Liverpool has been very unstable this season, it's no more making sense that they could barely win 3 consecutive matches in a role. The system is no more well coordinated Like it was in last season. Klopp is yet to figure out the actual problem, but the problem isn't far from him if u ask me. Apart from Chamberlain and Carvalho, Jones, Melo and Keita are second-option midfielders, but the four are the only young midfielder in Liverpool, the rest are 31 and above. To me, Liverpool needs young creative midfielders, if Klopp can fix that, I think Liverpool will be better again.

I think the only problem in 1 year is not the lack of young midfielders. Something is not right in Liverpool. As a result, consecutive points are lost. I guess Nunez couldn't adapt to the club. Even though he gets a chance to form every match, he misses a lot of chances. There are also clear positions. Considering that compared to Haaland at the beginning of the league, the biggest problem for Liverpool seems to be in the striker right now.
I know that nunez is performing poorly and missing a lot of chances but liverpool defense is also a problem they conceided many goals and we have seeing a decline in van djik performance which affected the whole team, they almost conceided as much goals as they did in the last season and we haven't seen many changes in the players, this seem like a technical or psychological problem that can be fixed by the manager.

Manchester City - Chelsea is 3-0 and almost half time. It went very fast there. It just shows how volatile team Chelsea are. Winner of the CL a few years ago. I think the score will go even higher as Chelsea now has to take built-in risks. Or maybe accept this defeat and make sure no players get injured in the 2nd half. Even if Chelsea were to change course, it would still be a hopeless mission at Manchester City. There is a basic place for Ziyech. Both teams seem to play in the strongest formation in this match.
I expected Man City to win, and they did not disappoint. I know it is not yet over yet but with the kind of game play I have seen in the first half, I doubt if Chelsea will be able to catch up. They are clearly the favorite and are dominating the game while showing off so much confidence.
Walker, Phil, Cole Palmer, and Mehrez are playing excellently well.
Looking forward to a 4-1 scoreline at the end of the game.

Manchester united will absolutely do everything to win this match, the players absolutely didn't forget the humiliation of the first match when city destroyed theme with whole 6 goals, players will do everything to get their revenge or at least avoid losing again, this will be a good opportunity for arsenal to extend the gap again
Manchester city have a superior team in the league, the team is star studded and good enough to compete at every level of competition across Europe but playing against Manchester United gives a different feeling as United will always cause trouble for them. Manchester United are in good form at the moment so it wouldn't be an easy one for Manchester City in this feature because we witnessed how City struggled to get a goal against Chelsea in midweek.

Liverpool's current condition is not too easy because indeed they have not been able to make any progress so far and even tend to be a little lacking.
Apart from anything at this time it is really quite an emergency condition for Klopp if they are still like this.
Liverpool want to be in the top 4 but their game is still not able to be at that level and when compared to several other big clubs like Manchester United or Tottenham who want to target being in the same position they are still losing. This is clearly not very good and they will have to make a real splash if there is to be any certainty about Klopp's future.

In general, if Liverpool will fly out of the Champions League at an early stage, plus at the end of the season they will not get into the top 4, no one will be surprised if Klopp is fired. But it's quite an interesting situation: can any coach (other than a City manager with infinite money) guarantee a top 4 finish with such a crazy level of competition in the Premier League? It seems to me that no.

I saw the development of Man United in the years to this day. After Ten Hag came, then bought a few star players and Ronaldo left, today it looks that the players are better and have a mentality. Ten Hag seems to have begun to successfully change the player's mental pattern.
If they maintain their best form I think the UCL Zone is easy to achieve at the end of this season. Ten Hag's rotation of players is also good, he always gives a break by replacing the core players in the last 10-20 minutes. Besides, I think at the moment Ten Hag should think about finding an alternative to Rashford.
At the moment Manchester United are still quite consistent after the second half of the season and Erik Ten Hag has started smoothly in carrying out the strategy and providing a strong mentality, especially to the players who are now increasingly impressive, especially Rashford, he is an attacker who can score goals in every game.
It's just that the next two weeks will be a threat to Ten Hag how not to face Manchester city and Arsenal is not easy but a tough task that must be done with winning points, but the important thing now is that at least Man United won't be as weak as the first half of the season because Ten Hag has already evaluated what went wrong, so it's going to be a hot debut for Ten Hag and thrilling.

Newcastle started to lose points in the recent weeks. I can understand the draw against Arsenal because it was one of the most difficult matches for them in the league. Newcastle actually did good about drawing with Arsenal in Emirates. It is better than losing against the leader in an away match in the end. However the Leeds draw was an extra. It was a very comfortable match for Newcastle on paper. Because Leeds were a team having huge problems on their defense line. But somehow this match ended goalless.  Grin

Manchester United benefited from these two weeks very well by reaching the same points with Newcastle. I really appreciate the work ten Hag has done lately. But they need to keep this up to consolidate their position in top 4. Because their job about qualifying for the Champions League isn't going to be easy at all.
Recent fixtures were tough for Newcastle. Let me remind you that that they are an average team who usually find it hard to even make it into top 10.  They could have won against Leeds though but Arsenal was a difficult one from the start. I think Newcastle can still find their 3 rd position back but that all depends on if United will drop points now or not. United under ten Haag have been solid so far but they tend to make some mistakes in certain games and Magpies will be looking for it.

