing streak, for example, as you said, losing 8 times in a row.

Pep Guardiola has of course coached Manchester City for a long time and of course has brought Manchester City to many titles, so I think with the consecutive defeats that Manchester City is currently experiencing, I don't think Manchester City will be able to fire Pep, especially now that Manchester City is still is in the runner up position in the standings which of course there is still time for Manchester City to be able to compete even better and overtake Liverpool's position.

It is true that this is a new situation for Pep, and of course this is a challenge for Pep, but so far I am still confident in Pep's abilities and he will definitely improve Manchester City's performance soon. Of course, fluctuations in team performance are normal and sometimes strong teams can suffer consecutive defeats, of course this applies to all clubs, including Manchester City. Of course, we are just waiting for time to see Manchester City's next match and see whether Pep can improve Manchester City or not.

No sane Manchester city fan will want to see Pep Guardiola get fired because of some poor results from the previous games. Man has broken records and have given man city the highest trophy any manager in their history has ever won.

They’ve been dominant for years doesn’t mean other team aren’t putting working hard to make it to the top.

Yea, you are correct and I also share the same sentiment as you bro, I believe that at this particular point, if the hierarchy of Manchester city are compelled to decide the future of pep guardiola right now, they will be more than happy to extend his stay at the club because I believe that these people knows their job and everything pertaining to football management, they knows that everything that has a beginning must also have an end, so as era, and due to the fact that age and lack of form has real cash up with most of the lads at Manchester city, their dominance is gradually coming to an end, so it would be absolutely stupid for the fan of Manchester city to be calling for the head of pep guardiola.

What they should do in my own opinion is to try to convince him to stay and build a must more younger and vibrant squad, that will be able to deliver and dominate the English premier league in the nearest future.

Certainly, firing Guardiola before the termination of his contract with Manchester City at the end of this season is not a good decision for the Manchester City management. He has uplifted the team to very high ends previously unattained by City. The last four losses are a letdown, but considering how much he already gave to Manchester City, Guardiola has already brought home so much silverware, including the one everyone wanted, the Champions League. He transformed the style of play for City into one very much based on cohesion and dominance in multiple competitions.
Pep Guardiola is a legendary coach with his successful career from Barcelona, Bayern Munich to Manchester City. It's hard to find another coach who can replace Guardiola successfully and bring titles and domination like what he has done with Manchester City last 6 years.

This season looks to be not too good for Manchester City but the season is long so that Manchester City can come back. They have some big disadvantages for making a come back, most considerably their player injuries and lack of good replacements. It's hard to imagine a rich club like Manchester City now don't have enough players for playing and rotating.

I don't know why they let Julian Alvarez left their club in the summer because he is very useful for them as a substitution and especially if Haaland is injured, Alvarez is a perfect replacement. Maybe the player no longer want to stay in Manchester City and play with a substitution role, or maybe Manchester City didn't try their best to keep Julian.

Arsenal is the one I was thinking they are going to challenge Liverpool but seeing their performance this season shows that they are not in better shape than last season, Arsenal's game against Chelsea surprised me because Arsenal missed the chances that they would have scored a goal and earn a three-point in the match, although both teams played well Arsenal should have won the match because we always see Arsenal as a strong team than Chelsea.

This is the first time under Guardiola's leadership, feeling the pressure. Manchester City are in trouble after losing four consecutive matches in all competitions. Should everything be questioned at this blue club as the injury list grows longer? Manchester City's defense is currently in a state of alarm, with Pep Guardiola forced to rely on 19-year-old center-back Jahmai Simpson-Pusey in the match against Brighton.
Five points behind title rivals Liverpool before the international break. If they do not find a solution to overcome the injury storm and regain their form soon, the Etihad team risks being left behind by Liverpool in the championship race as soon as December ends, similar to the scenario that happened in the 2019/20 season.
