the match between fulham and Tottenham will be an interesting game, Fulham will be looking forward to make the most of the home advantage this night as Marco Silva's side prepare to take on Tottenham team that position just one place and two points ahead of them,  Four of the last six league meetings between these two clubs has ended with both teams scoring and over 2.5 goals being produced, and I see this match following suit.for the past seven games. Before this match, Tottenham Hotspur hadn’t lost to Fulham on the road in a league game for the past seven games. an impressive road record against them. So this match should be seen as a bounce back for Tottenham.

Everton in their worst form this season with recording only 3W 6D 11L and ranked at the bottom position of the relegation zone. The fans are not happy about the team current form, so sacking of frank lampard was not a shocking news to me since he was doing poorly in the league. Last season, when the team had Richardlison, they also struggle to win games inother to escape the relegation zone. However there's no single time on the timer for Everton but this is football, anything can happen.

 Mudryk and joao Felix are also new in the EPL, but their present in chelsea game was well seen , and that was a good sign that they will be of beneficial important to the team in subsequent matches. I pray it should be a matter of time for weghorst ,because from the match against Arsenal ,I'm beginning to sense that he may not fit into Manchester United's style of play. Even though he is new in the league, I have said it before and I still say that he wasn't an important figure in the match.

Gary Neville has always been a controversy in his tweets indeed it doesn't make sense to say after his former team lost or he feels disappointed to lose in the last minute.
I even saw that on Twitter there would be a petition signer that Gary Neville could no longer comment on Arsenal, but this was retweeted by Gary Neville that he would sign this petition. lol

It is too bad that Gary doesn't believe Arsenal has got what it takes to win this premier league title. The better team might Manchester City, but with still an outstanding game between both teams, the one who looses or draws is going to find it hard to regain the points, that is if they can before the season is over .
For Everton however, sacking Lampard might be a right move, but we know that when it gets down to who needs to get kicked in the nuts for poor performance, it has got to be the manager. Everton are seriously considering hiring Marcelo Bielsa, who was the former Leeds United manager . He is 67years old with an experience bigger than Lampards'. Let's see how that plays out.

The sign was so obvious that it will happen. If I were Lampard I would have resigned myself without waiting to be sacked. Just that I don't know who has the more chances of being re-employed faster between who resigns because of non performance and who was sacked.
I wish it won't be late for Everton because they waited for so long before sacking their coach. It will be a hard job for the new coach

Among the matches played yesterday, the most important one was, as I mentioned yesterday, the match between arsenal and manchester united. Arsenal showed us again that they want the championship this year. It was the hosts who played better throughout the match and had more chances. I must say that Arsenal deserved to win the match. This match was very important for them and it was not easy to beat Manchester United, the in-form team of the last weeks.

I'm a fan of United, but if there was a draw, it would be even more offensive than a defeat, since both teams would play in favor of City. In the next round, Arsenal will most likely beat Everton without any problems, and City are waiting for a difficult match with Tottenham, hopefully this time Tottenham will not fall apart after the first half and will be able to take points from City.

I have a feeling Tottenham will not lose for the 3rd time but this is a difficult opponent too Fulham are now on top of their performance while Tottenham are unstable I know Tottenham lost because they had a difficult match with a big team so they couldn't win but for tonight they have to be more consistent again because this concerns points that are getting closer to the bottom team if they lose it is clear that their current position will be in danger of being moved by another team, Conte's task will be more difficult but he must be able to win to save his team.

Even though it is away to Fulham I will try to bet on the Spurs at 2.15 odds I know the odds are higher but the gut feeling is towards the Spurs.

After MU was defeated by Arsenal. a former MU player seems to have made a comment which I think is a little "hurt". Gary Neville said that Man. City will win the title this season, he don't believe that Arsenal can win. These comments make sense, but he said this after his ex-team lost to Arsenal. Had those comments been said long ago I think its normal. but if afterwards, it's like disappointment
to see MU lose 

Newcastle had a good opportunity to make the point difference bigger with Manchester United this week but couldn't take advantage of it. They are on a tough duty to keep their presence in top 4 until the end of the season. They can't afford losing points easily in such games. Of course we shouldn't forget that Newcastle are an average team normally and this achievement is a really unexpected one. But they should continue to make their best effort to make the Champions League dream come true.

Crystal Palace are of course an unpredictable team. They stole one point from Manchester United also and they have been like a nightmare to Manchester City in some of their recent head-to-head games. But still Newcastle could have performed a little better than that there. I hope that they beat West Ham and make up for it.

