I cannot believe that Ronaldo, even after scoring so many goals, had a season with United where they sucked, and as soon as he left, United is back at UCL positions. Sure they are still nowhere near to win a title level yet, they would need a season or two to get there with some good additions and so forth. But that doesn't change the fact that we are talking about a situation where it looks like they are improving.

At this moment, it appears so. Manchester United do seem to be on track and now, its to see how far they could hold this up. I do not entirely blame Ronaldo for his performance at United though. Its hard for him most especially as per having conflicting thoughts, playing for a team you don't believe in or don't want to be in. You don't get to give your best that way, not when your out looking for trophies to your ne and your sight already shows nothing ahead.

Now, Eric Ten Hag has found a way to unite his team and make them encourage discipline within themselves such that, they are wholesome on the pitch each time, wants to play and give there best with every minute. That's how Manchester United is succeeding and let's hope a few loses won't break there spirit.

The question should not only be the time that Graham potter has not received as new Chelsea manager, we also consider why the time was not meant for Tuchel. The American style of laying of staff of newly acquired organisation is not fair. Manchester United had the same problems with Glaciers when they came in

The Brighton game is going to be really difficult for Liverpool honestly. Liverpool don't have a bad history in away games against Brighton recently in fact. However things are quite different this season as Liverpool are having a really inconsistent time period. They hardly beat Leicester but they couldn't do it against Brentford later. Brentford were able to make use of the weaknesses in Liverpool defense and midfield to score. It was an unacceptable loss and there is another coming soon if they don't do anything about this.

Interestingly Klopp still seems not to have figured out a way to make the players motivated. Of course they would make use of some transfers also but the team chemistry is not in good condition now. It needs to be fixed also.

Lucky United so far as they didn't show anything new or a great football style so I think this 2 winning streak will end next game as personally I don't see United catching an UCL spot for next year and that would be a great payback for Ronaldo treatment Cheesy

.

I cannot believe that Ronaldo, even after scoring so many goals, had a season with United where they sucked, and as soon as he left, United is back at UCL positions. Sure they are still nowhere near to win a title level yet, they would need a season or two to get there with some good additions and so forth. But that doesn't change the fact that we are talking about a situation where it looks like they are improving.

Newcastle has a game more than United too, so United could actually pass them as well, it's inevitable if you ask me. Having a terrible terrible season, followed up by being 3rd, and mind you they were second a year before, so only bad year they had was the year Ronaldo played, lol.

With the current conditions, this can actually happen, especially now that they have been very good in the last few matches.
Regardless of Ronaldo's presence or not, this is the development of the team and indeed it could be when their conditions are more stable without Ronaldo now.
Ronaldo is a very good player but this is not an individual and Ronaldo for Manchester United at the moment he is not very suitable. It's not the problem of his declining performance but his internal problems that make it difficult to match each other.

Losing 1-0 in the Premier League, and now they have to lose 4-0, not getting better but their situation getting worse when facing the same team. In a hurry, maybe that's the right word to describe how Chelsea's management made the decision to sack Thomas Tuchel. Graham Potter who was appointed as the next coach was even worse than the previous coach. Will they now do the same by firing Graham Potter again? The decisions to be taken are even tougher now for Chelsea's management to make their team even better.

I think firing coaches back is a bad thing. because the decline in Chelsea's performance was the result of Chelsea being too stingy in the player transfer market last year. and right now what Chelsea needs is not a new coach. But Chelsea really need a new flagship player. Chelsea must dare to pay the superior players they are after at high prices in the next player transfer market. because as we know in the previous transfer market Chelsea were too economical for their finances. and finally the players they are after are always unable to get them because they are unable to compete in bidding prices.

And Chelsea falls under Manchester City sword again in consecutive matches, Chelsea would now rethink their decision to sack Tuchel and employ their new head coach.

I believe Chelsea has had better games when they played under Tuchel than they are playing under this present coach, they lack game plan and the players were not able to connect with each other.

Even though this could be one of the things they can bet on because usually for the FA Cup sometimes big clubs don't really bring star players in every match they play but they lost quite absolutely in this match.
I think the regrets remain but hard hearted Todd will not admit this even though he will not be surprised later if things get worse in the EPL then Potter won't be at Chelsea for long.

