I really don't understand what is wrong with Tottenham these days. Right now they are about to beat Everton barely although their opponent has been playing with ten players for a long time. It looks like Tottenham really needed this incident to happen for getting a win out of this match. Besides their performance is still not impressive at all. They aren't able to create many dangerous attacks now. They don't have so many goal attempts I mean and I don't know how they are like this now.
They have really great attackers in fact but they still can't be that much productive at all. In this way Tottenham can continue to have huge difficulties in finishing the season in top four to tell the truth. They can really have a hard time keeping Kane in the team as well.

The fight for the third position has just begun. Newcastle , Tottenham and Manu will have to prove who deserve the spot more. But from the look of things it is Manu and Newcastle who has higher chance of filling in the third and fourth positions because Tottenham has played more matches than the other two and if the fail to win todays match it will be more trouble for them..
At this time, Spurs have pocketed a goal through Harry Kane's penalty, this should have been maintained until the end of the match, because Everton had lost one player, it should have been easier for Spurs.But still the chances are higher are Newcastle and Manchester United because they have games left and if they all win then the point difference will also be different for Spurs but it must be maintained for Spurs not to be too far from the others with the hunt for UCL tickets.
You're totally right, in fact Potter's situation has really been under threat since he signed for such a big project from Chelsea. Everyone is relieved now that Graham Potter has been sacked, but fans always expect a coach who can make a positive impact on a team's performance, so his replacement must do better. I see Julian Nagelsmann as the closest candidate to replace Graham Potter, I think he is a coach who has a strong vision for his team even though he was also sacked by Bayern Munich.
Chelsea's situation has now changed will Nagelsmann become a reality to become the coach of Chelsea and make an even more positive impact on his team?It looks like it is because Julian Nagelsmann will be the most likely candidate to be chosen by Chelsea, his experience is quite good and with his long term vision if bound later with Chelsea but fans still hope for the best when they are looking for a new coach.
I think Chelsea has been dissatisfied with Graham Potter for a long time, it's just that it seems they are still hesitant to fire him because the season is not over yet. But, in the end, their patience had run out. Of course, they were furious with Graham Potter's accomplishments so far. We all know that he was previously expected to be a fresh breeze for Chelsea but apparently he failed to realize these expectations.

It looks like for now Chelsea fans are genuinely relieved after Potter's dismissal. he showed nothing during his tenure and only made Chelsea worse. Hopefully this will also be a lesson for Todd not to be too hasty when dismissing a great coach like Tuchel.
On the other hand at the moment Nagelsmann is indeed one of the real talks but with this they also have to fight with Tottenham because Tottenham also want his services at this time. The worst thing is that they are also preparing to face Madrid and with a new coach they really need to move a bit quicker now.

This is the right decision although late. Potter should have been dismissed due to Chelsea's poor performance. During his six months in charge of Chelsea, Potter only won 12 wins, eight draws and 10 defeats from 31 matches. There have been 33 goals scored and 31 conceded and now the Blues have fallen to 11th place.