What a draw at the FA Cup too. That exactly Man City and Chelsea have been drawn against each other. You can draw all teams from all types of divisions and then you get this match. The FA Cup is a prestigious prize in England. Man City are now 1-0 up, but we are only halfway through the first half. It is curious that a return has to be played if the match ends in a draw. In England they already have a busy schedule, of course these kinds of regulations do not help at all. You would be better off just doing an extension and adding up on penalties like in any tournament.

Brentford seems to be worth considering for this season. since November Brentford continues to show positive match results. in the match before the break Brentford managed to beat Manchester City. and after the season restart even Brentford has yet to lose. even in the last game yesterday Brentford was able to beat Liverpool quite surprisingly. Brentford's strategy of defending and counterattacking proved effective.
In the last 5 games, they have 3 wins and 2 draws and they are undefeated.  This is a success for them.  They currently have 6 wins and these 6 wins were also achieved against important teams.  They will face Bournemouth next week and they have a good chance of beating them.  They have a form on the rise and it looks like their uptrend will continue.

From the start, Ten Hag did not target any titles this season. he just wants his troops to win game after game. although it had slumped at the start of the season, in fact The Red Devils were able to rank 4th in the Premier League standings. in fact, Man United is almost close to Man City, only 4 points away. the meeting match between Manchester Utd vs Manchester City, can be a place to prove as well as reduce the point difference between these two teams. for sure, Man United is on the right track.
Arsenal, can slip up anytime, City is no exception. because City will be visiting Old Trafford, the headquarters of The Red Devils. I know that City's chances are higher than The Red Devils. however, it is possible that Erik Ten Hag's squad will surprise and overthrow Manchester City in the match later.
I agree with you, for Man United now maybe the result will be a little different from their last game against Man City. Even though the squad they have remains the same, it's just that after the world cup, Man United's players have increased drastically compared to usual. Rashford played freely and was able to cover each others with his partner.
Erik Ten Hag has at least given Man United victory after victory, from his last 5 matches including 2 matches in the FA Cup managed to make a landslide victory. In front of his opponent is Man City, of course it is not an easy task for defenders to guard against Haaland movements.

Manchester United have been playing really well after the World Cup but I have to say that those wins were not against bigger teams. Their next match against Manchester City is going to be the decider of whether the coach is on the right track or not.

As you said Manchester United are currently only four points behind Manchester City so this game is going to work as a six pointer game, if Manchester United managed to win this game that is going to give a really good morale boost to their squad as well as make them the third-placed team in EPL.

That's true, the Liverpool mission will not be easy at all because all other teams in the top spots are preforming well comparable to Liverpool, they need a lot of hard work and chance if they want to get a champoins league spot
Liverpool has small chance to end this season at the top 4. The team is still wasting the chance to take the full points and climbing up. I think that liverpool will be playing in the europa league next season.
Liverpool must do so many things to solve its problem and the most important thing to get a replacement for nunez. This useless players keep being used by klopp which didn't even make sense to see that happened with it. I guess that if liverpool shall buy a proper striker rather than keep wasting the points that can be earned by liverpool by playing nunez in any game of liverpool
Obviously it will not be easy for Liverpool to occupy the top 4 positions in the standings. Besides they need to improve their overall game, also the competitors who are now in the top 4 are now playing well, so it will be difficult to wait for them to drop points. Manchester City, Newcastle, Manchester united, Tottenham are names that are difficult to beat by other Premier League teams. I'm not trying to say that it's impossible, but it's less likely the way they are now. Let's just see Manchester United continue to collect points in every game they play.

This season has been a very tough season for Liverpool since being handled by Klopp. The number of injured players and the difficulty of adapting to new players is a problem that is difficult to fix so that it has an impact on performance on the field. Recently they have also confirmed that their mainstay defender Virgil Van Dijk must also be sidelined due to injury, of course this will add to the problems that will be faced. I think it will be very difficult for Liverpool to finish in the top four unless there is a miracle.

Yeah it's been a tough season for Liverpool and actually I am bit amazed and glad also that Liverpool owners aren't putting pressure on Klopp. They believe in him still and want him to continue which is very rare in football right now. Losing Van Dijk must be hard for them but I think they still an put a decent defense line to face decent opponents in the premier league.They need their scoring form back again and a good mid. I wonder what happened to Bellingham to Liverpool rumors.

Liverpool has an inconsistent form. Even though they had two wins after the world cup ended, but their game wasn't really that good. Even in their last game, they lost against Brentford. The top 4 isn't an impossible target for them, but it's also not a target they can achieve easily because Liverpool's competitors are good teams that I think have better performance than Liverpool at the moment. Liverpool actually has very good players (even they have spent a lot of money to sign Darwin Nunez) but somehow their appearance is far from being in good form.

Brentford's strategy of defending and counterattacking proved effective.

Every season in the EPL one of the teams becomes the underdog and plays outstandingly well. The season that team is Brentford in my opinion. Currently, they are the ninth in the league with 26 points and they have won six games. In the last game, they defeated Liverpool which was really unexpected for both teams.

As you said they are defending quite well and their counter-attacks seem really deadly at times. We can see that this is proving to be positive for them because they are winning games with this strategy. I hope that they will be able to make the top six in the later parts of the season.