Chelsea should win in the next two matches, to get one step ahead of Breantford and get rid of it backwards and to be in the next position, the clubs Chelsea will be facing are not that strong and it looks like Chelsea will have the upper hand against these two clubs. but Breantford has performed very well this season, this season Breanford has always shown good results, even so far Breanford has never lost, but right now the match is in progress, and Breandford's score is 1-0 behind against Wash Ham United.

Fulham will be a tough opponent for Chelsea in the upcoming match. Chelsea has lost balance in the standings table, 10th place in the standings table is a pretty bad ranking for Chelsea. Chelsea must win in the next two matches in order to improve their ranking in the standings. Meanwhile, if Chelsea fail to win the two matches, I think they will find it difficult to catch the top 4 ranks. Chelsea poor performance came suddenly and even this will be Graham Potter's job that must be done quickly to repair that gap in order to win in the away game to Craven Cottage stadium.

William will be looking forward to face his former club were he won the premier league
Since it's a London game between two London side's it will be full of surprised moments but Chelsea will win
All they have to to silence William from crossing the ball to Mitrovic as he will be eager to add to the goals achieved already

if you look at some of Manchester United's previous matches when they met Manchester City, they always lost in pretty disastrous conditions, both in the game and in the score.
It's a Derby and the truth is when things are like this of course the hope is that it's a decent game and not as one-sided as it was before.

The first statement cracked my ribs but yet, it's true. For the sake of form and maintaining the teams rhythm in Manchester United, let's hope history be that.

Ten Hag has come some length with his team of late. Even in the FA Cup from yesterday's game, they did manage a 3:1 win over Everton with the ever inform M. Rashford again on the score sheet, even though it was a penalty. Them facing Manchester City in the forth coming game week would be a test of how far they are willing to be in the race for the top 4 although, I don't still see them for a title contender in the league just yet.

Because basically it's a fact and we can't just let that fact go because we can't let go that Manchester United's last few seasons have been quite bad when they were in this derby.
On the other hand, the current conditions could still be helped if Manchester United put out the same performance as the previous match, but this is clearly difficult. We know Manchester City attack like that and they won't hold back anything like that in this game.

I really love what is happening to Chelsea right now because it was obvious that the owner and the board took a bad decision by sacking Thomas Tuchel without giving him much of time, and I did know that they're definitely gonna regret sacking Tuchel one day.
And now not long ago after the sack they are beginning to feel the heat and it won't end there , The current coach Potter is definitely on hot seat at this point in time and we could equally hear the sack news anytime soon.

What's happened with Chelsea is that it sucks where they want Graham Potter to be able to handle more than Thomas Tuchel but in fact it's worse and Graham Potter doesn't seem to have the potential to get Chelsea back on a better path as they have been losing a lot now and lost 4- 0 is an embarrassment to Graham Potter and coach.
This will be a hot rumor for Potter he will put more pressure on him because he doesn't bring Chelsea to the better maybe the management board will insist on what happens next whether to sack or keep him because this is the first season he has started at Chelsea while the contract is still long enough.

The mistake started from the management not giving Tuchel a chance to put things together, imagine a coach that gave the club one of the prestigious trophy in Europe football and was just sacked out of three loss in a game. Now Graham a replacement is even repeating the same , the management now can't sack graham due to how long his contract still is, and it's a pity if CFC keep playing this way under potter then conference league is where I see CFC heading to.

I am so much disappointed at Chelsea's performance in the FA cup competition against Manchester city. Poor defense, poor midfield and poor attack right from the first minutes to the end. FA cup was the last hope for Chelsea and I was expecting Porter to show more focus and all amount of seriousness , but rather, the remaining injury free players that were productive in the last epl match against Mancherster city he kept on bench and then brought few of them in after losing 3-0. Graham Porter is a failure.

I don't expect any positive result from this present squad played by Graham Potter losing two consecutive matches against Man City, Chelsea had been struggling with injuries to majority of their key players nine keys players, Reece James, Kante, Pulisic, Wesley Fofana, Sterling, Ruben Loftus-Cheek etc their team is not strong and formidable enough compared to Man City whose players are injury-free, many academy players is now drafted to their main squad, Tuchel won't make any difference with this squad with many inexperience players so sacking Graham Potter isn't the solution now, the board should take a decision whether to sign more players or continue with the present squad till those injured players returns.