We're definitely relieved, this has been our worst season in the premier league for the last 20+ years, Graham Potter turned us into a team anybody can come to get points off us both home and away. We didn't have any respect in teb eyes of any team. I hate it when English coaches rush to take role that they should clearly know are bigger then a them. Just like Lampard, Graham Potter should now be regretting taking the coaching role at Chelsea. This English coaches need to go get their coaching skills well developed.
Chelsea just exposed Graham Potter as an average coach and all the success he had at Brighton was just because the players were good as they're doing very well even after he left the club. He should go take so vacation to enjoy his money because he has successfully scammed Chelsea of a lot of money. When he gets back then he should go take more classes on coaching.
He was very good at Brighton but his capacity is only for a small club I think and he is still not able to make a big club better and this is also a drop in performance of course for Potter and he has to realize that this was the wrong decision in the first place.
Now he needs to make some moves for a team that is not that big anymore to boost his popularity and of course improve the image which is currently very bad in the eyes of Chelsea fans and football observers.
The match between Everton and Tottenham is currently on now and they have played for the first 45 minutes and no side has gotten a goal. Tottenham is in control of the game but the Everton team is resisting their attacks and also using counterattacks. Kane and Sung have improved in their game but Kane have also missed some clear opportunity to score. I just have to accept that the Everton defense is doing a good job. The match officiating to me seems to be poor because Tottenham is getting too many privileges. Some fouls on Everton players have been overlooked by the referee and the fans are not happy about that. Maybe the second half will produce more entertaining football and goals.
HALF-TIME: EVERTON 0-0 TOTTENHAMBoth teams are fighting for winning. However, there is a good opportunity for Tottenham if they can use it, they will be able to catch the 3rd position. Everton, on the other hand, is not giving any concessions, they also want to ensure the team's victory. Tottenham has kept ahead in various book makers. However, some have predicted that the match will be low scoring and the results of the current match indicate the same thing.
~snip~
yeah right. The competition for the top 4 is very fierce at the moment. Newcastle and Manchester United also have the same number of points as Tottenham at the moment. and yes it is true that Manchester United and Newcastle have the advantage as they have more opportunities to get more points from postponed matches. so the opportunity for Tottenham at this time only has to continue to win in the remaining matches if you want to survive in the race for seats in the top 4. because Tottenham doesn't look like it doesn't have games postponed. so that Tottenham has no other opportunity to add points other than having to continue to win in the remaining matches.45 minutes have been played in the Tottenham versus Everton match. Still, it is goalless
. Neither team was able to break the deadlock. I am not going to be happy if this match does end in a draw.
I expect to see a Tottenham win. Because you know, that is going to make the table a lot more interesting than it already is right now. I actually do not care much if Everton wins, because personally, Everton losing is going to make things a lot more interesting going forward.
Both Everton and Spurs have played a total of 29 matches and surely the two teams will do everything to get points in this match. But spurs, who have a clear target in front of their eyes, will definitely not waste this opportunity to reach 3rd place in the standings and I agree with you that Spurs have to steal points in this match so that this goal can be achieved. But Everton also don't want to lose because they also have a goal to be safer to avoid the relegation zone. I think this match is quite serious for Spurs, they might be able to win by a narrow score, but a draw with both teams scoring goals is also still open.
The match is still goalless but Tottenham is keeping control of the ball. So, I think if anyone is going to win this match, it is going to be Tottenham. I can see, Everton is actually doing a good job trying to defend against Tottenham. It is going to be a win for Everton if they can somehow get 1 point from this match. But at the same time, Tottenham cannot afford to do that, Tottenham has to win anyhow.
As the day approaches, Manchester City is getting increasingly nervous about playing Liverpool since Liverpool is an experienced team, and Manchester City is terrified of them and Liverpool they will try to hold Manchester City in every way .Arsenal Leeds I saw a news about Saka being player of the month the boy actually deserves it is young and a good striker and play a very important role in Arsenal. it will be very entertaining. Tomorrow game is already sure for Arsenal. The Premier League is continuing with interesting matches, all are difficult games to predict.
And Manchester united ultimately lost the game to Newcastle last night, very shameful for the once champion league trophy holder and this time it is happening with a smaller club like Newcastle United just to prove how weak man united has become in recent time. 
lately any team match has become very difficult to predict. even the Everton vs Tottenham match I think will be a little difficult to predict. in this match Everton actually benefited because they played as the host. but in terms of the quality of the game Tottenham is superior so maybe a draw will be more likely to happen. but from the last 5 meetings between these two teams, of course, Tottenham is far superior. i.e. 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. so the biggest chance in this match is a draw or victory for Tottenham. but because the recent matches have had many surprises, it's no wonder that Everton can surprise us in this match if they win.
Everton played a home game, I think they are also good to hope for maximum points. But based on what I saw, Tottenham dominated this game and they built their attack despite failing in the first half so far.I tend to get the impression that Tottenham could win this game but they need to capitalize on their chances well in the second half. Everton will try to make their players defend while counterattacking, but this scheme will definitely not always be good if Tottenham really press in the second half. Now the first half is over, Tottenham are good but haven't got a goal yet.
Don't even mention it, the Chelsea of yesterday was a big disappointment and I believe it's time that Graham Potter leaves the club. There is no more excuse for him with the last match against Aston Villa, it shouldn't be that bad, not even a goal scored, to the point that Villa was the one that scored twice. This is a display of shame and clearer that the issue in the club is more than what people envisaged.
Potter seems to have to realise he does not deserve to coach Chelsea. The 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa has given a huge disappointment to supporters. Indeed, Aston Villa played very well, kpier Emiliano Martinez successfully frustrated Chelsea players. He deserves to be the best player last night. Aston Villa successfully implemented a deep defensive strategy and scored from counterattacks. Mudryk also created plenty of chances but Martinez was always able to deny the ball.