With a winning percentage of just 15 he was lucky to have stayed this long, even Gerrard that was a months ago had better percentage (18). He now needs more of a break away from football and possibly consider coming back again because it hasn’t worked for him. His case just confirms the fact that not all great players could be great coaches.

To Everton, this is the right decision. The only problem and maybe the difficult one is getting the right manager. Although they are decent managers available but Everton buget and status won’t fancy many to come here. If Sam Allerdyce had been available he might be the best option in situations like this . Everton could actually contact Gerrard or even EX player Rooney for the job. Because I strongly doubt any top manager will take the job.


I don’t think Werghost needs more time to prove anything. From his game yesterday he showed that he lacked pace and Ten Hag should have known this from the time he scouted him. His other areas of play look decent to me, his pressing, hold up play and aerial battles were great. During yesterdays match we saw how he defended corners well. The main question now is does he fit into Ten Hag’s pattern? No because he is slow and man United need a speedy striker. As it is now Werghost will be be better coming off from the bench. But since United do not have any strike then Ten Hag needs to twerk his style a little bit to fit him. An SS like Bruno should be behind him for one-twos and then the wingers should be left wide for counter when he hold up play in the midfield. This could only work if United wingers are clinical to convert the chances like how Rashford did yesterday. United should also prioritize crossing more for him when he is in the box, yesterday’s match both Shaw and Wan Bissaka didn’t do more of that. I believe his aerial ability could bring goals for United

I can see that Wout Weghorst, who is already 30 years old, does not have any proud achievements as an attacker. You can see from his career history that he has never scored a goal. To be honest, I'm really worried that Manchester United bought the wrong players and just wasted money because they don't contribute to scoring goals.

Tottenham is not doing well at the moment. They can only win once, draw once, and have lost 3 times in their last 5 matches. So the game against Fulham will be tough for Tottenham because Fulham's performance was slightly better than theirs and Tottenham will play as guests. Besides that Fulham seems to have high motivation to win the match because this game is an opportunity to snatch 5th place from Tottenham, and I think Fulham has a pretty good chance of doing that.

Finally Everton were able to take this step because I think Everton should have done it a few weeks ago. But yes, at least this is still a quick decision not to give Lampard more time, because if Everton still gives Lampard more time, then it is very likely that Everton will find it even more difficult to get out of the relegation zone.
Also, sometimes when a new team fires its coach and then the team will be coached by an assistant coach for a while, usually they can get good results for the next match. It will be interesting to wait, whether Everton will be able to get back on their feet after sacking Lampard or will it be even more difficult.

Since Arteta took over, there has been a remarkable shift in the teams' thinking. They now have a winning mentality and don't settle for finishing in the top 4. I would say that the top players of the match included Zinchenko, Xhaka, and Nketiah.  Martinelli should have varied his game a little more rather than cutting inside too frequently. I know that Arteta will have no regrets signing Trossard. He will be a valuable asset to the team. Arsenal losing twice to City is not something I see happening. This team is too motivated.

Tottenham performance is not as tough like it used  to be when the season began and spur will be facing Fulham.  Fulham is not an easy team , it will be a challenging game for Tottenham and may not favour them based on their previous games.

His debut looks so bad. Just give him more time and we will see whether he can adapt to the united's playstyle or not. it seems like one match is not enough to know his potential with MU. Ten hag must give him more time to play. I hope that weghors will have some improvements in his performance with MU. MU fans are waiting for the result of his transfer. that will be very disappointed if weghorst keep performing the same thing like when MU was against arsenal.
I know that if weghorst has lots of potential to grow even better than it.

Lampard had it coming for himself because Everton are even worse in this season. If Everton made this decision on a later date maybe it would have been too late for them. But now they still have so many matches to play in the league. They can fix things in time if they bring the right manager for themselves. The most important thing for them is to get out of the relegation field and get away from it as much as possible. They can't target a higher goal than that to achieve for this season.

But they can make their investments for next season and they can return as the Everton we have known. They can fight for good positions in top 10 then.

Arsenal now has a complete squad that is fit for the task, and the last match against Man U was a needed one so that they would be points farther to sealing the league's trophy. It's not a matter of blabbing, the performance is clear, but kudos to Man U also, the club has greatly improved both in the centre and attacking. Perhaps, they need more to do with the defence, especially when they are playing with a club that is in form like Arsenal.

Conclusively, this is football, and one side must win which Arsenal claimed, still, Man U deserves their praise too.