I remember when Graham Potter had just been given the Chelsea job, and they were in some good form. So may people said that sacking Thomas Tuchel was a very good decision and Potter would bring in some silverware. I personally knew that English Media was just hyping Potter, and I think we can now see what's going on

Maybe sacking Tuchel was a wrong decision in the first place. The problem was probably not the manager at that time.

Now is not the time to question whether sacking Thomas Tuchel was the right decision or not. Now they better focus on improving their team which is going through a bad phase by repeatedly receiving defeats. Now they have Graham Potter and there is no point in regretting their decision to sack Thomas Tuchel. Now the choice is to keep trusting Graham Potter, or to do the same by firing him. But none of those options are the best, because there's no guarantee they'll be better. The realistic option is to stick with Potter at least until the end of the season.

I hope Tottenham start doing better after the big win against Crystal Palace the last time. It is like Kane is doing his best for the team to pull themselves together. He has reached 15 goals in the EPL already. It is nearly the half amount of the goals Tottenham have in the league at the moment. However even in the matches he performs in a great way, they still lose points as well. This wasn't one of them at least. Conte needs to find a way to maintain a good team effort for a long time.

Manchester United have already left them behind in the standings by having a four-win streak. Plus, Manchester United have a missing match as well. Tottenham had better continue to improve their results otherwise their chance of finishing in top 4 can be much lower in time.

It has been proven that the second tier players owned by Manchester City do have good quality too, because even though Manchester City did not play players like Haaland, Bruyne and Gundogan. The fact that Manchester City can still beat Chelsea in the FA Cup with a final score of 4-0, obviously this is a difficult problem for Graham Potter to return to a good performance for Chelsea.
Also, even though in the next match in the Premier League, Chelsea will play away against Fulham I think it's also not an easy job for Chelsea.

Due to the fact that at this moment Fulham are in a better position than Chelsea in the Premier League standings and yes, I also realize that their point difference is only three points.
But with these factors it is very possible for Fulham to be able to maintain their position, because when they play well defensively they will also play safe so they don't lose the match later. But yes, anything can still happen because this is also a good opportunity for both teams to be able to maintain their position and or improve their position, especially for Chelsea.

yes, let's see what will happen to Chelsea in the next match against Fullham. because this week's match Chelsea has played very badly. in two games against Man City. in the Premier league 2 days ago Chelsea lost at home with a score of 1-0. and recently Chelsea lost again in the FA Cup to Man City by surprise, with a score of 4-0. Man city as the host in this match has given satisfaction to their supporters. And it seems true that Graham Potter will have a tough job to get Chelsea to their best game again next week. and if Fullham is able to beat Chelsea in the game then I think it will add to the disappointment of the Chelsea fans. And we need to know that Chelsea really need top players in their team. because the current composition of Chelsea's players is really still not good.

Chelsea are currently loosing by three goals against Manchester City after loosing them them by a goal before now. It looks like Pep continued with the strategy that he applied to get against goal in the second half of their last encounter in this game, and it has worked well. Chelsea are having many challenges, no good attacker, injured players and a coach that looks like he has not had a good time settling in. If Chelsea lose against Fulham to continue this loosing run, calls for his sack will intensify by supporters of the club.

After the last match between Chelsea and Manchester City, one would assume that the humiliation they brought to Stamford Bridge was over. I had anticipated that they would at least do the same to Manchester City at Etihad, but I can't help but notice how Mahrez has continued to belittle them with back-to-back goals. I mean, 4 goals is way too many for what they played in the FA Cup, and Halaand wasn't even present for the match. Also, take a look at their last 5 matches it is poor, Potter would be faced with several queries if Chelsea lost to Fulham in their upcoming match.

Kante is back from Injury after missing important matches, I don't know why he wasn't presence today, the same thing goes for Aubamayang and yet they weren't even on the substitution and its not like Fulham a strong team they will want to move their most preferably squad to, something is definitely wrong with Chelsea.