But from the look of things it is Manu and Newcastle who has higher chance of filling in the third and fourth positions because Tottenham has played more matches than the other two and if the fail to win todays match it will be more trouble for them..
Newcastle United were the better team in the game yesterday, I expected United to put up a good challenge to secure their 3rd position in the league but they failed to get even a point from the meeting and have now moved down to fourth position. Newcastle dominated the game in both halves and gave Manchester United no opportunity to turn the game around.
Newcastle was in their best peak against manchester united and it was a deserve win for the magpies. Eddie Howe had a Superb victory over Erik Ten Hag and the club priority is to qualify for the UCL spot this season. Willock and Wilson performance was superb and they outshined united players. David De Gea did his best but the two goals he conceded was from flying headers from his opponents. The red devil's have to work on their backlines because the area is weak and prone to opponents.tottenham vs everton is still 0-0, and dyche seems to be using a defensive strategy for Everton, while stellini is using an attacking strategy with kane in front (single striker)
If I was the owner of Chelsea I would have fired Potter a long time ago. They should have fired him sometime after the world cup. But it was a good thing they gave him enough time so he wont have any excuse for playing so badly.
He was very good at Brighton but he was so poor at Chelsea. All they play at Chelsea was busy football, they always seem o be doing something but they're not actually doing anything. They jut pass the ball around without actually creating chances to score goal. Then there is the poor defending. A team that has spend that amount of money on defense shouldn't be conceding that amount of goals.
Chelsea should take their time and look for a very good manager that can actually rebuild and work with the signings they have gotten.
That I will do too. Since Chelsea first chose Potter it has made me doubt about his ability. It was proven that for almost a season he had not shown a good coach. Maybe he is too confused because he has good players at such a high price. It looks like it's just going to waste money because there are no achievements to be had this season. There are a lot of coaches who I think have more experience managing big clubs. Chelsea are a big club, they have to choose a great coach who has a history of achievement better than Potter.He was very good at Brighton but he was so poor at Chelsea.

Everton game against Tottenham Hotspur will start soon, Everton are still struggling even with the change of coach they are still in the relegation zone, while Tottenham Hotspur in the other hand just replaced their coach, and once any new coach comes into any football club, they always do anything to get that first result and even the players will be in their best of form for them to get game time, so the game tonight is going to be a win for Tottenham Hotspur and winning the game tonight will take them above Newcastle United and Manchester United.
If Tottenham Hotspur will win today, they will pass both ManU and Newcastle but don't forget that Spurs gonna have 2 matches above of these two teams, so the ranking is just temporary.This is their first match without Conte as manager. They are favourite in this game vs struggling Everton, they don't have excuses to not win.

Well, some body just lost his job there, I don't know why most of the Chelsea fans perceived potter as the major obstacle standing against the club's success in this season and a lot of them have called for Potter's sack and the news of his sack that came over the weekend look as if it came late for some of the fans.
Potter was on the brink of losing his job like a month ago but the board management gave him the chance he needed. The moment that Chelsea lose their last game against Villa was the trigger for him to be sacked. If you look at the statistics, Chelsea won in every aspect of the game. Possession, passes, chances created, shots on goal literally everything but they lost the game which was sucks
Let's forget it Chelsea's coach was not the main problem with the club's performance since the players are already not motivated due to the instability in the club, just in this season alone the club has charged several coaches which is something that is not good for the image of the club since their want to recover why sack the coach.
Everton vs Tottenham has just started. Of course in this match I am going to keep Tottenham ahead. Yes, this support is a little bit biased myself because I believe Tottenham is certainly better compared to Everton.
But another thing is you know, Tottenham is currently fighting for the third position of the table. So, they cannot make any mistakes right now. Especially in these types of matches where Tottenham is the favorite. They also have to stay ahead of Manchester United, because Manchester United has played less matches than Tottenham.

Newcastle deserves to win this match. They played with such determination, which making them the superior team on the pitch. But, what impressed me a lot about their solid defense, that prevented the opposition from scoring any goals throughout the match. Man United's performance was quite underwhelming and did not live up to expectations. They were outplayed by Newcastle, and frankly, they deserved to lose by an even larger margin. Newcastle has now moved above Man United in the standings and claimed the third spot in the league.
